Investigation of cylinder deactivation and variable valve actuation on gasoline engine performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Increasingly stringent regulations on gasoline engine fuel consumption and exhaust emissions require additional technology integration such as Cylinder Deactivation (CDA) and Variable valve actuation (VVA) to improve part load engine efficiency.

Topological Properties of International Commodity Market: How Uncertainty Affects the Linkages?

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study aims to explore the network topology of the international commodity market by examining the interconnections among 21 commodity futures across various categories, including energy, precious and industrial metals, and agriculture. We analyze the market structure of these commodity futures under both low and high uncertainty conditions

Experimental investigation on combustion behaviour, performance and emission of fusel oil-gasoline blends using turbocharged SI engine

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2022
Because of rising energy demand and pollution concerns in the transportation and industrial sectors, alternative fuel development is critical. The fusel oil, which is a by-product of ethanol distillation molasses, is receiving a lot of interest.

Gasoline cars produce more carbonaceous particulate matter than modern filter-equipped diesel cars

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Carbonaceous particulate matter (PM), comprising black carbon (BC), primary organic aerosol (POA) and secondary organic aerosol (SOA, from atmospheric aging of precursors), is a highly toxic vehicle exhaust component.

Who Are the Farmers Participating in a Carbon Sequestration Program? Results of a Discrete Choice Experiment in Germany

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural soils offer great potential for carbon sequestration through humus formation. One way to motivate farmers to build up humus is through humus programs. These are still at an early stage of development, poorly explored, and the number of participating farmers is low. Our aim is to explain the heterogeneity of farmers' willingness to

The Effect of Leaded Gasoline on Elderly Mortality: Evidence from Regulatory Exemptions

open access: yesAmerican Economic Journal: Economic Policy, 2019
Leaded gasoline is still used globally for aviation and automotive racing. Exploiting regulatory exemptions and a novel quasi-experiment, we find that leaded gasoline use in racing increases ambient lead, elevated blood lead rates, and elderly mortality.

Hierarchical Complementary Enhanced Autoencoder Integrating Spatio‐Temporal Interaction Feature for Soft Sensor

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To address the issues of neglecting the spatiotemporal correlations among process variables, low‐level features are vulnerable to noise interference, and the gradual loss of key information layer by layer during deep network training in traditional stacked autoencoder‐based soft‐sensor models, this paper proposes a hierarchical complementary ...

Flow of Elastoviscous Nanofluid Through an Elongating Surface With Dissipative Heat: A Confluent Hypergeometric Solution

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thermal energy transport likely through polymer extrusion, cooling of metallic plates, and chemical processing equipment relating to the flow of viscoelastic nanofluid has a greater role in engineering because of its elastic characteristics.
