Article describes how the conformal nanoporous inorganic coatings with accessible pores that are stable under applied thermal and mechanical stresses represent an important class of materials used in the design of sensors, optical coatings, and biomedical systems. Authors synthesize porous AlOx and ZnO coatings by the sequential infiltration synthesis (SIS) of two types of polymers that enable the design of porous conformal coatings.

Article examining Aluminium alloy 5083 subjected to Laser Shock Peening both with (LSP) and without protective coating (LPwC) at multiple pulse densities. A second LPwC treatment was conducted fully submersed under water, in addition to the standard laminar water flow condition. Results show that compressive residual stresses were generated in all cases, although their character varied depending on the peening strategy and method of confinement.

Article states that microneedles are highly sought after for medicinal and cosmetic applications. However, the current manufacturing process for microneedles remains complicated, hindering its applicability to a broader variety of applications. This experimental study enables the shapes and mechanical properties of the microneedles to be predicted in advance for mass production and wide practical use for biomedical or cosmetic applications.

This article aims to determine the nucleation and growth mechanisms of PbSO4 nanoparticles in various solutions to potentially reduce or control the buildup of PbSO4 on battery electrodes over time.

Article describes how this study presents a systematic design of an optimized drive signal control system for 2.5 GHz Doherty power amplifiers (DPAs). In this manuscript, the authors analyzed and compared the PAE of the DPA and parallel-connected PA for diverse input signals generated using a designed optimized control system

Article implements and tests the performances of several approximation algorithms for computing the minimum dominating set of a graph. This article belongs to the Special Issue: Algorithms for Hard Graph Problems.

This article provides a big picture of PIoT architecture, vision, and future research scope. The exploratory study of PIoT is in its infancy, which will explore the expansion of new use cases, service requirements, and the proliferation of PIoT devices. This is a preprint version of this article.
