We formulated two phase-field models to compute interfacial compositions, characterized by their high computational accuracy and efficiency. The inaugural model utilizes convergence calculations to fulfill the equal diffusion potential condition, while the subsequent model obviates the need for such calculations. Despite this, its computational outcomes strongly agree with those of the preceding model. Notably, in these models, the alteration in composition attributable to interfacial curvatures aligns with the Gibbs-Thomson effect within the equilibrium system. In this study, the solidification processes of Ni-Al-Cr and Ag-Cu-Sn alloys serve as case studies to underscore the computational precision and swiftness of the proposed models.

Several studies were focused on the application of MIL-100(Fe) (FeO(OH)(HO)(BTC), HBTC is 1,3,5-benzene tricarboxylic acid) in the photo-Fenton reaction, but it still suffers from low efficiency. In this work, MIL-100(Fe) was synthesized at ambient conditions and low pHs using Fe(II) precursors in homogeneous aqueous media to develop a sample with high activity in the photo-Fenton reaction, even better than Fe-porphyrin metal-organic frameworks. The as-synthesized sample is highly crystalline with 30.

Bicontinuous structures are exquisite interpenetrating constructs with an optimal balance between connectivity and surface area. Such unique geometry favors exceptional mechanical properties and efficient inward mass diffusion essential for an absorbent material. Although bicontinuous structures are found across many length scales in nature, synthesizing artificial analogs using biological building blocks remains largely unexplored.

Background: Conduction velocity (CV) is a measure of the health of myocardial tissue. It can be measured by taking differences in local activation times from intracardiac electrodes. Several factors introduce error into the measurement, among which ignoring the 3-dimensional aspect is a major detriment.

Widespread screening is crucial for the early diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma, the leading cause of visual impairment and blindness. The development of portable technologies, such as smartphone-based ophthalmoscopes, able to image the optical nerve head, represents a resource for large-scale glaucoma screening. Indeed, they consist of an optical device attached to a common smartphone, making the overall device cheap and easy to use.

Background: Small airway dysfunction (SAD) and impaired diffusion capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide ( ) are positively associated with a worse prognosis. Individuals with both dysfunctions have been identified in clinical practice and it is unknown whether they have worse health status or need management. We conducted this study to explore the association between SAD and impaired , and the difference between the groups with two dysfunctions, with either one dysfunction and with no dysfunction.
