Seol, Hyeonji (author), Arztmann, Daniel (author), Kim, Naree (author), Balderrama, A. (author)Natural ventilation in a building is an effective way to achieve acceptable indoor air quality. Ventilation dilutes contaminants such as bioeffluents generated by occupants, substances emitted from building materials, and the water vapor generated by occupants’ activities. In a building that requires heating and cooling, adequate ventilation is...journal article 2023

Kim, J. (author), Jonoski, Andreja (author), Solomatine, D.P. (author), Goethals, Peter L. M. (author)Flow control flushing water from reservoirs has been imposed in South Korea for mitigating harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) in rivers. This measure, however, can cause water shortage in reservoirs, as the measure adopting this flow control may require an additional amount of water which exceeds the water demand allocated to the...journal article 2023

(author), Arcos-Hernandez, Monica (author), Dijkstra, Jelmer (author), de Vries, Erik (author)Past studies have repeatedly demonstrated the technical feasibility to produce polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) using bacterial biomass of mixed microbial cultures (MMCs). Commercial quality grades of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate), PHBV, can be produced with control of average monomer composition. However, demonstration of PHBV...journal article 2023

Kabbani, T. (author), Kim, S. (author), Serbes, D. (author), Ozan, Berzah (author), van Egmond, R. (author), Hartavi, Ahu Ace (author)Automation of vehicles not only provides greater safety, but also many previously unimagined opportunities, such as less inequality, less stress, and more meaningful activities while driving. However, the uptake and implementation of automated driving have been falling short of its promise, due to challenges in identifying safe and acceptable...journal article 2023

Barth, R. (author), Pradhan, B. (author), Kim, E. (author), Davidson, Iain F. (author), van der Torre, J. (author), Peters, Jan Michael (author), Dekker, C. (author)DNA loop extrusion by structural-maintenance-of-chromosome (SMC) complexes has emerged as a primary organizing principle for chromosomes. The mechanism by which SMC motor proteins extrude DNA loops is still unresolved and much debated. The ring-like structure of SMC complexes prompted multiple models where the extruded DNA is topologically or...journal article 2023

(author), Lee, Sang Wook (author)The inherent properties of 2D materials—light mass, high out-of-plane flexibility, and large surface area—promise great potential for precise and accurate nanomechanical mass sensing, but their application is often hampered by surface contamination. Here we demonstrate a tri-layer graphene nanomechanical resonant mass sensor with sub-attogram...journal article 2023

Kim, J. (author), Jonoski, Andreja (author), Solomatine, D.P. (author), Goethals, Peter L. M. (author)The World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) provide guidelines on the maximum levels of nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) contained in drinking water since excess nitrate ingestion may harm human health. Thus, monitoring and controlling the NO3-N concentration is of paramount importance, especially in sources of...journal article 2023

(author)Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are a major source of N<sub>2</sub>O, a potent greenhouse gas with 300 times higher global warming potential than CO<sub>2</sub>. Several approaches have been proposed for mitigation of N<sub>2</sub>O emissions from WWTPs and have shown promising yet only site-specific results. Here, self-sustaining...journal article 2023

El Jouhri, A. (author), El Sharkawy, A. (author), Paksoy, H. (author), Youssif, O.K.S.A. (author), He, X. (author), Kim, S. (author), Happee, R. (author)Introduction: SAE Level 3 is known as conditional driving automation. As long as certain conditions are met, there is no need to supervise the technology and the driver can engage in non-driving related tasks (NDRTs). However, a human driver must be present and alert to take over when the automation is facing its system limits. When such an...journal article 2023

(author)Molecular catch bonds are ubiquitous in biology and essential for processes like leucocyte extravasion<sup>1</sup> and cellular mechanosensing<sup>2</sup>. Unlike normal (slip) bonds, catch bonds strengthen under tension. The current paradigm is that this feature provides ‘strength on demand<sup>3</sup>’, thus enabling cells to increase...journal article 2022
