Astaxanthin (AST) and pycnogenol (PYC) are natural bioactive compounds commonly used in pharmaceuticals and functional foods due to their highly antioxidant activity and potential health benefits. However, the widespread application of astaxanthin is hindered by its poor water solubility and highly unsaturated structure. In this study, nanoparticles co-delivering astaxanthin and pycnogenol (NAP) were fabricated to enhance the dispersibility, stability, and bioavailability of astaxanthin.

Recently, the application of textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) in thin-walled precast structures has gained significant attention. Among these innovations, the combination of TRC and reinforced concrete (RC) has emerged as an effective method for creating hybrid structural systems. This paper presents the experimental results analyzing the shear behavior of a hybrid deck slab structure consisting of TRC stay-in-place (SiP) formwork and RC components.

Seismic analysis of soil-structure interaction (SSI) is a challenge due to the nonlinearities of soil-foundation interaction (SFI). The reliability of the design and the analysis results will suffer if SSI is ignored. In this paper, a two-step method based on the superposition theorem is used to perform a seismic analysis of a soil-foundation-tank-liquid system (soil-liquid tank system).

In low-cost permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive systems, the rotor position is usually estimated based on the back-electromotive force. However, such estimation methods have the common drawback of having large errors in low-speed regions. In order to solve that drawback in the startup phase, the I-f startup method is studied as its compatibility with the FOC control structure.

This study employs the tight-binding density functional method GFN1-xTB to investigate the structural and electronic properties of TiO2-ZnO and TiO2-ZnO composite materials modified by Li, Na, K, and Fe metals. Computational analyses reveal the formation of weak covalent bonds between the TiO2 and ZnO components within the composite system. Doping TiO2-ZnO with metals induces significant alterations in the electronic structure, particularly in terms of ionization energy and global electrophilic index.

A damage diagnosis method for trusses based on incomplete free vibration properties utilizing ensemble learning, e.g. Extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), is presented in this work. Owing to the lack of measurement sensors, modal features are only measured at master degrees of freedom (DOFs) of a few first models instead of all DOFs of a structural system.

Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been used as an anticancer drug delivery system with high safety and entrapment capacity thanks to their large internal space for drug accommodation, durable structure, and good biocompatibility. However, the treatment efficiency of the bare MSNs is limited due to its drug leakage and burst release. In this study, a phospholipid bilayer was covered on the MSNs surface (MSN@Lip) as a liposomal cap that not only reduced drug leakage but also improved the stability of the colloidal system.
