Market demands for sustainability has propelled the need cost-effective manufacturing techniques and eco-friendly materials in several industries, such as automotive. Bio-materials are a current trend due to qualities like renewability biodegradability, combined with exceptional mechanical properties. The rise of biocomposites, especially those derived from bioprepregs materials, become reality this industry. With uniqueness fully bio-based prepreg, where matrix reinforcements themselves...
Emerging literature suggests that lifestyle factors may play an important role in reducing age-related cognitive decline. There have, however, been few studies investigating the of cognitively stimulating leisure activities maintaining health. This study sought to identify changes performance with age and investigate associations several key activities.

The field of composite materials is rapidly expanding due to advancements in and manufacturing, driven by environmental concerns for reduced weight, increased energy efficiency, recyclability. While thermoset composites are crucial, thermoplastics gaining popularity their sustainability manufacturing advantages. They offer quicker processing, easier production, recyclability, aligning with goals. carbon, glass, aramid fibers remain dominant, natural like flax hemp high performance...
Abstract Background Patients continue to suffer from medically unexplained symptoms otherwise referred as persistent physical (PPS). General practitioners (GPs) play a key role in the management of PPS and require further training. are often frustrated with care they receive. This study aims assess acceptability an ‘integrated GP care’ approach which consists offering self-help materials patients their GPs training on how utilise cognitive behavioural skills within consultations, well...
Introduction Persistent physical symptoms (PPS), also known as medically unexplained are associated with profound disability, psychological distress and high healthcare costs. England’s annual National Health Service costs of attempting to diagnose treat PPS amounts approximately £3 billion. Current treatment relies on a positive diagnosis, life-style advice drug therapy. However, many patients continue suffer from ongoing general practitioners (GPs) challenged find effective treatments....
