Quantum oscillation (QO) measurements constitute a powerful method to measure the Fermi surface (FS) properties of metals. The observation of QOs is usually taken as strong evidence for the existence of extremal cross-sectional areas of the FS according to the famous Onsager relation. [...]

The electrolyte filling process is considered one of the bottlenecks of lithium-ion battery production due mainly to the long electrolyte wetting times. Additionally, the required experimental process design is time and material-intensive, increasing the development costs of new materials or cell designs. [...]

The water dynamics in a nanocomposite film thatconsists of the electrically conductive poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) and cellulosenanofibrils (CNFs) have been investigated during three cyclesof exposure to low and high relative humidity (RH = 5% and 85%,respectively) using quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS). Theobtained dynamical structure factors are transformed into theimaginary part of the dynamic susceptibility to better differentiatebetween the individual relaxation processes. [...]

Based on my experience as developer and maintainer of some numerical open-source libraries (libcerf, libkww, libformfactor), I will explain key concepts for writing code that computes a special function or integral with high accuracy and high speed.- Choose different numerical algorithms for different argument regions.- Don't be afraid of divergent series or ill-conditioned recursions. - Confine Chebyshev fits to small subregions. [...]

We discuss the manifold difficulties in cross-platform software deployment. We first consider a pure C++ project. [...]

Hemp seed proteins have garnered significant research attention in recent years; however, the poor functional properties of hemp protein limit their use in many industrial applications. In this study, we investigate the effects of roasting, high-pressure homogenization, and alkaline pH-shifting on hemp protein structure and functional properties. [...]

Mimicking the fibrous structures of meat is a significant challenge as natural plant protein assemblies lack the fibrous organisation ubiquitous in mammalian muscle tissues. In this work, wet-spun hydrogel fibres resembling the anisotropic fibrous microstructure of meat are fabricated using carboxymethyl cellulose as a model polysaccharide and sodium caseinate as a model protein which are crosslinked using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC). [...]

Coptis teeta rhizomes are a rich source of bioactive phytochemicals with significant applications in the food and nutraceutical industries. Standardized methods and solvent compositions are crucial to sustainably maximize bioactive yield while ensuring industrial feasibility. [...]

Artificial nerves that are capable of sensing, processing and memory functions at bio-realistic frequencies are of potential use in nerve repair and brain–machine interfaces. n-type organic electrochemical transistors are a possible building block for artificial nerves, as their positive-potential-triggered potentiation behaviour can mimic that of biological cells.
