Distribution fitting 13. Analysis of independent, multiplicative effect of factors. Application to effect of essential oils extracts from plant species on bacterial species. Application to factors of antibacterial activity of plant species [PDF]
arXiv, 2011 A factor effect study was conducted on a set of observations at the contingency of a series of plant species and bacteria species regarding the antibacterial activity of essential oil extracts. The study reveals a very good agreement between the observations and the hypothesis of independent and multiplicative effect of plant and bacteria species ...

A Different Perspective on the Solid Lubrication Performance of Black Phosphorous: Friend or Foe?
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Researchers investigate black phosphorous (BP) as a standalone solid lubricant coating through ball‐on‐disc linear‐reciprocating sliding experiments in dry conditions. Testing on different metals shows BP doesn't universally reduce friction and wear. However, it achieves 33% friction reduction on rougher iron surfaces and 23% wear reduction on aluminum.
