Detection of Hydrophobicity Grade of Composite Insulators Based on MDC‐YOLO Algorithm

Energy Science & Engineering
In the field of power equipment inspection, the aging condition of composite insulators is often determined by the detection of water repellency. However, the existing detection methods are difficult to effectively extract the water repellency level ...

Biochar as a Soil Amendment: A Review of the Environmental Implications [PDF]

, 2008
The term 'biochar' refers to black carbon formed by the pyrolysis of biomass i.e. by heating biomass in an oxygen-free or low oxygen environment such that it does not (or only partially) combusts.

Hydrophobicity of periodic structure with taper angle under pressure impact

Scientific Reports
Biomimetic periodic structures have garnered attention due to their excellent water repellency. The normal-taper angle, which is aspects of the cross-sectional structure, is important factor in achieving water repellency and pressure resistance; however,

Flexible Thin‐Film Heater Composed of Laser‐Induced Graphene and Poly(D, L‐Lactic Acid) with Electro‐ and Photo‐Thermal Properties toward Cancer Thermotherapy

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a thin‐film‐type heat‐generating device that uses laser induced graphene (LIG) on a poly(D, L‐lactic) acid film, which realizes both resistance heating by direct current application and photothermal conversion heating by near‐infrared light irradiation.

Effects of Endophyte-infected (Epichloë coenophaila) Tall Fescue Residues on Water Repellency and Structural Stability of Texturally-Different Soils

علوم آب و خاک, 2017
Soil water repellency can affect several soil properties such as aggregate stability. Soil texture and organic matter are two main internal factors responsible for the variability of soil water repellency.
