The role of attractive forces in viscous liquids [PDF]
We present evidence from computer simulation that the slowdown of relaxation of a standard Lennard-Jones glass-forming liquid and that of its reduction to a model with truncated pair potentials without attractive tails is quantitatively and qualitatively

Energy Efficiency Assessment of Electric Bicycles
Electric-assist bicycles have recently become very popular. However, riding them generally requires significantly more energy, generated simultaneously by the motor and the rider, compared to much lighter traditional bicycles.

Exploring Tractive Performance of Planetary Rover's Rigid Wheels on Mixed Terrain
Based on insufficient studies of the tractive performance of a planetary rover's rigid wheels in soft soil and hard mixed soil terrains, a method for studying the tractive performance is presented.

Casimir Effect, Achucarro-Ortiz Black Hole and the Cosmological Constant [PDF]
We treat the two-dimensional Achucarro-Ortiz black hole (also known as (1+1) dilatonic black hole) as a Casimir-type system. The stress tensor of a massless scalar field satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions on two one-dimensional "walls" ("Dirichlet ...

Retardation turns the van der Waals attraction into Casimir repulsion already at 3 nm [PDF]
Casimir forces between surfaces immersed in bromobenzene have recently been measured by Munday et al. Attractive Casimir forces were found between gold surfaces. The forces were repulsive between gold and silica surfaces.

ABSTRACT Background Gastrointestinal graft‐versus‐host disease (GI GVHD) following hematopoietic stem cell transplant is typically managed with medical therapy, but surgery and angioembolization may be warranted in selected cases with life‐threatening complications.

Investigative study on temperature conditions of continuous run modes of hoisting machine electric drive [PDF]
The paper presents the findings of the investigative study on the features of electric drives in the continuous run modes (which correspond to the run modes of belt conveyor drives) using frequency converters and operating with the natural mechanical ...

Comparative airship economics [PDF]
As future LTA vehicles will be doomed right from the start if they do not fill a real need, some differences in transport philosophy between design engineers on the one hand and freight forwarders on the other are discussed.

Transport energy consumption in mountainous roads. A comparative case study for internal combustion engines and electric vehicles in Andorra [PDF]
This paper analyses transport energy consumption of conventional and electric vehicles in mountainous roads. A standard round trip in Andorra has been modelled in order to characterise vehicle dynamics in hilly regions.
