Oil spill treatment strategy modelling for Georges Bank. [PDF]

, 1979
A fates model has been developed which tracks both the surface and subsurface oil. The approach used to spread, drift, and evaporate the surface slick is similar to that in most other oil spill models.

Design and Performance of a High‐Efficiency Inhibitor: Synergistic Effect of Modified Chitosan and Boron Nitride Nanosheets on Steel Protection

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal corrosion causes significant economic losses and safety hazards, underscoring the urgent need for effective, environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitors. In this study, an organic–inorganic composite inhibitor, chitosan–glucose–BN (CS–GL–BN) was developed to protect Q235 mild steel in a 3.5‐wt% NaCl solution.

Oysters as biomonitors of the apex barge oil spill

, 2005
pg. 6075The collision of the Greek tanker ship Shinoussa resulted in a spill of an estimated 692,000 gallons of catalytic feed stock oil into Galveston Bay on July 28, 1990. Oysters were collected from Galveston Bay Todds Dump (GRID) 235 days previous to

Leveraging Metamaterial‐Inspired Wireless Resonator for Reliable Quantitative MRI at 1.5T: Linearity, Bias, and Repeatability Assessment

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This study designed a nonlinear‐response metamaterial‐inspired wireless resonator (MWR) and systematically evaluated the feasibility of using MWR for quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (qMRI), including T1/T2 mapping, apparent diffusion coefficient, and proton density fat fraction.

Performance of Oil Spill Identification in Multiple Scenarios Using Quad-, Compact-, and Dual-Polarization Modes

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Oil spills, whether in open water or near shorelines, cause serious environmental problems. Moreover, polarimetric synthetic-aperture radar provides abundant oil spill information with all-weather, day–night detection capability, but its use is limited ...

Physical Properties of Transition Metal Hydride Superconductors Mg2TmH6 (Tm = Rh, Pd, Ir, Pt) by First‐Principles Calculations

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
The electronic band structure determines all the charge transport properties of crystalline solids. It also controls the optical response of the material. Bonding characters are strongly influenced by the band structure. The band structures of Mg2TmH6 (Tm = Rh, Pd, Ir, Pt) compounds shown above confirm their metallic nature.

Dissecting the dissection laboratory: Elements for designing a human anatomy laboratory

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The human anatomy dissection laboratory is a critical component of anatomical and medical education. Development, maintenance, and stocking of these laboratory spaces have unique demands, with all of the challenges in running a laboratory with Biosafety Laboratory Level 2 (BSL‐2) classification, housing a large volume of tissues saturated with
