Radiative impact of mixing state of black carbon aerosol in Asian outflow [PDF]
, 2008 The radiative impact of the mixing state of black carbon (BC) aerosol is investigated in Asian outflow. The mixing state and size distribution of BC aerosol were measured with a ground-based single-particle soot photometer at a remote island (Fukue) in ...

New representation of water activity based on a single solute specific constant to parameterize the hygroscopic growth of aerosols in atmospheric models [PDF]
, 2012 Water activity is a key factor in aerosol thermodynamics and hygroscopic growth. We introduce a new representation of water activity (<i>a</i><sub>w</sub>), which is empirically related to the solute molality (μ<sub>s&

Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As refineries process increasingly inferior crude oils, ammonium salt corrosion has intensified. Accurate prediction of ammonium salt crystallization temperatures and their influencing factors is therefore crucial for safe and stable operations.
