Sensing of Substrate Vibrations in the Adult Cicada Okanagana rimosa (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) [PDF]
, 2018 Detection of substrate vibrations is an evolutionarily old sensory modality and is important for predator detection as well as for intraspecific communication. In insects, substrate vibrations are detected mainly by scolopidial (chordotonal) sense organs

Computational modelling and experimental characterisation of heterogeneous materials [PDF]
, 2009 Heterogeneous materials can exhibit behaviour under load that cannot be described by classical continuum elasticity. Beams in bending can show a relative stiffening as the beam depth tends to zero, a size effect.

Performance Evaluation of a CO2 Refrigeration System Enhanced with a Dew Point Cooler
Energies, 2019 Dew point cooling (DPC) is a novel indirect evaporative cooling concept capable of delivering air temperatures approaching the dew point. Coupling this technology with CO2 refrigeration is well suited to minimising transcritical operation when the ...

A comprehensive review and analysis on CO2 heat pump water heaters
Energy Conversion and Management: X, 2022 In the context of the Montreal Protocol, CO2 is considered as an appropriate natural refrigerant with an Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of zero and a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of one. A CO2 heat pump water heater (HPWH) can provide hot water with a
