effects of water on the catalytic performances of movtenbo catalyst in the oxidation of propane to acrylic acid have been investigated at different reaction temperatures and different steam contents. obtained results show that both catalytic performances and catalyst structure are very sensitive to the presence of water vapor in the reaction feed. presence of water induces some structural modif...

DOI: 10.1002/admi.201500080 concerns pine cones, where asymmetrically positioned differently aligned layers of the nanoand mesoscale cellulose fi brils induce asymmetric water swelling, leading to bending. [ 15 ] In this way, the structure can be considered to be a biological counterpart to so-called bilayer actuators, which are extensively used in technology and science, involving different ex...

Drawing from three phases of a social research programme between 2002 and 2008, this paper proposes a framework for underpinning the development of urban water transitions policy and city-scale benchmarking at the macro scale. Through detailed historical, contemporary and futures research involving Australian cities, a transitions framework is proposed, presenting a typology of six city states,...
