Mars Regolith Simulant Ameliorated by Compost as in situ Cultivation Substrate Improves Lettuce Growth and Nutritional Aspects

Plants, 2020
Heavy payloads in future shuttle journeys to Mars present limiting factors, making self-sustenance essential for future colonies. Therefore, in situ resources utilization (ISRU) is the path to successful and feasible space voyages.

Exomoon Simulations [PDF]

Earth, Moon, and Planets, 2009
We introduce and describe our newly developed code that simulates light curves and radial velocity curves for arbitrary transiting exoplanets with a satellite. The most important feature of the program is the calculation of radial velocity curves and the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect in such systems. We discuss the possibilities for detecting the exomoons

Investigation of bisphenol a diglycidyl ether, bisphenol f diglycidyl ether and their hydroxy and chlorohydroxy derivatives stability in water-based food simulants

Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2004
Varnishes used as the inner coatings of food cans are often based on epoxy resins or vinylic organosols. The epoxy resins can be produced from bisphenol A (BPA) and bisphenol F (BPF) and they also contain bisphenol A diglycidyl ether (BADGE) of bisphenol

Selling simulation and simulation results [PDF]

Proceedings of the 24th conference on Winter simulation - WSC '92, 1992
Selling simulation as a valid analysis tool is the first, and maybe the most important, step in the simulation process. Once the decision has been made to use simulation, the analyst must then be concerned with selling the ultimate results produced by the simulation.
