Characteristics of agro-residue reinforced plastic ceiling board composites from rice husks and polyethylene terephthalate

open access: yesDiscover Mechanical Engineering
Ceiling boards are highly needed in our daily lives due to the need for temporary ceilings in the construction industry. However, the use of ceiling boards in Uganda is affected by climate fluctuation, with a dominant wet season throughout the year which

Average Marginal Tax Rates from Social Security and the Individual Income Tax [PDF]

open access: yes
We extend previous estimates of the average marginal tax rate from the federal individual income tax to include social security "contributions." The social security tax is a flat-rate levy on labor earnings (and income from self-employment) up to a ...

Does Participating in Agricultural Global Value Chains Promote Agricultural Growth?

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship between GVC participation and agricultural value‐added growth in 43 countries over the period 1995–2022. In contrast to prior literature, we disaggregate the agricultural sector into four sub‐sectors namely crop cultivation, animal production, forestry and fishing.

Model‐based fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control in safety‐critical chemical reactors: An experimental study

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates a fault‐tolerant control (FTC) approach for continuous stirred‐tank reactors (CSTR), emphasizing the importance of timely interventions to ensure operational safety under fault conditions. A systematic methodology combining residual‐based fault estimation and Dynamic Safety Margin (DSM) monitoring is developed to guide ...

Parametric Analysis of Spiking Neurons in 16 nm Fin Field‐Effect Transistor Technology

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Energy efficient computing has driven a shift toward brain‐inspired neuromorphic hardware. This study explores the design of three distinct silicon neuron topologies implemented in 16 nm fin field‐Effect transistor technology. While the Axon‐Hillock design achieves gigahertz throughput, its functional fragility persists. The Morris–Lecar model captures

Do ceiling fans in rooms help to reduce or disperse the transmission of breathing aerosols?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration
The main focus of this study is the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 through virus-laden aerosols in enclosed spaces that utilize ceiling fans. The impact of an air circulation of ceiling fans on virus transmission is not clear.
