Summary: Understanding the rheological properties and printability of complex food formulations is crucial for 3D printing. This study reports on nutritious food formulations with multiple ingredients, including by-products and sustainable proteins. The concentration of pregelatinized corn starch and printing temperature were varied, and the rheological properties and printability were evaluated. The results showed that the concentration of pregelatinized starch had an impact on the rheological properties, but high values did not necessarily result in improved printability.

Summary: This paper develops a systematic multiscale stochastic reduced order model (ROM) framework for complex systems with strong chaotic or turbulent behavior. The new ROM focuses on recovering the large-scale dynamics and also captures the statistical features of medium-scale variables. It incorporates physics constraints and facilitates an efficient and accurate scheme for nonlinear data assimilation.

Summary: Polyurethanes (PUs) have a wide range of applications in the biomedical field, showing advanced properties such as controlled biotic and abiotic degradation. They possess precise tissue biomimicking structures and shape-recovery properties, making them suitable for cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. While substitution of fossil-based materials for biomedical implants is slowly improving, achieving higher renewable contents is still necessary for biobased certifications.

Summary: This study provides an in-depth comparison between quantum annealing and classical optimization techniques. The results show that, despite its size limitations, the quantum annealer significantly outperforms classical techniques in minimizing potentials. The study also reveals that Nelder-Mead and gradient descent methods are prone to being trapped in false minima, while the thermal anneal method performs slightly better.

Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of Chlorella vulgaris additions on the printability of cereal-based doughs. The results showed that lower levels of C. vulgaris incorporation led to doughs with lower texture and rheology properties, resulting in more accurate printed structures. Additionally, increasing additions of C. vulgaris produced darker doughs, while lower levels of incorporation improved the overall appreciation of the snack. Furthermore, subtle sensory attributes had a positive impact on overall appreciation.

Summary: Transformers are widely used in natural language processing, but their applicability outside of this field is limited. This work proposes using transformer models to predict dynamical systems representative of physical phenomena. By using Koopman based embeddings, the dynamical systems can be projected into a vector representation and predicted by a transformer. Experimental results show that the proposed model accurately predicts various dynamical systems and outperforms classical methods.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of higher-order interactions on network synchronization in fractional-order complex systems. The results show that higher-order interactions contribute to earlier synchronization, and lower fractional-order values accelerate the synchronization process. The findings are validated using multiple models.

Summary: This study explores the use of 3D printing technology to transform orange peel waste into edible, healthy snacks, aiming to address the detrimental environmental and economic impacts of discarding such waste. Through direct ink writing, edible constructs containing orange peel waste were successfully created. Biochemical analysis and cell viability tests revealed that the nutritional and antioxidant content of the orange peel waste was not affected during the manufacturing process. This study highlights the potential of revalorizing food waste and achieving more sustainable and circular food manufacturing and consumption through 3D printing.

Summary: Food engineers have long tried to describe physical phenomena in food through mathematical models, but the use of computer-aided engineering in the food industry is still relatively less established. The complexity of food matrices is a major reason for this gap. Modeling food particle systems can help researchers address challenges, but further attention is needed especially related to physics-based contact models for discrete-element models of food particle systems.

Summary: This study aimed to analyze the properties and printability of a unique starch from chachafruto. The chachafruto starch demonstrated excellent yield and purity, with oval and round morphologies. It presented good thermal stability and formed films with reduced crystallinity, high elasticity, and good barrier properties. 3D prints made with this starch displayed favorable texture and consistency, but high concentrations were not efficient. This work highlights the industrial potential of chachafruto as an alternative source of starch.

Summary: In this study, an in vitro approach was used to investigate the release of an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient-Ionic Liquid (API-IL) from a natural biopolymer matrix based on zein. The results demonstrated that the matrix had good thermal stability and in vivo biological activity, and the release of the API-IL was mainly achieved through a diffusion mechanism.
