Tuning the ionic character of sodium dodecyl sulphate via counter-ion binding: An experimental and computational study

Solutions of surfactants exhibit remarkable features, such as a tunable amphiphilic character, which can further be varied for ionic surfactants through variations in their Coulombic interactions.These properties are very useful in many industrial applications such ikea university starter pack 2023 as in extraction, purification, and formulation pr

Motion planner of mobile robots for obstacles in occluded areas

Motion planning for mobile robots considering occluded obstacles is a navigation challenge in dynamic environments.If an obstacle suddenly appears from the occluded area, a robot might collide with the obstacle.This is the occlusion problem.Therefore, this paper proposes a novel motion planner, Velocity Obstacle for Occlusion, VOO.The VOO is based
