Colloid retention and mobilization mechanisms under different physicochemical conditions in porous media: A micromodel study by Safna Nishad (16932474)

“…However, hydrophilic colloids redeposited on gas-water-solid interfaces or thin water films because of their greater capillary potential. Therefore, greater filtration efficiency is achieved with the hydrophilic colloids compared to the hydrophobic colloids for which the efficiency can be improved by changing the solution chemistry. …”

Disrupted harvests: how Ukraine – Russia war influences global food systems – a systematic review by Hamid El Bilali (15864930)

“…Similarly, the war has affected all the dimensions of food system sustainability (viz. environmental, social, economic, political). However, some phenomena have particularly affected the socio-economic dimension, such as food insecurity and malnutrition, poverty and vulnerability, and migration and displacement. …”

Production and investigation of flexible nanofibers of sPEEK/PVP loaded with RuO2 nanoparticles by Mariem Chamakh (14150481)

How Tax Policies Affect Qatar's Foreign Direct Investment by Abi Man Joshi (21544817)

“…As such, this thesis makes some of the recommendations on how making improvements on Qatari tax policies can indirectly impact the flow of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the country.…”

Welding of Semiconductor Nanowires by Coupling Laser-Induced Peening and Localized Heating by Kelly M. Rickey (19568770)

“…The characterization results indicate that solely laser peening or sintering can only moderately improve the thin film quality; however, when coupled together as laser peen sintering (LPS), the electrical conductivity enhancement is dramatic. LPS can decrease resistivity up to a factor of ~10,000, resulting in values on the order of ~105 Ω-cm in some cases, which is comparable to CdTe thin films. …”

Novel Concrete Mix for 3D Concrete Printing with Special Functions by Malek Omar Mohammad (20433575)

“…Another limitation of concrete use in modern construction is that the degree of architectural freedom is restricted to standard geometric structures. To address some of the limitations of conventional concrete construction, the proposed research develops a novel concrete material that possesses better thermal insulation properties, which can decrease energy consumption during the building’s operational phase, and is applicable for 3D concrete printing (3DCP), which removes the need for formwork, increases building design flexibility, and can improve the environmental effect. …”
