This paper reviews the mechanisms of carbon sequestration, methods for testing carbon sequestration capacity, and the performance of functional materials, including wollastonite, titanium dioxide nanoparticles (Nano-TiO2), graphene oxide (GO), biochar, and cellulose fibers (CS), as well as their performance in cement-based materials.A system bounda
Reliability Study of Electronic Components on Board-Level Packages Encapsulated by Thermoset Injection Molding
A drastically growing requirement of electronic packages with an increasing level of complexity poses newer challenges for the competitive manufacturing industry.Coupled with harsher operating conditions, these challenges affirm the need for encapsulated board-level (2nd level) packages.To reduce thermo-mechanical loads induced on the electronic co
Do Wind Turbines Affect Weather Conditions?: A Case Study in Indiana
Wind turbines are becoming increasingly widespread in the United States as the world looks for cleaner sources of energy.Scientists, policymakers, and citizens have strong opinions regarding the positive and negative effects of wind energy projects, and there is a great deal of misinformation about wind energy circulating on the Web and other media
Cholinergic Neurons - Keeping Check on Amyloid beta in the Cerebral Cortex
The physiological relevance Socks of the uptake of ligands with no apparent trophic functions via the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) remains unclear.Herein, we propose a homeostatic role for this in clearance of amyloid β (Aβ) in the brain.We hypothesize that uptake of Aβ in conjunction with p75NTR followed by its deg
