multiple sclerosis (ms) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that inflammation, demyelination, oligodendrocyte loss, gliosis, axonal injury and neurodegeneration are the main histopathological hallmarks of the disease. although ms was classically thought as a demyelinating disease, but axonal injury occurs commonly in acute inflammatory lesions. in ms mi...

In this proof of concept study we demonstrate direct utilization of limonene containing waste product orange peel as starting material for a biocatalytic cascade reaction. The product of this cascade is chiral carvolactone, a promising building block for thermoplastic polymers. Four different concepts were applied to augment limonene availability based on either water extraction solely, additio...

Adopting the setting for the study of existence and scale locality of the energy cascade in 3D viscous flows in physical space recently introduced by the authors to 3D inviscid flows, it is shown that the anomalous dissipation is – in the case of decaying turbulence – indeed capable of triggering the cascade which then continues ad infinitum, confirming Onsager’s predictions.

In this article, we explore the potential of the computer to support curriculum materials development within the context of secondary level science and mathematics education in southern Africa. During the four-year course of the study, a computer program was developed named CASCADE-SEA, which stands for Computer Assisted Curriculum Analysis, Design and Evaluation for Science (and mathematics) E...

Nanofluidic energy absorption system (NEAS) with cascade characteristics can absorb on different levels simultaneously in one system, which greatly enriches its functions and applications. The pore structure size distribution of porous media play a crucial role the design construction nanofluidic systems. In this paper, two models were constructed using carbon nanotubes diameters, was model tub...
