The mechanisms building the overall concentration distribution in a scalar mixture, and the drops in a spray, are examined successively. In both cases, the distributions belong to a unique family of distributions stable by self-convolution, the signature of the aggregation process from which they originate.

Wood has a number of undesirable inherent properties that limit its ability to be used in a wider range of applications. For this reason, in this study, copper-montmorillonite nanoparticles were prepared from natural biomass tung oil and the natural mineral montmorillonite by the ion exchange method. Modified wood with tung oil intercalated with copper-montmorillonite was prepared by a simple and environmentally friendly impregnation and natural curing process.

Pressure is mounting to minimize the carbon footprint of chemical industry while increasing its sustainability. An argument is made that working from Green Chemistry principles during discovery-based catalysis results in effective chemistry and circumvents a need to "rediscover" chemical reactivity under sustainable conditions. Examples of comparative success in selected examples of hydrophosphination catalysis in various degrees of development are provided to support two main ideas: 1) Starting from more sustainable practices in chemical discovery is inertia in methodology that should be overcome, and 2) substantial challenges remain in catalysis for which sustainable solutions would positively impact other areas of chemistry.

The automatic detection of arrhythmia is of primary importance due to the huge number of victims caused worldwide by cardiovascular diseases. To this aim, several deep learning approaches have been recently proposed to automatically classify heartbeats in a small number of classes. Most of these approaches use convolutional neural networks (CNNs), exploiting some bi-dimensional representation of the ECG signal, such as spectrograms, scalograms, or similar.

How do people model the world's dynamics to guide mental simulation and evaluate choices? One prominent approach, the Successor Representation (SR), takes advantage of temporal abstraction of future states: by aggregating trajectory predictions over multiple timesteps, the brain can avoid the costs of iterative, multi-step mental simulation. Human behavior broadly shows signatures of such temporal abstraction, but finer-grained characterization of individuals' strategies and their dynamic adjustment remains an open question. We developed a task to measure SR usage during dynamic, trial-by-trial learning.

Multifunctional coatings have great application value in the protection of Marine equipment, ships and ship facilities, but they still suffer from the disadvantages of high preparation cost and complicated synthesis methods. Herein, employing a simple method to synthesize black carbon nitride (BCN), as the filler in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to construct BCN/PDMS composite coating with a multifunctional anti-corrosion/antifouling coating capable of photothermal self-healing property. Experimental results exhibit that the BCN/PDMS coating can still possesses excellent corrosion resistance after 28 d of immersion in the simulated seawater, and the impedance modulus still manages to reach 6.
