Paper explores the possibility of the capacity of private information retrieval (PIR) from databases coded using maximum distance separable (MDS) codes to be broken through joint encoding and storage of messages.

Article describes study evaluating the electro-catalytic behavior of recently developed Pt-, Pd-, and Pt/Pd-based metallic glasses using scanning electrochemical microscopy.

This article highlights the development of a flexible long-chain starch with a hyper-branched structure (HD), and incorporating it with SM and a crosslinking agent to prepare a novel SM adhesive. Results showed that this adhesive exhibited both excellent water resistance and enhanced toughness. The wet bond strength of plywood fabricated using this adhesive was 354.5% higher than that of SM adhesive.

This article performs X-ray photoelectron, Raman, and diffraction studies of few-layered pulsed laser deposited WS₂ films as a function of laser fluence and frequency to understand the impact on structure and properties.

This article microstructurally tailors an exceptionally high-strength titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo (Ti6246) through friction stir processing (FSP) in order to provide enhanced weight savings and improved fuel efficiency. The specific strength attained in one of the conditions is close to 450 MPa m³/mg, which is about 22% to 85% greater than any commercially available metallic material. This novel nano particle strengthened Ti alloy is a potential replacement for many structural alloys, enabling significant weight reduction opportunities.

Article describes an experiment where various chemical exfoliation routes for semiconducting two-dimensional (2D) layered material WS2 were explored, including magnetic stirring (MS), shear mixing (SM), and horn-tip (HT) sonication.

Article describes experiment where researchers synthesized a PEGylated isoniazid (PEG-g-INH or PEG–INH) by gamma radiation-induced polymerization for the first time.

Article investigates a novel genetically themed hierarchical algorithm (GTHA) to design Fresnel lens solar concentrators that match with the distinct energy input and spatial geometry of various thermal applications.

Data management plan for the grant "Integrating multi-omics datasets to infer phenotype-specific driver genes, regulatory interactions and drug response." Research to develop open source integrative computational tools that perform secondary analysis of publicly available multi-omics biological, clinical and environmental exposure datasets to infer context-specific regulatory interactions and modules, and to predict disease associated genes and patient-specific drug response.
