Pressure-Driven Phase Separation Based on Modified Porous Mesh for Liquid Management in Microgravity [PDF]

, 2022
Surface tension becomes the main force influencing the gas–liquid interface in microgravity environment. The instability of the gas–liquid distribution is a menace for spacecraft missions.

Periodic CO₂ Injection for Improved Storage Capacity and Pressure Management under Intermittent CO₂ Supply

Energies, 2022
Storing CO2 in geological formations is an important component of reducing greenhouse gases emissions. The Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) industry is now in its establishing phase, and if successful, massive storage volumes would be needed.

Development of a Modularized Seating System to Actively Manage Interface Pressure

Sensors, 2014
Pressure ulcers can be a fatal complication. Many immobile wheelchair users face this threat. Current passive and active cushions do reduce the incidence of pressure ulcers and they have different merits.

Lanthanum Diffusion in Fluorapatite at 400 °C, 50 MPa and 4–16 wt %

Separations, 2021
Apatite is an important carrier of rare earth elements (REEs) and phosphorite is a potential REEs resource. However, the influence of hydrothermal fluids on the migration and enrichment of REE in apatite remains controversial.

Community based trial of home blood pressure monitoring with nurse-led telephone support in patients with stroke or transient ischaemic attack recently discharged from hospital. [PDF]

, 2008
BACKGROUND: High blood pressure in patients with stroke increases the risk of recurrence but management in the community is often inadequate. Home blood pressure monitoring may increase patients' involvement in their care, increase compliance, and reduce

Pressure-dependent EPANET extension [PDF]

, 2010
In water distribution systems (WDSs), the available flow at a demand node is dependent on the pressure at that node. When a network is lacking in pressure, not all consumer demands will be met in full. In this context, the assumption that all demands are

Advanced Approaches in Optimizing Water Distribution Networks: A Detailed Analysis on Minimizing Leakage and Enhancing Resilience [PDF]

Journal of Hydraulic Structures
The high costs of constructing water supply networks have shifted design priorities towards minimizing leakage and enhancing reliability. This study applies nonlinear programming (NLP) to optimize a water distribution network (WDN), focusing on leakage ...
