Overview of wound healing in a moist environment

The American Journal of Surgery, 1994
Maintaining a moist wound environment facilities the wound-healing process. The beneficial effects of a moist versus a dry wound environment include: prevention of tissue dehydration and cell death, accelerated angiogenesis, increased breakdown of dead tissue and fibrin, i.e., pericapillary fibrin cuffs, and potentiating the interaction of growth ...

Effects of Moist Environments on LED Module Reliability

IEEE Transactions on Device and Materials Reliability, 2010
Unless their reliability is no longer a concern, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) will be unable to be used for broader applications. One important factor in the operating environment of LEDs is moisture, which is always present if the packaging is not hermetically sealed.

The survival of Candida albicans in moist and dry environments

Journal of Hospital Infection, 1980
Abstract Environmental sampling in a nursery showed no candida apart from on bed-sheets of infected or colonized neonates, the inside surface of one cot and two wash basins. Candida albicans died rapidly when diluted broth cultures were allowed to dry on finger tips or cover-slips.

Short baroclinic waves of small amplitude in a moist environment

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1994
AbstractBaroclinic instability at short wavelengths is investigated using a primitive‐equation non‐hydrostatic two‐dimensional numerical model in which the vertical shear is uniform and in which moisture is present in the lower part of the troposphere.

Oxidation of spent UO2 fuel stored in moist environment

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2003
Spent fuel remnants, cut from BWR fuel rods were retrieved for microscopic investigations after 25 years of storage at ambient temperature. The storage atmosphere of the samples studied here was dry air for 10 years and a moist environment for the remaining 15 years.

Sulfoaluminate cement behaviours in carbon dioxide, warm and moist environments

Advances in Cement Research, 2014
Calcium sulfoaluminate cements are hydraulic binders characterised by fast setting and hardening, moderate shrinkage and high resistance to aggressive agents. Their manufacture requires less energy and generates less carbon dioxide than traditional Portland cement; however, their long-term durability, mechanical properties and dimensional stability in

Long-Term Deterioration of GFRP in Water and Moist Environment

Journal of Composites for Construction, 2002
This report examines the effects of water and moisture on the durability of pultruded glass-fiber-reinforced polymers (GFRP) with vinylester resin for applications in normal air conditions. Deterioration tests, including both immersion and atmosphere conditions at various temperatures, were conducted to investigate the deterioration characteristics of ...

Parametric instability of delaminated composite curved panels subjected to moist environment

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2020
Abstract The present study deals with numerical results of parametric instability of delaminated woven fibre Glass/Epoxy composite curved panels at elevated moisture contents. A composite shell model based on first order shear deformation theory with provision of mid plane delamination is considered for study.
