DOI: 10.1002/2017jg004050
Abstract: Biofilms, consisting of microorganisms and their secreted extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), serve as “ecosystem engineers” stabilizing sedimentary environments. Natural sediment bed provides an excellent substratum for biofilm growth. The porous structure and rich nutrients allow… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Promising effects of DOPO-PEPA (DP), an environmental-friendly flame retardant, on the processing of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) are studied via rheological experiments. DP reveals profound melt stabilization and lubrication effects even at low concentrations (~1 wt%).… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevaccelbeams.24.024402
Abstract: We present a theory that can compute the transverse coupled-bunch instability growth rates at any chromaticity and for any longitudinal potential provided only that the long-range wakefield varies slowly over the bunch. The theory is… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The authors analyze financial interactions between chartists with bounded leverage and fundamentalists within a heterogeneous agent model, focusing on the role of fundamentalists to stabilize prices. While many related studies are solely based on… read more here.
