Light-Duty Vehicle Brake Emission Factors

open access: yesAtmosphere
Particulate Matter (PM) air pollution has been linked to major adverse health effects. Road transport still contributes significantly to ambient PM concentrations, but mainly due to the non-exhaust emissions from vehicles.

Sensitivity of the Single Particle Soot Photometer to different black carbon types [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2012
Black carbon (BC) is now mainly of anthropogenic origin. It is the dominant light absorbing component of atmospheric aerosols, playing an important role in the earth's radiative balance and therefore relevant to climate change studies. In addition, BC is

Variations in Levels and Sources of Atmospheric VOCs during the Continuous Haze and Non-Haze Episodes in the Urban Area of Beijing: A Case Study in Spring of 2019

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
To better evaluate the variations in concentration characteristics and source contributions of atmospheric volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during continuous haze days and non-haze days, hourly observations of atmospheric VOCs were conducted using a ...

Effects of Titanate on Brake Wear Particle Emission Using a Brake Material Friction Test Dynamometer

open access: yesLubricants
We investigated the effect of lepidocrocite-type layered titanate, which is compounded in brake pads, to reduce brake particle emissions. The dust reduction effect of titanate was evaluated using a small-scale inertial brake material friction test ...

Analysis of Low Pressure Steam Turbine Diffuser and Exhaust Hood Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This thesis concerns the computational modelling of low pressure (LP) steam turbine exhaust hood flows. A test case for LP last stage blades (LSBs) with a full aerodynamic definition and an accompanying exhaust hood was developed which is representative ...

The exhaust energy utilization of a turbocompound engine combined with divided exhaust period

open access: yes, 2014
To decrease the influence of the increased exhaust pressure of a turbocompound engine, a new architecture is developed by combining the turbocompound engine with divided exhaust period (DEP).

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
