Effect of Polymer Removal on the Morphology and Phase of the Nanoparticles in All-Inorganic Heterostructures Synthesized via Two-Step Polymer Infiltration (open access)

Effect of Polymer Removal on the Morphology and Phase of the Nanoparticles in All-Inorganic Heterostructures Synthesized via Two-Step Polymer Infiltration

This article uses iron oxide/alumina heterostructures formed by two-step infiltration of polystyrene-block-polyvinyl pyridine block copolymer with iron and aluminum precursors from the solution and vapor-phases, respectively, to show that the phase and morphology of iron oxide nanoparticles dramatically depend on the approach used to remove the polymer. The article extends the boundaries of structure manipulations in multicomponent heterostructures synthesized using polymer infiltration synthesis and their properties.

A Mediation Analysis of the Association between Fundamental Motor Skills and Physical Activity during Middle Childhood (open access)

A Mediation Analysis of the Association between Fundamental Motor Skills and Physical Activity during Middle Childhood

This article investigates the associations between fundamental motor skills (FMS), health-related fitness (HRF) and physical activity (PA) during middle childhood and examines whether HRF serves as a mediator in these pathways. The behavioral mechanism (e.g., maintaining appropriate levels of HRF) provides meaningful insights to understand the obesity trajectory during middle childhood.

Approaching Bounded Rationality: From Quantum Probability to Criticality (open access)

Approaching Bounded Rationality: From Quantum Probability to Criticality

This article discusses the decision-making model (DMM), a paradigmatic instance of criticality, which deals with bounded rationality issues in a similar way as quantum probability (QP), generating choices that cannot be accounted by classical probability (CP). This work may contribute to considering criticality as another possible fundamental pillar in order to improve the understanding of cognition and of quantum mechanics.

Diffusion Entropy vs. Multiscale and RĂ©nyi Entropy to Detect Progression of Autonomic Neuropathy (open access)

Diffusion Entropy vs. Multiscale and RĂ©nyi Entropy to Detect Progression of Autonomic Neuropathy

This article reviews the literature to argue the importance of the occurrence of crucial events in the dynamics of physiological processes. Crucial events are interpreted as short time intervals of turbulence, and the time distance between two consecutive crucial events is a waiting time distribution density with an inverse power law (IPL) index µ, with µ < 3 generating non-stationary behavior.

Effect of amorphous cellulose on the deformation behavior of cellulose composites: molecular dynamics simulation

This article is a study aimed at predicting and enhancing the properties of the blend, as well as exploring the mechanism, of a polylactic acid (PLA)/amorphous cellulose composite system through molecular characterization. The static properties of the amorphous cellulose/PLA blend model and the mechanical response of the material under uniaxial tension were studied by molecular dynamics simulation to establish the structure–property relationship.

Does Perceived Competence Mediate between Ball Skills and Children’s Physical Activity and Enjoyment? (open access)

Does Perceived Competence Mediate between Ball Skills and Children’s Physical Activity and Enjoyment?

This article examines the potential mediating role of perceived motor skill competence on relationships between actual ball skills and children’s physical activity (PA) and PA enjoyment. Correlation analyses showed positive relationships among the study variables. The findings highlight that ball skills significantly impact students’ perceived competence, positively and indirectly affecting their PA and PA enjoyment.
