Polyaniline/Polystyrene Blends: In-Depth Analysis of the Effect of Sulfonic Acid Dopant Concentration on AC Conductivity Using Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy by Noora Al-Thani (14147829)

“…The conductivity is discussed in terms of changes in the dielectric permittivity storage <em>(ɛʼ)</em>, loss <em>(ɛʼʼ)</em>, and modulus <em>(Mʼʼ)</em> of the blends over a wide range of temperatures. This is linked to the glass transition temperature of the PANI. …”

Applications of bioconvection for tiny particles due to two concentric cylinders when role of Lorentz force is significant by Lei Zhang (38117)

Acute intense fatigue does not modify the effect of EVA and TPU custom foot orthoses on running mechanics, running economy and perceived comfort by Ken Van Alsenoy (14150559)

“…Flight time shortened (P = 0.026), peak braking (P = 0.016) and push-off (P = 0.032) forces decreased and vertical stiffness increased (P = 0.014) from before to after the repeated-sprint exercise, independent of footwear condition. …”

Driving simulation sickness and the sense of presence: Correlation and contributing factors by Mustafa Almallah (17280568)

“…Importantly, designing buildings that replicate a real-world environment could increase SP and decrease SS. Moreover, designing high quality and resolution scenarios could also increase SP, thus decreasing the severity of SS symptoms. …”

Predictive Power of Random Forests in Analyzing Risk Management in Islamic Banking by Ahmet Faruk Aysan (11902115)

“…Findings reveal that larger banks provide more consistent survey responses, driven by their confidence and larger survey budgets. Moreover, a positive link is established between a country’s development, characterized by high GDPs and low inflation and interest rates, and the precision of Islamic banks’ survey responses. …”

eIF4A inhibition prevents the onset of cytokine-induced muscle wasting by blocking the STAT3 and iNOS pathways by Zvi Cramer (10742876)

“…Furthermore, we show that hippuristanol perturbs the activation of the STAT3 pathway and expression of STAT3-gene targets such as IL-6. The decreased activation of STAT3, which resulted from a decrease in STAT3 protein expression, was due to the inhibition of STAT3 translation as there were no changes in STAT3 mRNA levels. …”
