Babafemi, Adewumi John (author), Šavija, B. (author), Chandra Paul, Suvash (author), Anggraini, Vivi (author)The abundance of waste plastic is a major issue for the sustainability of the environment as plastic pollutes rivers, land, and oceans. However, the versatile behavior of plastic (it is lightweight, flexible, strong, moisture-resistant, and cheap) can make it a replacement for or alternative to many existing composite materials like concrete....review 2018

Cuellar Lopez, J.S. (author), Smit, G. (author), Plettenburg, D.H. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)Fabrication of complex and multi-articulated mechanisms is often seen as a time consuming and demanding process. The development of functional multi-articulated mechanisms that could be fabricated in a single step without the need for post-manufacturing assembly is therefore very attractive. Additive manufacturing (AM) has been pointed out as...review 2018

Ganesan, Abiseka Akash (author), Houtepen, A.J. (author), Crisp, R.W. (author)From a niche field over 30 years ago, quantum dots (QDs) have developed into viable materials for many commercial optoelectronic devices. We discuss the advancements in Pb-based QD solar cells (QDSCs) from a viewpoint of the pathways an excited state can take when relaxing back to the ground state. Systematically understanding the fundamental...review 2018

(author), Berloff, Pavel (author), Biastoch, Arne (author), Blanke, Bruno (author), Chassignet, Eric P. (author)Lagrangian analysis is a powerful way to analyse the output of ocean circulation models and other ocean velocity data such as from altimetry. In the Lagrangian approach, large sets of virtual particles are integrated within the three-dimensional, time-evolving velocity fields. Over several decades, a variety of tools and methods for this...review 2018

Augusto Viviani Perpignan, A.A.V. (author), Gangoli Rao, A. (author), Roekaerts, D.J.E.M. (author)Since its discovery, the Flameless Combustion (FC) regime has been seen as a promising alternative combustion technique to reduce pollutant emissions of gas turbine engines. This combustion mode is often characterized by well-distributed reaction zones, which can potentially decrease temperature gradients, acoustic oscillations and,...review 2018

van Assenbergh, S.P. (author), Meinders, Erwin (author), Geraedts, Jo M.P. (author), Dodou, D. (author)When designing a new nanostructure or microstructure, one can follow a processing-based manufacturing pathway, in which the structure properties are defined based on the processing capabilities of the fabrication method at hand. Alternatively, a performance-based pathway can be followed, where the envisioned performance is first defined, and...review 2018

Krah, Alexander (author), Zarco-Zavala, Mariel (author), McMillan, D.G.G. (author)ATP synthases catalyse the formation of ATP, the most common chemical energy storage unit found in living cells. These enzymes are driven by an electrochemical ion gradient, which allows the catalytic evolution of ATP by a binding change mechanism. Most ATP synthases are capable of catalysing ATP hydrolysis to varying degrees, and to prevent...review 2018
