Channel Network Control on Seasonal Lake Area Dynamics in Arctic Deltas by Tejedor, Alejandro

“…We find that monthly shrinkage rates have a pronounced structured variability around the channel network with the shrinkage rate systematically decreasing farther away from the channels. This pattern of shrinkage is predominantly attributed to a deeper active layer enhancing near-surface connectivity and storage and greater vegetation density closer to the channels leading to increased evapotranspiration rates. …”

Low-level amikacin resistance induced by AAC(6′)-Ib and AAC(6′)-Ib-cr in extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacterales isolated from urine in children by Hassan Al, Mana

“…The study found that isolates carrying AAC(6′)-Ib-cr have on average a 2-fold higher amikacin MIC. The increased MIC may impact the ability to achieve a Cpeak/MIC > 8 assuming hypothetical peak concentrations between 20 mg/L and 30 mg/L, which could impact the antibiotic's efficacy as a theraputic agent.…”

A Brief Review on the Development Progress of High-Efficiency Klystrons by Soumaya Mandal (22467694)

“…Since the past few years, the high-performance multi-beam klystrons exhibited high efficiency by lowering perveance but are limited to a level ~70% with an output power ~6MW.In recent years, the development of high-efficiency klystrons with peak output power exceeding 20 MW and efficiency ranges from 80-90% has been fuelled by the demand for high-energy particle accelerators. …”

An additive manufacturing approach based on electrohydrodynamic printing to fabricate P3HT:PCBM thin films by Zulfikre Esa (19457344)

“…The films exhibited a broad visible absorption spectrum ranging from ~ 340 to ~ 600 nm, with a maximum peak λ_max located at ~ 500 nm. As the annealing temperature and the flow rate were increased, discernible alterations in the PCBM clusters were consequently observed in the blends of the film and the size of the PCBM clusters has decreased by 3% while the distance between them was highly reduced by as much as 82%.…”

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. …”
