Water scarcity is a huge global issue. More than 2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water—a situation set to worsen due to climate change, which fuels longer and more severe droughts. As ...

Installation tips for maximising shaft-mounted gearbox efficiency... Shaft-mounted gearboxes are widely used in industrial and compact drive applications where space is limited, from conveyors and ...

I just came back from the Toyota dealer after having my oil changed and tires rotated. They said that I needed a wheel alignment.

Using all-atom simulations of model mycomembranes, the work reports compelling structural insights into how α-mycolic acids and outer leaflet lipids (PDIM and PAT) shape membrane organisation. The ...

Conjugation is mediated by a large molecular machinery termed Type IV secretion system (T4SS), embedded within the donor cell wall. In addition, some bacteria utilise T4SS to inject effector proteins ...

Abstract: A new voltage-boosting converter, combining a charge pump and a coupling inductor, together with a passive voltage-clamping circuit which pumps part of the leakage inductance energy to the ...

Abstract: A metal grating for coupling a Gaussian beam incident from broadside to the long-range surface plasmon-polariton (LRSPP) propagating along a membrane-supported Au slab is proposed and ...

Future research could include enhancing the coupling strength, for example, by using a much higher Q-factor cavity with smaller effective volume, stronger field confinement, and smaller photon leakage ...
