Indoor Navigation on Smartphones

, 2014
Today the main issue of absolute navigation system mainly consists of GNSS signal propagation problems in indoor areas and street canyons (also known as urban canyons). The existing solutions are unable to provide reliable location service in these areas thus a new approach is needed. Due to the rapid growth of smartphone market, wireless trans-mission

Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.

Passive thigh heating improves peak force production in younger adults and early isokinetic force production in younger and older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults often suffer from reduced physical capability relative to young adults, in part due to impaired muscle function. This study investigated the ergogenic effects of passive thigh heating on knee extensor torque production in healthy older versus younger adults.
