CFD Analysis of Dual‐Layer PCM Roofs for Thermal Mitigation in Residential Buildings
ABSTRACT This study presents a computational fluid dynamics analysis of dual‐layer phase change material (PCM) roofs for passive cooling in residential buildings under the hot and humid climate of Bangladesh. A three‐dimensional transient model was developed in ANSYS Fluent using the enthalpy–porosity approach to simulate coupled heat conduction ...

A solar‐powered integrated thermoelectric generator only uses solar heating and seawater evaporative cooling for synergistically co‐generating electricity, freshwater, concentrated brine, and salt within a single device. It will be an important breakthrough, providing a practical zero‐carbon route in efficient water‐electricity cogeneration and ocean ...

Balance Disorders in Young and Middle‐Aged Adults: NHANES, 2001–2004 and 2021–2023
This study presents nationally‐representative estimates from two health exam surveys, NHANES 2001–2004 and 2021–2023. In the two decades between test periods, scores on the modified Romberg screening test for balance function demonstrated significantly better age‐specific performance in 2021–2023.

This study investigated how successive injection molding recycling affects the properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA). Gel permeation chromatography showed a two‐thirds molar mass reduction after ten reprocessing cycles. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed lower glass transition and cold crystallization temperatures.
