To install the latest version from the github repository, use: This R package offers a wrapper around the Barnes-Hut TSNE C++ implementation of [2] [3]. Changes were made to the original code to allow ...

A dual Fabry-Perot interferometers (FPIs) sensor is demonstrated theoretically and experimentally for ultrasensitive strain sensing by using the Vernier effect and the tapered FBG-in-hollow silica ...

If you've ever opened a package and found gel silica packets inside, make sure you think twice before tossing them — there might be some jewelry in your life that could benefit from their presence.

In the past decade, electro-assisted sol–gel deposition was employed by different groups in the world to deposit thin coatings on a variety of substrates. By applying a negative potential, the ...

In case you didn't know, according to Discover Magazine, those little gel pellets act like sponges, soaking up moisture and condensation when there's too much. Oh, and FYI, they're great for winters ...

A miniature shock-wave pressure sensor based on an optical-fiber tip F-P cavity is described. The basic theory and fabrication process of this sensor are given. The transient interferometric phase of ...

Silica gel with a specific area of 382 m² g-1 and an average pore diameter of 60 Å was chemically modified with 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole, for the purpose of selective adsorption of heavy metals ions ...

Extracellular lipase from Beauveria bassiana strain CG481 was immobilized by using thirteen different immobilization protocols. Silica gel was chosen as the most suitable adsorbent with 94.8% of ...

Here, we developed silica aerogel/poly (vinyl alcohol) (PSG) composites by dispersing silica aerogel (SA) particles in poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) aqueous solution containing glass fibers (GF) and then ...

Silica gel isn't poisonous, but it's also not digestible, which is why it comes with that "DO NOT EAT" warning. The danger lies in choking, especially for kids or pets. Some types of silica gel are ...
