Modal performance degradation of naturally aged NBR
Damping is often an invisible requirement for a good mechanical design. To render the long-term service of viscoelastic dampers, it is essential for design engineers to estimate the degradation of the damping characteristics with age.

Efeito da pré-molhagem do agregado nas propriedades das argamassas com agregado reciclado deconcreto e agregado leve [PDF]
This paper examines the suitability of partially replacing natural aggregate, sand, (NA) with recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) or lightweight aggregate (LWA) in mortars, under the hypothesis that pre-wetting aggregates would produce improvement in ...

Surfactant‐Enhanced Electrospun Nanofiber Filters for Efficient Viral and Bacterial Inactivation
In this work, electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibrous filters functionalized with surfactants (CTAB, CPC, and SDS) were developed for air filtration applications. The PAN nanofiber mats enable efficient particulate matter capture while simultaneously providing antimicrobial and antiviral activity against bacteria (E. coli and S.

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Feasibility Study and Optimal Placement of Solar Power Plants Using Binary Genetic Algorithm
This study introduces an integrated optimization framework using a binary genetic algorithm (BGA) for optimal siting and sizing of two solar plants (865 and 739 kWp) in Karaj, Iran. The BGA outperformed conventional methods, achieving a 24.3% reduction in power losses and enhanced voltage stability.

Negative BOLD in the Lateral Geniculate Nucleus: Neuronal Implications and Cortico-Thalamic Feedback
Previous research has demonstrated a sustained negative BOLD response (NBR) that is negatively correlated with the spatio-temporal properties of a visual stimulus. Whilst it has been suggested that the NBR surrounding the positive BOLD response (PBR) may

Selection of elastomeric membranes for the removal of volatile organics from water [PDF]
A wide range of homogeneous elastomeric membranes has been prepared using dicumylperoxide as a general cross-linking agent. The membranes have been used for both equilibrium sorption measurements and steady-state pervaporation experiments to study ...
