The continuous development of fifth-generation (5G) networks is the main driving force for the growth of Internet of Things (IoT) applications.It is expected that the 5G network will greatly expand the applications of the IoT, thereby promoting the operation of cellular networks, the security and network challenges of the IoT, and pushing the futur

Interactions between surfaces are ubiquitous phenomena in living organisms.Nature has developed sophisticated strategies for lubricating these systems, increasing their efficiency and life span.This includes the use of water-based lubricants, such as saliva and synovial fluid.These fluids overcome the limitations of water as a lubricant by the pres

IntroductionWhile early separation of dairy calves after birth has been debated from an ethical and animal welfare lens, the economic evidence surrounding alternative cow-calf contact (CCC) systems is scarce.MethodsTo address this knowledge gap, we assessed the economic consequences of CCC systems using data from the Agriwise database as well as pa

Silicon photonics has been an area of active research and development.Researchers have been working on enhancing the integration density and CUTICLE ELIMINATOR intricacy of silicon photonic circuits.This involves the development of advanced fabrication techniques and novel designs to enable more functionalities on a single chip, leading to Long Sle

The need for sustainability and a smaller ecological footprint lead to the construction of more airtight building envelopes with better thermal insulation to increase energy efficiency according to the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD 2010/31/EU).However, specific fire risks can be encountered by the occupants since they can be block
