Density effects on solute release from the streambed

David Andrew Barry

Contaminants can be released to the stream from the bed by previous pollution events. The releasing contaminants may cause secondary pollution for a river, which impacts the river’s eco-environmental condition. By means of laboratory experiments and numeri ...

Stability profiles of transition metal oxides in the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline medium

Xile Hu, Aliki Moysiadou

The electrochemical water splitting reaction can convert renewable electricity into clean hydrogen fuel. The efficiency of water splitting is limited to a large extent by the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Numerous transition metal oxides have b ...

Hydrophobic hydration of poly-N-isopropyl acrylamide: a matter of the mean energetic state of water

Paolo De Los Rios

The enthalpically favoured hydration of hydrophobic entities, termed hydrophobic hydration, impacts the phase behaviour of numerous amphiphiles in water. Here, we show experimental evidence that hydrophobic hydration is strongly determined by the mean ener ...

Robust image reconstruction from multi-view measurements

Pierre Vandergheynst, Gilles Puy

We propose a novel method to accurately reconstruct a set of images representing a single scene from few linear multi-view measurements. Each observed image is modeled as the sum of a background image and a foreground one. The background image is common to ...

The kinetic parameters and energy cost of the Hsp70 chaperone as a polypeptide unfoldase

Paolo De Los Rios

Hsp70-Hsp40-NEF and possibly Hsp100 are the only known molecular chaperones that can use the energy of ATP to convert stably pre-aggregated polypeptides into natively refolded proteins. However, the kinetic parameters and ATP costs have remained elusive be ...
