Inactivation of influenza A virus in expiratory droplets and aerosol particles and the associated physicochemical drivers

Aline Laetitia Schaub

Influenza is an infectious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. Every year, it causes up to one billion cases of disease worldwide. Despite its high disease burden, the transmission pathway of influenza remains subject to debate. There is incre ...

Water Activity from Equilibrium Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Kirkwood-Buff Theory

Satoshi Takahama, Mária Lbadaoui-Darvas

Water activity and related thermodynamic properties are calculated for several aqueous solutions using equilibrium molecular dynamics in conjunction with the recent extension of the Kirkwood-Buff (KB) theory for closed systems. The general applicability of ...

Wind turbine wakes over hills

Fernando Porté Agel, Sina Shamsoddin

Understanding and predicting the behaviour of wind turbine wake flows over hills is important for optimal design of wind-farm configurations on topography. In this study, we present an analytical modelling framework together with large-eddy simulation (LES ...

Decomposing the Bulk Electrical Conductivity of Streamflow To Recover Individual Solute Concentrations at High Frequency

Paolo Benettin

The ability to evaluate stream hydrochemistry is often constrained by the capacity to sample streamwater at an adequate frequency. While technology is no longer a limiting factor, costs and sample management can still be a barrier to high-resolution water ...

Microalloying for the controllable delay of precipitate formation in metal alloys

William Curtin

A model is presented to predict the effectiveness of dilute solutes in delaying precipitate formation, with application to natural and artificial aging in metal alloys. Control of aging is achieved via the binding, at natural aging temperatures, and releas ...

Highly Stable Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Based on Novel 1,2,3-Triazolium Ionic Liquids

Michael Graetzel, Paul Joseph Dyson, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Hoi Nok Tsao, Pui Shan Genevieve Lau

We describe the design and synthesis of novel low viscosity bicyclic 1,2,3-triazolium ionic liquids. These new salts are applied as nonvolatile electrolytes in dye-sensitized solar cells, affording efficiencies up to 7.07% at low light intensities, and 6.0 ...

Biogeochemical controls on the product of microbial U(VI) reduction

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Daniel Scott Alessi, Malgorzata Alicja Stylo, Paul Pao-Yun Shao

Biologically mediated immobilization of radio-nuclides in the subsurface is a promising strategy for the remediation of uranium-contaminated sites. During this process, soluble U(VI) is reduced by indigenous microorganisms to sparingly soluble U(TV). The c ...

Statistical mechanics of wind wave-induced erosion in shallow tidal basins: Inferences from the Venice Lagoon

Andrea Rinaldo

Wind wave-induced erosional effects are among the chief landscape-forming processes in tidal biomorphodynamics. Wave-driven bottom erosion, in fact, controls the equilibrium elevation and dynamics of subtidal and tidal flat surfaces, and the impact of wave ...
