Coastal risk reduction features are often built to protect infrastructure and ecosystems from damaging waves, sea level rise, and shoreline erosion.Engineers often use predictive numerical modeling tools, such as Delft3D to help design optimal intervention strategies.Still, their use by coastal managers for optimizing the design of living shoreline
Background: Early detection of secondary caries near dental restorations is essential to prevent further microtech 184-10 complications.This systematic review seeks to evaluate the sensitivity of fluorescence and near-infrared (NIR) imaging techniques for detecting secondary caries and to provide insight into their clinical utility.Methods: A compr

The purpose of this work was the production of cellulose micro-nanofibrils from wood pulps through a combination of mechanical treatments, including a recently patented process, a so-called aqueous counter collision (ACC) method followed by ultrasound treatment.Previously to ACC process, the raw pulp materials had to be downscaled to micro-sized di
