This paper introduces a Special Issue on heterodox economics of the environment and sustainability. At present, humanity faces several challenges, such as resource scarcity, biodiversity loss and climate change. And yet, we would argue, contributions from traditional ‘heterodox’ schools of…

The poly(o-aminophenol) (POAP) redox process has been studied in aqueous acid solution using spectroscopic and optic in situ
techniques. The redox transition of the POAP from its completely oxidized state to its completely reduced state occurs through two
consecutive reactions…

The technique of holographic inte rferometly used to visualize the ultrafiltration membrane
surroundings makes it possible to visualize solute retention and verifi whether or
not there is cake formation on the membrane surface during the ultrafiltration of bovine
serum albumin…

A more accurate analytical approximate expression for the slope at any point of the elastic curve of a slender cantilever column is obtained by using a heuristic but pedagogical derivation. This derivation is based on the linearization of the nonlinear…

The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of the fat mass percentage and age on the mobility of these children. It was used the EK functional motor scale to determine their movement capacity. It was also used…

Endothelial dysfunction has an important role in genesis of atherosclerosis and is depicted by a series of inflammatory and endothelial biomarkers. Shear stress arising from repeated episodes of increased blood flow with physical activity (PA) is a possible mechanism that…

Commentary, Jacinta Kelly warns that women who take on too many career, childcare and household
responsibilities are more likely to ignore the signals of impending cardiovascular events.

A re-designed microwave-based thermal nebulizer (MWTN) that overcomes all the drawbacks shown by previous prototypes (i.e. lack of robustness, poor heating efficiency) is presented. The new device employs an optimized TM010 cavity and nozzle design. MWTN performance was evaluated in…
