Driving Behavior and Decision Mechanisms in Emergency Conditions

World Electric Vehicle Journal, 2022
In this article we used simulator experiments to explore the intelligent mechanisms of human decision-making. Three types of typical emergency scenarios were used in the experiment, in which Scenario 1 was used to analyze the driver’s choice to protect ...

Tacticity in chiral phononic crystals

Nature Communications, 2019
Here, the authors study the influence of tacticity on the dynamic behaviour of chiral structured periodic media comprising rotational inertia elements. This opens the way towards new mechanisms for wave control by exploiting spin-spin coupling mechanism.

Potential role of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as mediators of cardiovascular effects from combustion particles

Environmental Health, 2019
Air pollution is the most important environmental risk factor for disease and premature death, and exposure to combustion particles from vehicles is a major contributor.

Respirable stone particles differ in their ability to induce cytotoxicity and pro-inflammatory responses in cell models of the human airways

Particle and Fibre Toxicology, 2021
Background Respirable stone- and mineral particles may be a major constituent in occupational and ambient air pollution and represent a possible health hazard.

Bio-Inspired Aerodynamic Noise Control: A Bibliographic Review

Applied Sciences, 2019
It is well-known that many species of owl have the unique ability to fly silently, which can be attributed to their distinctive and special feather adaptations.

Sound pressure-dependent acoustic absorption by perforated rigid-frame porous materials

Acta Acustica
Porous materials are one of the most common classes of sound absorbers for acoustic treatments. However, thin layers of these classical materials are not efficient at absorbing low-frequency sound waves, which is a practical shortcoming.

Characterization of the aircraft bay/landing gear coupling noise at low subsonic speeds and its suppression using leading-edge chevron spoiler

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2019
When the aircraft opens the bay door to let the landing gear either drop or retract, the incoming flow will result in a significant amount of coupling noise from the bay and the landing gear.

Comparative study of surface integral methods in aeroacoustic prediction

Frontiers in Physics, 2023
Introduction: Surface integral methods based on the acoustic analogy and Kirchhoff formulation are widely employed in computational aeroacoustics. The computational accuracy is usually highly dependent on the selections of the acoustic prediction method ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative
