Abstract

Natural gas is one of the primary energy sources of Bangladesh. Demand of natural gas in Bangladesh increasing day by day in various sectors. But, due to limited resources, energy crisis increasing gradually. This research work deigned to find out the natural gas crisis via forecasting gas demand and production. At the end, it also analyzed the future of CNG and LPG based vehicles in Bangladesh as an alternative of natural gas dependency.

The prediction of gas demand and production has been conducted based on the data from Petrobangla. And the future of CNG and LPG based vehicles were analyzed based on different CNG & LPG conversion company data. Demand forecasting presented three scenarios; â€œscenario A, scenario B and scenario Câ€ and production forecasting has been displayed as three cases; â€œcase A, case B, case Câ€. The Comparison of CNG and LPG has been made based on different parameters like conversion cost, calorific fuel value, fuel cost, mileage, risk of explosion of fuel cylinder, carbon emission etc.  

The outcomes of gas demand forecasting represented that gas demand is growing in every scenario. The results of production forecasting denoted as existing gas fields production is decreasing gradually. It also indicated, if new reserves would be discovered, then the production will be maximized. On the other hand, CNG conversion rate will be declined due to the shortage of natural gas. In conclusion, the investigation of different parameter of CNG & LPG confirmed, LPG is suitable for cope up with the future crisis. Hence LPG based vehicles need to take place of CNG based vehicles.

Published: November 2021

This paper reports the dispersion of nanoclay in vinylester using co-rotating twin screw extrusion and ultrasonication for preparing nanoclay/vinylester gel coat. Two sets MMT/vinylester specimens, namely Type 1 and Type 2 were prepared for comparative studies. While Type 1 specimens were prepared using ultrasonication only, Type 2 specimens were prepared using both ultrasonication and twin-screw extrusion. Type 2 specimens showed lower levels of nanoclay intercalation and higher levels of exfoliation.  By using the MMT/vinylester gel coat so prepared by the two different routes, MMT/vinylester/glass specimens were fabricated and tested for mechanical properties. Type 2 based nanocomposite specimens showed greater values of ultimate tensile strength, flexural strength, interlaminar shear strength and impact strength. Scanning Electron Micrographs (SEM) of tensile fractured Type 2 based specimens showed less agglomeration of nanoclay than that of Type 1 based specimens.
The Salmon Episodes in Tochmarc Moméra and Macgnímartha Finn: Les Mythes Se Pensent entre Eux
Authors: Kudenko Ksenia
Published: November 2021

In his seminal study Mythologiques I: Le cru et le cuit (The Raw and The Cooked), Claude Lévi-Strauss explained that there are universal laws that govern mythical thought and determine the system of myths. According to his striking statement, “les mythes se pensent entre eux” (“myths think themselves in relation to each other”). This means that certain myths constitute a system inasmuch as they represent different realisations of the same invariant myth. In this sense, the stories serve like mirrors to each other: one story can shed light on another story and vice versa, while the comparative analysis of both provides us with an underlying mythological pattern.

The present paper compares the famous episode of Finn mac Cumal getting his supernatural knowledge in the process of cooking a salmon and the less known episode from Tochmarc Moméra, ‘The Wooing of Moméra.’ In this tale, king Eógan experiences a wonderful transformation after putting on a cloak made of salmon’s skin by Eógan’s wife. However different the verbal setting of these two episodes might be, the comparison shows that they effectively communicate, share the same structure (a shift from ‘raw’ to ‘cooked’ and from ‘nature’ to ‘culture’ which fits into the initiatory scenario) and eventually, help to better understand each other.

Authors: Doan Juniarda
Published: November 2021

One of the main factors for supportingdevelopment in the agricultural sector is the irrigation infrastructure management. Infrastructure is essential because it is a basicprerequisite for development and growthandrequires very large costs. Therefore, the infrastructure must be managed properly according to Asset Management principles. This study aims to implement asset management in the management of Irrigation Area in the Salaman Technical Implementation Unit(UPT). The irrigation assets in question are the physical infrastructure of irrigation networks. This study requires an inventory of data on irrigation network which is used as input in analyzing the performance appraisal of irrigation assets. The assessment of the Irrigation Area Performance index is carried out through the weighting of each component according to the technical instructions set by the government. While the evaluation is carried out by determining priorities and types of handling irrigation areas through ranking and classification of aset condition index value. The evaluation show that 3 (three) Irrigation Areas get a condition index value of ≤60 (poor). The three irrigation areas are MA Depok, DI Pakem I, and MA Mudal. MA Depok is an irrigation area that is the first priority for treatment in the form of rehabilitation.

Published: November 2021

In this paper the authors use the comparative method to analyze differences and similarities between basic ethical principles of the Serbian Journalists’ Code of Ethics and the Code of Professional Ethics of the Serbian Public Relations Association. The authors examine whether the interests of PR and journalist professions have to conflict as is usually thought, or they can be both used as a means of informing the citizens, as Philip Patterson believes. In this paper, the theoretical perspectives of Denis Everett and John Merrill are also taken into account. They state that the media is guided by profit, while the public interest, true information and ethics are secondary.
A Glimpse at the Fate of the Byzantine Prisoners of War in Bulgaria during the Period from 976 to 1018
Authors: Hristov Yanko
Published: November 2021

There is no doubt that the highly dynamic and prolonged military clash between Byzantium and the Bulgarian Tzardom from the 70s of the tenth century until the end of the second decade of the eleventh century attracts and will continue to attract the attention of scientists. In this regard, despite the abundance of publications, when it comes to the fate of Byzantine war captives – direct participants in the battles, there seems to be something to add. Even within the limited frames of an article, it is possible to emphasize on an essential feature. It is related to the fact that, when it comes to the Byzantine prisoners of war (regular warriors as well as commanders of all ranks), Tzar Samuel and his successors followed the experience gained in the previous centuries in Early Medieval Bulgaria.
Functions of Copywriting and Brand Journalism in Integrated Marketing Communications
Authors: Karapenchev Yordan
Published: November 2021

This paper aims to examine the terms “brand journalism” and “copywriting” and establish their similarities and differences. To achieve this, several pre-existing definitions of the two terms were compiled and examined. The study establishes that there is an overlap between the two and researchers have occasionally used them synonymously. However, this paper proposes a clear way to differentiate between the two. Brand journalism has been identified as a part of integrated marketing communications (IMC), whereas copywriting is a specific technique for creating texts related to IMC. While all brand journalism can be classified as copywriting, not all copywriting texts are brand journalism. The term ‘copywriting’ should also apply to texts created for PR, advertising and other forms of marketing communications.

Published: November 2021

Many countries shut their borders, imposed nationwide lockdown, and restricted several anthropogenic activities to arrest the spread of COVID-19. In the present study, the concentration of several air pollutants(PM10, PM2.5, NO2, NH3, SO2, CO and O3) during different phases of lockdown from monitoring stations of Patna was analyzed to assess the effect of lockdown restriction on air quality. Reduction in PM2.5, NH3, NO2, PM10 and CO concentration was observed by 59.79%, 58.2%, 49.49%, 39.57% and 24.04%, respectively during the lockdown period. National Air Quality Index(NAQI) value in the year 2020 had been observed to lower by 57.88% compared to the year 2019, during the same period. A more significant fall in the concentration of air pollutants was observed during the early phase of post-lockdown compared to the late stages of post-lockdown. The study reflects the significance of restriction on anthropogenic activities in improving air quality and provides clues for future action plans for improving air quality.
Patient with pain and depression – practical therapeutic implications
Authors: Wojtasik-Bakalarz Krzysztof , Woroń Jarosław , Siwek Marcin , Krupa Anna
Published: November 2021

Depression and pain are often coexisting phenomena, and the relationship between both phenomena is two-way – the occurrence of depression increases the risk of pain, and both acute and chronic pain increase the risk of depression. Pain may be part of the clinical picture of depression, be a result of comorbid psychiatric disorders, be associated with comorbidities, be a chronic pain syndrome, or be a complication of pharmacotherapy. The comorbidity of pain and depression is associated with a worse prognosis, lower therapeutic response, lower quality of life, impaired functioning, and a greater risk of relapse and suicide. There are indications that the same structures and neurotransmitters are involved in the pathophysiology of pain and depression, which may explain the coanalgesic effect of some antidepressants. The drugs with the best proven effectiveness are serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors (especially duloxetine) and amitriptyline. Other drugs that may be of use in the treatment of pain are mirtazapine, mianserin, trazodone, agolemelatine, bupropion, and moclobemide. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are used primarily in the treatment of depression symptomatic pain, but there is little evidence that they are effective in other types of pain. The use of certain psychotropic drugs, incl. SSRIs, clomipramine, benzodiazepines, Z drugs, and anticholinergics may be associated with increased pain. Caution is required when using polypharmacy in the form of a combination of an antidepressant and an analgesic because of the risk of worsening side effects or loss of treatment effectiveness. In the case of opioid drugs, in particular tramadol, the combination with drugs with a serotonergic effect may be associated with the risk of serotonin syndrome.

Wie viel Geld ist angemessen? eine Vignettenstudie zur akzeptanz von Sanktionen im SGB II
Authors: Linden Philipp
Published: November 2021

Seit den Reformen des SGB II 2004 /05 gelten Sanktionen in der Grundsicherung als zentrale Säule im aktivierenden Sozialstaat. Sozialpolitisch wird dabei häufig diskutiert, ob Sanktionen generell zulässig sind bzw. dazu führen dürfen, dass Betroffene (temporär) unterhalb des soziokulturellen Existenzminimums leben. Zudem stufte das Bundesverfassungsgericht 2019 Kürzungen über 30 % der Grundsicherungsleistung als verfassungswidrig ein und mahnte einen Reformprozess an. Eine breite öffentliche Akzeptanz der veränderten Sanktionspraxis könnte erreicht werden, wenn empirische Evidenz zur Wahrnehmung solcher Sanktionen den Reformprozess begleitet. Der Beitrag untersucht mittels einer Vignettenanalyse, welche Sanktionen in der Bevölkerung akzeptiert werden, wenn hypothetische Sozialleistungsbeziehende ihre Mitwirkungspflicht verletzen. Eine Mehrheit der repräsentativen deutschen Stichprobe (N = 2621) befürwortet eine als Sanktion verhängte Leistungskürzung bis 30 % der Grundsicherungsleistung. Eine geringe Motivation zur Arbeitssuche, Terminversäumnisse mit den Fachberater*innen und ein ausländischer Name erhöhen für sich genommen, aber vor allem in Kombination miteinander, die Akzeptanz von Sanktionen signifikant. Das Alter der hypothetischen Sozialleistungsbezieher*innen spielt dagegen nur eine marginale Rolle.

Dass vom zivilgesellschaftlichen Engagement nicht nur die Gesellschaft und die Organisati- onen des Engagements profitieren, sondern ebenso diejenigen die sich engagieren, zeigt sich insbesondere darin, dass im Rahmen der Tätigkeiten vielfältige Erfahrungen gesammelt und Kompetenzen (weiter) entwickelt werden können. Um entsprechende (Bildungs-)Wirkun- gen umfassender zu forcieren, werden im zivilgesellschaftlichen Engagement gegenwärtig zunehmend Bildungskonzepte implementiert. Allerdings wirken auch immer strukturelle, kontextbezogene und individuelle Einflüsse auf den Lernprozess ein. Dies greift der Beitrag auf und veranschaulicht anhand der Organisation Foodsharing, die sich aktiv gegen Lebens- mittelverschwendung einsetzt und einen Bildungsauftrag verfolgt, ohne jedoch über ein Bil- dungskonzept im genuinen Sinne zu verfügen, dass strukturelle Rahmungen im Sinne eines impliziten Bildungskonzepts gedeutet werden können, da auch sie dazu beitragen, dass sich (Bildungs-)Wirkungen entfalten.

Published: November 2021

Background: Morquio A, an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease, is caused by a defect in the enzyme N-acetyl-galactosamine-6-sulfatase. This leads to the accumulation of the glycosaminoglycans chondroitin-6-sulfate (C6S) and keratan sulfate (KS), resulting in various skeletal manifestations, multisystemic impairments, and significant morbidities. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the addition of elosulfase alfa to the hospital protocol on treating Iranian pediatricians with Morquio A syndrome. Methods: A before and after study was conducted on ten patients with Morquio A syndrome diagnosis from 2019 to 2020. Elosulfase alfa was prescribed with the standard dose of 2 mg/kg/weekly IV infusion for 54 weeks. Then, growth indices, quality of life, and cardiopulmonary data were collected by research assistants using a pre-designed check. Data were entered in SPSS version 23. Quantitative variables were compared between the two periods using the Student's t-test, and qualitative variables were compared using the χ2 test or Fisher's exact test. Results: Ten pediatricians with MPS IV were included, seven of whom were female, with the mean age of 5.8 ± 2.3 years. The meantime for walking 6 m (P = 0.005), standing (P = 0.005), the stair climb test (P = 0.007), and quality of life (P = 0.015) had significant statistical difference before and after treatment by elosulfase alfa. Conclusions: The addition of elosulfase alfa in patients with Morquio A syndrome was associated with a significant improvement outcome in the ‘after’ treatment period.

The demand for organic food is rising since consumers want food from reliable, highest quality sources originating from the environment, undisturbed by cultivation and processing. It is necessary to determine to what extent there is a scientific basis for the claims that organic food is of high quality. In this study, beetroot from an organic production system originating from 6 certified organic food producers from different geographic locations was examined. The organic beetroot samples were processed by pasteurization at 700 C and 900 C into beet juice or by drying at 550 C. The following samples were tested and compared: fresh beetroot, pasteurized beet juice and dried beetroot slices. The concentration of vitamin C, level of total phenol compounds (TPC) and antioxidative activity (TAA) in beetroot were influenced by the geographic origin and the applied processing method. The highest degradation for all analysed parameters was found in the samples treated by drying or pasteurisation at 90ºC. The lowest losses of studied phytochemical components were observed during juice pasteurisation at 700C. The correlation coefficient between TPC and TAA was high and significant (r2 = 0.966).
Estado de alarma, pandemia y derechos fundamentales ¿limitación o suspensión?
Authors: Carmona Cuenca Encarnación
Published: November 2021

En España, la Constitución prevé la posibilidad de limitar o suspender algunos derechos fundamentales reconocidos en la Constitución en determinadas situaciones de emergencia. Este Derecho de excepción prevé la declaración de tres situaciones distintas: Estado de alarma, estado de excepción y estado de sitio. Según la tesis tradicional, basada en el artículo 55 de la Constitución española, en el estado de excepción y en el estado de sitio es posible la suspensión de derechos fundamentales, mientras que en el estado de alarma sólo es posible la limitación de los mismos. La diferencia estaría en que la suspensión implica la afectación del contenido esencial de estos derechos. A partir de la experiencia de los tres estados de alarma declarados en España en 2020 para hacer frente a la pandemia por la Covid-19 y de la jurisprudencia del Tribunal Constitucional, especialmente de la STC 148/2021, de 14 de julio, en este trabajo se realiza una interpretación crítica de esta tesis tradicional y se argumenta sobre la dificultad de distinguir limitación y suspensión de derechos. La principal tesis que se mantiene en este trabajo es que en ningún caso se produce realmente una suspensión de derechos fundamentales, pues éstos no desaparecen, ni siquiera temporalmente. Tan sólo se produce una reducción o redefinición de su contenido esencial. Pero, en todo caso, perviven las garantías de los derechos fundamentales establecidas en la Constitución y en la LO 4/1981, de 1 de junio, de los estados de alarma, excepción y sitio. La diferencia entre el estado de alarma y los estados de excepción y sitio hay que ubicarla más bien en los presupuestos fácticos que legitiman la declaración de cada uno de ellos, en el procedimiento previsto para esta declaración y en los concretos derechos que pueden quedar limitados directamente en cada caso, así como en las concretas medidas en que puede consistir esta limitación. Estas medidas están claramente definidas en la LO 4/1981.
El Derecho a la propia imagen en su dimensión subjetiva y los códigos de indumentaria laboral
Authors: González Hernández Esther
Published: November 2021

En el presente paper se analiza el derecho a la propia imagen del art. 18.1 CE/78 desde una dimensión poco difundida. Se trataba de su dimensión como «derecho a la configuración de la propia apariencia», que todavía no ha sido asumida por el Tribunal Constitucional español que sigue resolviendo los conflictos laborales sobre los «códigos de indumentaria» desde la oposición del poder de dirección «razonable» de los empresarios con el art. 14 CE que prohíbe todo tipo de discriminación, sin, apenas, aludir a la problemática intrínseca del derecho a la propia imagen que, a buen seguro, dará mucho que hablar en los próximos años.

The development of energy policies aimed at reducing energy consumption and the environmental impact together with the importance of the agricultural sector and its associated industries in certain regions, such as Extremadura, where most of the agricultural production is carried out by traditional cultivation systems, makes that the use of land that is not naturally suitable for crops and get a productivity improvement thanks climate control through renewable energies in greenhouses it and interested proposal. So, the purpose of this work is assist small farmers in obtaining the fruits demanded by the market, through the use of renewable energies and the use of soils that are not very favourable for cultivation, contributing to achieve an economically profitable and environmentally sustainable agriculture.
The intervening factors are the outdoor climate throughout the year, the interior requirements for the crop-sequence and the covering greenhouse with auxiliary energy supply, it's possible estimate the energy demand throughout the year and the contribution of each source to this demand, contrasted with a practical case study in Extremadura. The estimated result for this case it is an energy demand of 9 GJ/m2 with 62 % covered by solar radiation, 33 % by natural ventilation systems, 3 % with refrigeration and 2 % covered by heating. An economic analysis of the operation is included, taking into account the main intervening factors.
In conclusion, thanks to greenhouse cultivation, by means of current fertigation systems that allow the use of the most suitable solution to be added to the irrigation water it is possible to cultivate in unsuitable soils, controlling the humidity and components present in them, as well as the tension generated by the roots of the plants. The energy demand is satisfied by solar radiation and ventilation mostly, which are renewable sources of energy, by making the contribution of heating by local biomass is covered almost entirely by renewable energy sources.

Published: November 2021

This study examines the differences in mental health experiences of workers in professional and non-professional roles, with a particular focus on the influence of gender. We examine: i) the perceived mental health of a subset of professional workers including accounting, academia, dentistry, medicine, nursing, and teaching, chosen because they represent different gender composition and sectors; and ii) work stress and work absences. Statistical analyses were applied to data from the Canadian Community Health Survey and a related Mental Health and Well-Being survey. Those in the selected professions reported better mental health, higher job satisfaction, and a lower prevalence of mental disorders, but higher self-perceived life and work stress compared to workers in non-professional roles. Workers in these professions reported higher job security and higher job control, but also higher psychological demands. Women in these professions showed significantly higher physical exertion and lower job authority and higher rates of work absences.
Determination of Corneal Endothelial Cell Count and Morphology in Patients with Pseudoexfoliation: A Cross-control Study
Authors: Nagle Purva Shailesh , Kulkarni Varsha Nitin
Published: November 2021

Introduction: Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome (PEX) is characterised by the formation or deposition of abnormal fibrillar material on intraocular structures. Various ocular complications, such as chronic open-angle glaucoma, zonular dehiscence causing lens subluxation/dislocation, poor mydriasis are associated with PEX. In PEX eyes, corneal endothelial changes have been demonstrated along with thinner Central Corneal Thickness (CCT). Aim: To evaluate the CCT, corneal Endothelial Cell Density (ECD) and morphology in patients with pseudoexfoliation and to compare the results with age matched controls. Materials and Methods: A case-control study was done on a total of 147 eyes of 81 patients with pseudoexfoliation with equal number of eyes in age matched controls were evaluated for corneal ECD, coefficient of variation in cell size, percentage of hexagonal cells and CCT using a non-contact specular microsope. The quantitative data was represented as their mean±Standard Deviation (SD). The paired t-test was used for analysing quantitative data. Results: The average ECD in the PEX group was 2301.30±117.37 cells/mm2. It was significantly lower than the average ECD in controls 2632.91±24.04 cells/mm2 (p-value <0.001). The average CCT in the PEX group was 508±19.09 microns and in the age matched controls was 524.22±6.36 microns. The average CCT was low in the PEX group and difference was statistically significant (p≤0.001). The coefficient of variation and percentage of hexagonality were altered but did not show any statistical significance in both the groups. Conclusion: ECD and CCT is significantly decreased in eyes with PEX. Pleomorphism and polymegathism was not found significant in this study.

Published: November 2021

Introduction: The prognosis of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) at an early stage with explicit biomarkers is critical to distinguish patients with possibility of poor recovery. Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) serves as an impending source for biomarkers that portrays the exact biochemical changes. Aim: To find out if there is any prognostic value of high CSF phosphorylated Neurofilament Heavy subunit (pNf-H) levels, measured during first two weeks of onset of GBS, as assessed by the level of disability at six months after the onset of GBS. Materials and Methods: The cohort study was conducted in the Department of Neurology and Department of Immunology and Molecular Medicine, at the Sher-I-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Soura, Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, India, over a period of two years from August 2015 to August 2017. Sixty two patients who satisfied the required diagnostic standards for GBS (study group) and 35 patients with tension-type headache (control group) were selected for the study. After clinical and electrophysiological assessment, CSF samples were collected. A commercially available sandwich enzyme immunoassay kit, manufactured by BioVendor-Laboratorní medicína (Czech Republic), was used for measuring human pNf-H quantitatively. Results: Mean CSF pNf-H level in patients with good outcome was 325.3 pg/mL whereas, in patients with poor outcome it was 3655.2 pg/mL. CSF pNf-H levels were found to be suggestively higher in GBS patients with poor outcome as compared to those with good outcome. Only eight patients in good outcome group had pathologically high CSF Nf-H levels whereas 10 patients in poor outcome group had CSF Nf-H levels ≤730 pg/mL. The odds ratio was 17.1 (95% Confidence Interval (CI) 3.83-76.29). Thus, high CSF Nf-H levels on admission predicted poor outcome in GBS (p-value <0.001). Moderate degree of positive correlation was found between CSF Nf-H levels and outcome (F score) at six months (R=0.684; p-value <0.001). Conclusion: It can be determined that higher values of CSF pNf-H in GBS (acute stage), could serve as a predictive marker indicative of poor prognosis.

Increasing the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of narrow bandgap acceptors is of critical importance to suppress the nonradiative voltage loss (ΔVnr) in organic solar cells (OSCs). Herein, two acceptors, SM16 and SM16‐R, with an identical backbone but different terminal groups (norbornenyl modified 1,1‐dicyanomethylene‐3‐indanone and dimethyl substituted 1,1‐dicyanomethylene‐3‐indanone) are designed and synthesized. Compared with SM16‐R, SM16 displays better solubility, higher PLQY, and more favorable nanomorphology when blended with polymer donor PBDB‐T. PBDB‐T:SM16‐based OSCs yield a ΔVnr as low as 0.145 V. Using SM16 as the third component, a high power conversion efficiency of 17.1% is achieved in the ternary OSCs based on PBDB‐T:Y14:SM16, considerably higher than that of the binary devices based on PBDB‐T:Y14 or PBDB‐T:SM16. These results highlight that enhancing the PLQY of low bandgap acceptor via terminal group engineering strategy is highly effective to reduce ΔVnr of OSCs.

Nanostructured functional oxides play an important role in enabling clean energy technologies and novel memory and processor devices. Using thin‐film La0.6Sr0.4FeO3 (LSF) as a model system, the novel utility of exsolution in fabricating self‐assembled metal oxide nanocomposites with tunable functionalities is shown. Exsolution triggers the formation of metallic iron (Fe0) nanoparticles, Ruddlesden–Popper domains, and nm‐scale percolated Fe‐deficient channels in LSF. Combining multimodal characterization with numerical modeling, the chemical, magnetic, and electrical properties of the exsolution‐synthesized nanocomposite at different stages of Fe0 exsolution as well as during redox cycling are assessed. After exsolution, the electronic conductivity of the nanocomposite LSF increased by more than two orders of magnitude. Based on numerical analysis representing all the constituents, it is expected that this increase in conductivity originates mainly from the Fe‐deficient percolating channels formed during exsolution. Moreover, the exsolved nanocomposite is redox‐active even at moderate temperatures. Such redox capabilities can enable dynamic control of the nanocomposite functionality by tailoring the oxygen non‐stoichiometry. This concept is demonstrated with a continuous modulation of magnetization between 0 and 110 emu cm−3. These findings point out that exsolution may serve as a platform for scalable fabrication of complex metal oxide nanocomposites for electrochemical and electronic applications.

Although metasurface‐based devices exhibit great potential in optical display and storage technology, the challenges in practical nanoantenna fabrication limit their wide application. In parallel, flat optics, including planar thin‐film nanocavities, have also been extensively studied to realize various spectral engineering and imaging functionalities with large areas and simpler architecture. However, a longstanding practical challenge is to achieve multiplexing imaging functionalities with dynamic switchable ability in real‐time, which to date remains unexplored. In this study, by utilizing the typical inflation sensitivity of hydrogels to humidity change, a multiplexing imaging tunable strategy based on stepwise metal–hydrogel–metal (MHM) nanocavities is originally explored and demonstrated to exhibit dynamic switchable red–green–blue multichannel nanoprinting in real‐time. By decoupling the amplitude/phase correlation, MHM nanocavities successfully enable the hybrid encryption of simultaneous meta‐holography with independent‐encoding freedom in addition to multiplexing nanoprinting. Such an imaging approach, which employs a dynamic tuning scheme, paves a promising avenue toward various applications including state‐of‐the‐art tunable imaging display/storage/encryption, humidity optical sensors, and next‐generation dynamic augmented reality technology.

Flexible transparent electrodes are widely used in flexible displays, optoelectronic devices, flexible heating/electromagnetic shielding devices, and flexible sensors. However, significant challenges remain to obtain stable service under harsh environments, owing to the limitations of flexible transparent substrates and conductive materials. Herein, a simple and cost‐effective fabrication approach for harsh‐environment flexible transparent electrodes (HFTEs) is demonstrated via the electric field‐driven microscale 3D printing of a silver mesh on a colorless polyimide (CPI) substrate. Vertical jet orientation on the CPI substrate is realized by controlling the printing parameters, which effectively reduce the instability of the cone jet and is conducive to the preparation of the high‐precision silver mesh on the CPI substrate. The HFTE exhibits good optoelectronic properties (resistance of 4.82 Ω sq−1 and transmittance of 92.26%), and excellent extreme environmental stability with a negligible increase in sheet resistance under various cyclic tests (200 000 bending cycles, 100 adhesion tests, high temperature heating capacity of 360 °C, 80 h of chemical attack, and 120 days of atmospheric environment attack). Baking of quail eggs and deicing experiments are also conducted, which successfully demonstrate the practical viability of the HFTE. Thus, the proposed technique offers a simple and efficient solution for the manufacturing of HFTEs.

Published: November 2021

Manipulating transient mass transfer plays a crucial role in physics, chemistry, biology, and other fields. One typical example is chemical waves, whose concentration profiles have spatiotemporal variations. Based on a general model associated with the advection‐diffusion equation, an optimized transformation‐mass‐transfer theory is proposed to flexibly control transient mass transfer. As an example application, a class of separators is theoretically designed to achieve the separation of chemical waves. Meanwhile, three typical types of devices for cloaking, concentrating, and rotating chemical waves are proposed successfully, thus offering more versatile control methods. Such theoretical analysis is well confirmed by the computer simulations. These results provide insights into novel manipulation of chemical waves associated with biochemical reactions and promote potential applications for transient mass diffusion.
Density Functional Theory for Polymer Phase Separations Induced by Coupling of Chemical Reaction and Elastic Stress

Published: November 2021

A density functional theory is applied to phase separation dynamics influenced by crosslinking reactions in dense polymer solutions. The crosslinking reaction is modeled by a change from non‐crosslinked polymers comprising transient network (TN) to crosslinked polymers participating in the percolated permanent network (PN). Deformed TN polymers are considered to relax to the isotropic equilibrium state according to the Maxwellian linear viscoelastic constitutive equation, which is used in the modeling of viscoelastic phase separations. The PN is modeled by a linear elastic constitutive model. When TN polymers are taken into the PN by crosslinking reaction, the instantaneous deformation of the TN polymers are frozen, and such frozen deformations are accumulated as time goes on. A series of simulations is performed using this model, so that two specific features of the viscoelastic and reactive phase separation are obtained, i.e., 1) two‐stage phase separation process that leads to a domain structure with two different characteristic length scales, and 2) fixing the phase‐separated structure before reaching the macrophase separation.

Cancer is one of the top life‐threatening dangers to the human survival, accounting for over 10 million deaths per year. Bioactive glasses have developed dramatically since their discovery 50 years ago, with applications that include therapeutics as well as diagnostics. A new system within the bioactive glass family, mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs), has evolved into a multifunctional platform, thanks to MBGs easy‐to‐functionalize nature and tailorable textural properties—surface area, pore size, and pore volume. Although MBGs have yet to meet their potential in tumor treatment and imaging in practice, recently research has shed light on the distinguished MBGs capabilities as promising theranostic systems for cancer imaging and therapy. This review presents research progress in the field of MBG applications in cancer diagnosis and therapy, including synthesis of MBGs, mechanistic overview of MBGs application in tumor diagnosis and drug monitoring, applications of MBGs in cancer therapy ( particularly, targeted delivery and stimuli‐responsive nanoplatforms), and immunological profile of MBG‐based nanodevices in reference to the development of novel cancer therapeutics.

Gait and waist motions always contain massive personnel information and it is feasible to extract these data via wearable electronics for identification and healthcare based on the Internet of Things (IoT). There also remains a demand to develop a cost‐effective human‐machine interface to enhance the immersion during the long‐term rehabilitation. Meanwhile, triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) revealing its merits in both wearable electronics and IoT tends to be a possible solution. Herein, the authors present wearable TENG‐based devices for gait analysis and waist motion capture to enhance the intelligence and performance of the lower‐limb and waist rehabilitation. Four triboelectric sensors are equidistantly sewed onto a fabric belt to recognize the waist motion, enabling the real‐time robotic manipulation and virtual game for immersion‐enhanced waist training. The insole equipped with two TENG sensors is designed for walking status detection and a 98.4% identification accuracy for five different humans aiming at rehabilitation plan selection is achieved by leveraging machine learning technology to further analyze the signals. Through a lower‐limb rehabilitation robot, the authors demonstrate that the sensory system performs well in user recognition, motion monitoring, as well as robot and gaming‐aided training, showing its potential in IoT‐based smart healthcare applications.

Published: November 2021

While alloying is a powerful handle for materials engineering, it is an ongoing challenge to navigate the large and complex parameter space of these materials. This applies in particular for thermoelectrics and even more so clathrates. Here, a combination of density functional theory calculations, alloy cluster expansions, Monte Carlo simulations, and Boltzmann transport theory calculations is used to identify compositions that yield high power factors in the pseudo‐ternary clathrates Ba8AlxGayGe46−x−yand Ba8GaxGeySi46−x−y, while accounting for weight and raw material costs. The results show how a cost‐efficient performance can be achieved by reducing the number of Al and Ga atoms per unit cell, while compensating the resulting increase in the carrier concentration via an extrinsic dopant. The approach used in this study is transferable and can be a useful tool for mapping the thermodynamic and transport properties of other multinary systems.
