Sensitivity analysis of velocity field influence on condensers’ performance and parallel circuit design based on actual air velocity distribution

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
Currently, most integral simulations of condensers are based on the assumption of uniform intake air, which differs from real scenarios and leads to imprecise circuit designs.

Cell cycle-related changes in the surface properties of amoebae of the cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]

, 1984
Amoebae of the cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum were harvested during exponential, axenic growth and were partitioned in a dextran-poly(ethylene glycol) two-phase system in a countercurrent distribution apparatus.

Exploring identity negotiation among disabled, Black international women pursuing undergraduate engineering degrees

Journal of Engineering Education, Volume 115, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Background The experiences of the disabled community are notably absent from engineering education scholarship, with existing research often treating this group as a monolith. Intersectionality provides a critical framework for addressing this gap, illuminating the complexities of disability within ableist contexts by focusing on how ...

Characterization of the Shallow Oxygen Minimum Zone of the Eastern Tropical North Atlantic

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The Eastern Tropical North Atlantic (ETNA) hosts a shallow Oxygen Minimum Zone (sOMZ) extending roughly from 50 to 250 m depth, where oxygen concentrations typically fall to 40–60 μmol L−1. Despite its ecological and biogeochemical importance, the spatial and temporal characteristics of the hypoxic events that shape this sOMZ remain poorly ...
