Degradable hypercrosslinked porous polymer generated from aromatic polyketone by Handou Zheng, Guangshui Tu, Cheng Du, Heng Gao, Lixia Pei, Haiyang Gao

“…The hypercrosslinked structure of HCPK-X was fully characterized, and HCPK-OtBu had a mesopores structure (1.27–68.5 nm) and large surface area (S BET = 321 m2/g). HCPK-OtBu exhibits a good adsorption capability for aniline removal from aqueous solution, and its enhanced adsorption capability is ascribed to the interactions between aniline and the carbonyl and tert-butoxy groups. …”

Investigating the Effect of Preimpact Energy Dissipation on Coefficient of Restitution regarding the Slope-Boulder Interaction by Ran Bi, Shaoying Li, Gou Liu, Jianxi Ren, Yongjun Song

“…The results show that (1) as the inclination of initial velocity, higher rebound height, and the declining normal coefficient of restitution occur, a determinable linear function could demonstrate relationships among energy dissipation and all coefficient of restitution; when initial velocity exceeds 5 m/s, the recovery ability shows and produces an increasing trend with respect to the variation of kinematic coefficient of restitution and kinetic energy coefficient of restitution. (2) As the surface material varies, slope hardness and rebound ability influence normal coefficient of restitution, and the surface roughness and rotation feature dominate tangential coefficient of restitution; considering preimpact slope and boulder interactions, four types of coefficient of restitution follow declining trend with different material sequence. (3) Slope angle affects normal coefficient of restitution, and tangential coefficient of restitution relatively descends 18% and inclines 10% when the angle ranges from 30° to 75°; regarding preimpact moving status, it differs from bounce times. …”

The effect of site exposure index on the required capacities of aquaculture structures by Tobias Dewhurst, Samuel Rickerich, Michael MacNicoll, Nathaniel Baker, Zachary Moscicki

“…While there is still uncertainty about the utility of exposure indices as a linear predictor of structural loads, this research found that Exposure Velocity was the best linear predictor across structure types by a slim margin, followed closely by the Specific Exposure Energy, Exposure Velocity at a Reference Depth of 5 m, and the Structure-centered Drag-to-Buoyancy Ratio (R2 = 0.69, 0.61, 0.60, 0.60 respectively). …”

Application of Box-Behnken Design in Optimization of Glucose Production from Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Cellulose by Satriani Aga Pasma, Rusli Daik, Mohamad Yusof Maskat, Osman Hassan

“…Using the ridge analysis, the optimal conditions reaction time found for the production of glucose was 76 hours and 30 min, whereas the optimum amount of enzyme and cellulose was 0.5 mL and 0.9 g, respectively. Under these optimal conditions, the corresponding response value predicted for glucose concentration was 169.34 g/L, which was confirmed by validation experiments.…”
