Dialog / Resolving 'Faraday's paradox': New experimental evidence on the influence of the test circuit
Unipolar induction is a specific form of induction that has caused much confusion among researchers and has been heavily debated in the literature, to the point that it has been deemed by some as paradoxical. After performing ...
Dialog / Researchers leverage new machine learning methods to learn from noisy labels for image classification
The rapid development of deep learning in recent years is largely due to the rapid increase in the scale of data. The availability of large amounts of data is revolutionary for model training by the deep learning community. ...
Dialog / Atom-economy and time-economy synthesis of diclofenac sodium in a desktop micro-chemical plant
In recent years, continuous flow chemistry has evolved into a powerful platform for molecular assembly that is making an impact on organic synthetic chemistry. Unlike conventional batch method, chemical transformations are ...
Dialog / Reusable biosensors for the detection of harmful pathogens dispersed in potable water
Drinking contaminated water can lead to waterborne diseases, threatening the lives of many. Intentional contamination of a municipal water system represents a potential target for terroristic activity because of drinkable ...
Dialog / Pooling strategies can reduce the cost of COVID-19 PCR tests, even at high prevalence
Large-scale testing and contact tracing play a fundamental role in the containment of COVID-19 outbreaks. The task is nevertheless rendered difficult by the existing limitations on test analysis facilities and trained personnel. ...
Dialog / Testing a transparent superhydrophobic coating on face shields for enhanced protection against COVID-19
A face shield is personal protective equipment to prevent airborne transmission of COVID-19. These face shields are made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is hydrophilic. The respiratory droplets exhaled by an infected ...
Dialog / Optimizing flow-induced vibrations of an elastically mounted cylinder
Fluid flow across a flexible or elastically mounted structure causes vibrations due to vortex shedding and other similar instabilities, like galloping. The flow-induced vibrations (FIV) are detrimental to structures like ...
Dialog / Saturated alcohol vapor mediated colloidal deposits of an evaporating droplet on a surface
Understanding the deposition of micro- or nano-particles is central to designing innovative bioassays, biosensors, functional surfaces and ink-jet printing. An evaporating droplet containing colloidal particles results in ...
Dialog / Two-dimensional alkaline-earth hydroxides for microelectronics and carbon capture
The design of microelectronic devices with two-dimensional (2D) materials is becoming more popular. But how interesting would it be to discover and use a new generation of multifunctional 2D materials for carbon capture and ...
Dialog / Optical gravity model could transform geophysics, astrophysics and cosmology
A longstanding goal in physics has been to link general relativity with quantum theory and so unify the forces of nature. Theories of quantum gravity, however, are plagued by the weak theoretical foundations of quantum physics. ...
Dialog / Activating cancer drugs by ultrasound signals
Have you ever thought about what makes cancer so tough to treat? Why are people still terrified when they are told they have "cancer" or a "tumor"? This question does not have a single answer since many factors contribute ...
Dialog / Quantum microphone lets humans hear the advantage of quantum technologies
Online conferences have become essential to work. However, these meetings become annoying if the audio quality is noisy due to poor performance of the microphones. This is also the daily experience of hearing aid or cochlear ...
