Lessons from Sao Paulo's Metropolitan Busway Concessions Program [PDF]
In an earlier paper (Policy Research Working Paper 1546), the authors described a pioneer initiative of Sao Paulo's municipal and state governments, to give the private sector a concession on building and operating a number of"trunk"busways. At the time,

Revealing the Role of Interfacial Charge Transfer in Mechanoluminescence
Mechanoluminescence (ML) involves light emission induced by mechanical stress, categorized into triboluminescence (TL), piezoluminescence (PL), sonoluminescence (SL), and triboelectrification-induced electroluminescence (TIEL).

A Simple Approach to Characterize Gas-Aqueous Liquid Two-phase Flow Configuration Based on Discrete Solid-Liquid Contact Electrification [PDF]
In this study, we first suggest a simple approach to characterize configuration of gas-aqueous liquid two-phase flow based on discrete solid-liquid contact electrification, which is a newly defined concept as a sequential process of solid-liquid contact ...
