Microcapsule-based self-protecting coatings
… and other alloying elements. More recently, self-protective coatings have been introduced using microencapsulated anti-corrosion chemicals and compounds that are released on demand at the site of active corrosion. Once triggered via capsule release, the passive coating later is activated …

Stimuli-responsive microcapsules for self-protecting and self-healing material systems
… a variety of smart microcapsules to develop self-protecting and self-healing material systems. Monodisperse, stimuli-responsive microcapsules are required for applications involving precise and controlled delivery of chemical payloads. However, such microcapsules are difficult to fabricate …

Protecting the Self, Protecting White Supremacy: Exploring the Relationship Between Psychological Defense, Gender, and White Fragility
Historically, research connected to social justice has focused on the experiences, challenges, and strengths of individuals on the margins (Jamel, 2017). Only more recently has research begun to address individuals of relative privilege who exert power over marginalized groups and may perpetuate …

Energy aware techniques for certain problems in Wireless Sensor Networks
… of broadcasting, routing, target monitoring, self-protecting networks, and topology control with an emphasis on minimizing and balancing energy consumption among the sensors in such networks. Several interesting theoretical results and bounds have been obtained for these problems which are …

Stability and quench protection of high-temperature superconductors
… HTS-based electric power devices, though, YBCO itself to date is still in the development phase. For protection against overheating, an HTS magnet assembled with pancake coils may be made self-protecting through speedy 2-D or even 3-D normal zone propagation (NZP) within its winding, aided by good …

Two-dimensional quench propagation model for a three-dimensional "high-temperature" superconducting coil
… below which the magnet can be considered self-protecting. The simulation also demonstrates that shunted subdivision lowers the maximum temperature.

Efficient admission control and routing for resilient communication networks
… can be implemented, e.g, by MPLS technology. The Self-Protecting Multi-Path (SPM) is a multi-path consisting of disjoint partial paths. The traffic is distributed over all faultless partial paths according to an optimized load balancing function both in the working case and in failure scenarios. …

A specification method for the scalable self-governance of complex autonomic systems
… have sought to endow computer systems with selfmanagement capabilities by delegating vital functions to the software itself and proposed the Autonomic Computing model. Hence inducing the so-called self-* properties including the system's ability to be self-configuring, self-optimising, …

Abrasion-corrosion of cast CoCrMo in simulated hip joint environments
… better wear resistance through these inherent self-protecting mechanisms (i.e. increased hardness); conversely, it may become the precursors to debris ejection and enhanced ion-release into the CoCrMo joints.<br/>This work established an experimental technique that gives greater understanding …
