For example, the “gray goo” of self-replicating nanobots envisaged by Bill Joy in the 2000 Wired article (Joy, 2000) might legitimately be considered an emergent risk, but it is far from being a plausible risk. In this way, plausibility acts as a crude filter to distinguish between speculative risks—which are plentiful—and credible ...

Oct 1, 2009 · Nanotechnology, which refers to the precise manipulation of matter at the nanometer scale, has revolutionized the commercial application of products in the fields of medicine, engineering, manufacturing, and information and environmental technology to name a few. 1 Nanomaterials are ultrafine single particles with a diameter less than 100 nm. 1 They …

Mar 1, 2014 · The possible updated positions of a grey wolf in 3D space are depicted in Fig. 3 (b). Note that the random vectors r 1 and r 2 allow wolves to reach any position between the points illustrated in Fig. 3. So a grey wolf can update its position inside the space around the prey in any random location by using Eqs. (3.1), (3.2).

Mar 1, 2014 · Although these two Cu-based oxides have contrasting properties, both oxides are of considerable interest in photovoltaics, gas sensors, CO oxidation catalysts, various heterogeneous catalysts, and LIBs, because of their low band-gap energy, high optical absorption, high catalytic activity, nontoxic nature, and low-cost [30], [31], [62], [63].
