In article number 2000520, Yixiang Gan and co-workers developed an experimentally validated model to tailor spontaneous droplets movement on surfaces with prescribed wedge shapes. This work reveals designed wedges convex shapes have a better performance in enhancing droplet transport applications, such as fog harvesting.

Abstract Water emergency is one of the terrible effects climate change; it defined as Blue gold twenty-first century. In this scenario, fog stands a potential alternative water resource. Many territories are affected by phenomenon; here collectors have been developed to extract from humid mass air. The aim paper explore application technology in building sector. Large Fog Collector device commo...

results the results showed that the fog amount in input raw sewage in the mwwtp from june 2011 to september 2011 was around 25.5 mg/l and the amount in treated wastewater was about 8.1 mg/l. the fog removal efficiency in this refinery was about 70% and met the environmental standards for the discharge (less than 10 mg/l) (p < 0.05). conclusions the effluent can be discharged to surface waters o...

Germ cell specification as sperm or oocyte is an ancient cell fate decision, but its molecular regulation is poorly understood. In Caenorhabditis elegans, the FOG-1 and FOG-3 proteins behave genetically as terminal regulators of sperm fate specification. Both are homologous to well-established RNA regulators, suggesting that FOG-1 and FOG-3 specify the sperm fate post-transcriptionally. We pred...

Introduction: This study aims at investigating whether impaired anticipatory postural adjustments (APA) during gait initiation contribute to the occurrence of freezing of gait (FOG) or whether altered APAs compensate for FOG in Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods: Gait initiation after 30 s quiet stance was analyzed without and with a cognitive dual task (DT) in 33 PD subjects with FOG (PD+FOG), ...
