Design and Analysis of Floater Structures using Composite Material in 19 Seaters Aircraft by Andi Muhdiar Kadir, Arief Setyawan, Fithri Nur Purnamasari, Nurhadi Pramana, Muhammad, Ilham Akbar Adi Satriya, Riza Wirawan, Budi Sampurno

“…The N219 amphibious aircraft was developed based on the N219 basic aircraft (maximum take-off weight, MTOW 7030 kg), with the incorporation of two floats, enabling it to land on both land and water surfaces. It was intended that the addition of this float would not significantly change the performance of the N219 aircraft, so there was no need to make big changes in terms of the number of passengers. one of the important factors in this performance was the weight penalty. …”

In-Situ Electrospinning Dressings Loaded with Kaempferol for Reducing MMP9 to Promote Diabetic Ulcer Healing by Li J, Meng H, Guo W, Zhou L, Wu S, Gao G, Liu Q, You D, Qu W

“…Histological and immunofluorescence staining were performed to determine the status of epithelization, collagen deposition, MMP9 expression, macrophage polarization, inflammation response and angiogenesis.Results: Material science experiments have shown that the dressing has optimal fiber micromorphology and good water vapor transport properties (WVTR: 4.88 kg m− 2 24h− 1); in vivo, diabetic wound experiments have shown that the high porosity and pharmacological effects of PED4 can mutually promote the rapid healing of diabetic wounds (healed 95.9% on day 15), facilitate the transformation of macrophages from M1-type to M2-type and regulate the expression of MMP9.Conclusion: Portable electrospinning dressings equipped with kaempferol not only better fit irregular wounds, but also promote wound healing through MMP9 and macrophage polarization. …”

Revealing the fireworks-set-off pattern of spatial multi-function expansion across cities leveraging big geodata – a case of the Greater Bay Area, China by Ku Gao, Xiaomei Yang, Zhihua Wang, Yueming Liu, Huifang Zhang, Xiaoliang Liu, Qingyang Zhang

“…We found that (1) across-cities SMFE exhibited a fireworks-set-off pattern, including sprawling along river in the plains between coastal port cities and inland core cities and diffusing from inland core cities on the plains to inland node cities in the mountains; (2) social-living, business-trade, and industry-production functions were sequentially primary expanding functions; (3) paddy and forest were two major land cover types encroaching upon inland cities, while coastal cities primarily suffered from losses of water. In the future, planners should focus on ecological protection of hilly and coastal areas when formulating industrial transfer policies and enhancing transport networks. …”
