Beyond the Camera: Epidermal Sensor Platforms for Intelligent Facial Expression Recognition and Interactive Human Monitoring

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Skin‐conformal epidermal sensors enable camera‐free intelligent facial monitoring by converting facial deformation and muscle activity into electrical signals through piezoresistive, capacitive, electrophysiologic, and self‐powered mechanisms. Coupled with artificial intelligence (AI), these platforms support facial expression recognition, human ...

Experimental study on enhancing effect of FeCl3 on microbial mineralization of sandy soils

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a promising technique for soil improvement. However, the disadvantage of the MICP-based method for soil treatment is that the intended effect of improvement can only be achieved by ...

The causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on Germany's grasslands during a compound drought and heatwave in 2018

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preserving ecosystem services, along with economic and environmental benefits, will require future landscape policies to identify and incorporate relevant landscape features. In this paper, we investigate the causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on drought‐related grassland damages.

Exposure to heat waves and drought improves subsequent leaf heat tolerance for five oak species in southern California

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Given the threats of climate change, we investigated the impact of high temperatures separately and in combination with reduced soil water on leaf heat tolerance for five oaks (Fagaceae) with overlapping ranges in southern California, USA: Quercus agrifolia and Q. chrysolepis (evergreen species), Q. douglasii and Q.

Effect of crushability on the drained shear behavior of carbonate sand

Results in Engineering
Soil crushability reflects the susceptibility of granular materials to particle breakage and significantly affects their shear response. To quantify crushability arising from different initial gradations, this paper proposes a dimensionless crushability index IC. Carbonate sand specimens were prepared with four initial gradations: uniform, gap, fractal

Bedform development in carbonate skeletal sand : influence of fluid velocity and grain size in flume experiments [PDF]

, 1993
Sedimentological processes responsible for the development of current-derived bedforms and stratification types in carbonate sand, and their potential application to the interpretation of the origin of carbonate rocks with clastic textures, have been ...

Fabrication of rapid sand filter for water treatment using sand and activated carbon

Global Journal of Engineering and Technology Advances
It is pertinent to provide safe drinking water to the people as quality of water keeps deteriorating. According to World Health Organization (WHO), water and hygiene are the primary drivers of public health. Filtration is a water treatment process used for removal of microorganisms and colloidal matters from raw water, therefore this study aims at ...

Normalized Modulus Reduction and Damping Ratio Curves for Bay of Campeche Carbonate Sand

, 2018
Predictive equations of normalized shear modulus (G/Gmax) and material damping ratio (D) are presented for calcareous sand, siliceous carbonate sand and carbonate sand of the Bay of Campeche and Tabasco Coastline. This was achieved using a database of 84

Experimental Studies on CO2 Hydrate Formation Kinetics With Kinetic Promoters

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration by means of gas hydrate formation is a promising method for mitigating global climate change. However, conventional surfactants like sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) exhibit limitations such as excessive foaming and environmental toxicity. This study examines the effectiveness and environmental impact of Tween 65
