On the Heat Loss Coefficient of Plastic Greenhouse
Journal of Agricultural Meteorology, 1970 The primary purpose of this study was to establish a heat loss coefficient (k) whereby calculations of heat requirements could be made for greenhouses.The formula calculating heat requirements for greenhouses is described as follows:Q=kAw(Ti-T0), where, Q=heat required, Kcal/hr, k=heat loss coefficient, Kcal/m2hr°C, Aw=exposed surface area, m2, Ti ...

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in
