Wei, D. (author), Quaranta, G. (author), Aubin-Tam, M.E. (author), Tam, D.S.W. (author)Eukaryotes swim with coordinated flagellar (ciliary) beating and steer by fine-tuning the coordination. The model organism for studying flagellate motility, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, employs synchronous, breaststroke-like flagellar beating to swim, and it modulates the beating amplitudes differentially to steer. This strategy hinges on both...journal article 2024

(author), Smith, Wilson A. (author)CO<sub>2</sub> from carbonate-based capture solutions requires a substantial energy input. Replacing this step with (bi)carbonate electrolysis has been commonly proposed as an efficient alternative that coproduces CO/syngas. Here, we assess the feasibility of directly integrating air contactors with (bi)carbonate electrolyzers by leveraging...journal article 2024

Alhaddad, S.M.S. (author), Suleman, M. (author), Kirichek, Alex (author), Chassagne, C. (author)Coandă-effect-based collection stands out as the foremost technology in polymetallic-nodule mining due to the absence of direct contact between the collector and the ocean floor. Yet, this collection method disturbs the ocean floor, and minimizing such disturbance is crucial from an environmental viewpoint. To this end, a solid understanding of...journal article 2024

Spring, H. (author), Könye, Viktor (author), Gerritsma, F.A. (author), Fulga, Ion Cosma (author), Akhmerov, A.R. (author)Disorder can localize the eigenstates of one-dimensional non-Hermitian systems, leading to an Anderson transition with a critical exponent of 1. We show that, due to the lack of energy conservation, the dynamics of individual, real-space wave packets follows a different behavior. Both transitions between localization and unidirectional...journal article 2024

Nguyen, Minh Hieu (author), Nguyen-Phuoc, Duy Quy (author), Nguyen, Nguyen An Ngoc (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author)Using mobile phones while riding is a form of distracted riding that significantly elevates crash risk. Regrettably, the factors contributing to mobile phone use while riding (MPUWR) among food delivery riders remain under-researched. Addressing this literature gap, the current study employs the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model and various...journal article 2024

Chen, Zhaowei (author), Wan, Fangshuang (author), He, C. (author)To maximize the use of urban land, many cities have built buildings above metro depots. However, the low-frequency vibration caused by metro operation affects the lives of surrounding residents, which seriously restricts the further development of over-track buildings. To study this problem, Firstly, the vibration of the metro depot and...journal article 2024

Simorgh, A. (author), Soler, Manuel (author), Dietmüller, Simone (author), Matthes, Sigrun (author), Yamashita, Hiroshi (author), Castino, F. (author), Yin, F. (author)The non-CO<sub>2</sub> climate impact of aviation strongly relies on the atmospheric conditions at the time and location of emissions. Therefore, it is possible to mitigate their associated climate impact by planning trajectories to re-route airspace areas with significant climate effects. Identifying such climate-sensitive regions requires...journal article 2024

Megill, Liam (author), Deck, K.T. (author), Grewe, V. (author)A growing body of research has highlighted the major contribution of aviation non-CO2 emissions and effects to anthropogenic climate change. Regulation of these emissions, for example in the EU Emissions Trading System, requires the use of a climate metric. However, choosing a suitable climate metric is challenging due to the high uncertainties...journal article 2024
