Analysis and Extension of Switched Inductor and Capacitor Based High Gain DC-DC Boost Converter with Flexible Control at Higher Gains by Iqbal, A.

“…To achieve the desired bus voltage in a DC microgrid, a conventional DC-DC converter used as an interconnecting device must operate at a high duty ratio, which may be detrimental to the device's health and lead to issues including diode reverse recovery problems, unwanted transient response, voltage ripples, losses, and decreased efficiency. …”

Influence of blending and blend morphology on the thermal properties and crystallization behaviour of PLA and PCL in PLA/PCL blends by Luyt, A.S.

“…A kinetic analysis of the crystallization of neat PCL and PCL in the blends showed that the crystallization mechanism of the neat PCL changed from instantaneous/heterogeneous nucleation and two-dimensional growth to sporadic/homogeneous nucleation and two-dimensional growth with decreasing crystallization temperature, while for PCL in the blends, the mechanism over the whole crystallization temperature range was that of instantaneous/heterogeneous nucleation and three-dimensional growth into spherulites. …”

Experimental analysis of additively manufactured thin-walled heat-treated circular tubes with slits using AlSi10Mg alloy by quasi-static axial crushing test by Mohamed A.S.

“…In this study, additively manufactured aluminum thin-walled tubes with different slit dimensions are proposed to improve energy absorption efficiency. A total of 18 samples, which varied in the number of slits, slit length, slit width, and slit ends, were tested under quasi-static axial compression at a rate of 20 mm/min. …”

Factors associated with meeting current recommendation for physical activity in scottish adults with diabetes by Salman A.

“…Independent determinants of meeting the recommended levels of physical activity include male gender (odds ratio (OR) 1.47; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.07–2.00) and being a non-smoker (OR 1.62; 95% CI 1.02–2.56). Furthermore, meeting the recommended physical activity levels decreased with age (OR 0.96; 95% CI 0.95–0.97), having a longstanding illness (OR 0.56; 95% CI 0.34–0.93) and body mass index (OR 0.94; 95% CI 0.92–0.97), but increased with higher fruit and vegetable intake (OR 1.16; 95% CI 1.07–1.25) and mental wellbeing (OR 1.04; 95% CI 1.02–1.06). …”

Do older adults with multimorbidity meet the recommended levels of physical activity? An analysis of Scottish health survey by Salman A.

“…Independent predictors of meeting the recommended levels of PA include male gender [odds ratio (OR) 2.00 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.58–2.54)], living in the least deprived areas [OR 1.79 (95% CI 1.20–2.69)]; being a non-smoker [OR 2.22 (95% CI 1.48–3. 34)]. Also, meeting recommended PA decreased with age [OR 0.92 (95% CI 0.90–0.94)] and body mass index [OR 0.93 (95% CI 0.91–0.95]; but increased per additional portion of fruit and vegetables taken [OR 1.19 (95% CI 1.12–1.25)] and with increase in well-being scale score [OR 1.05 (95% CI 1.03 to 1.06)]. …”
