Abstract In current research on deflector jet servo valves, the receiver pressure estimated using traditional two-dimensional simulation and theoretical calculation is always lower than the experimental data; therefore, ...

"We investigate the influence of an anonymous leader on a collective of self-propelled robots using Kilobot experiments and numerical simulations. {Each robot possesses a binary internal state that determines the directi...

Current shampoo bottles are oversized, using more plastic than necessary. In order to promote plastic minimization, the aim of this work is to determine how much it is possible to reduce the thickness of current shampoo ...

Recently, in addition to exploring the application of new saturable absorber devices in fiber lasers, soliton dynamics has also become a focus of current research. In this article, we report an ultrashort pulse fiber las...

Abstract Objective Breaking bad news (BBN) is particularly difficult in perinatology. Previous research has shown that BBN skills can be learned and improved when taught and practiced. This project evaluated whether a ...

Abstract Raising the rotational speed of an axial piston pump is useful for improving its power density; however, the churning losses of the piston increase significantly with increasing speed, and this reduces the perfo...

Abstract With the outward expansion of university campuses toward suburban areas, the modern campus has evolved into an increasingly independent social space, providing an organizational setting in which users’ daily a...

This study was conducted to potentially optimize the sustainable culture of Mozambique tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) in a periphyton-based aquaculture system with supplemental feeding to aqua dams using stochastic si...

This work presents the characterization and contribution of neutron and gamma components to the absorbed dose in a zero power nuclear reactor. A dosimetric method based on Fricke gel was implemented to evaluate the separ...

Abstract The processed surface contour shape is extracted with the finite element simulation software. The difference value of contour shape change is used as the parameters of balancing surface roughness to construct fi...

Aim The aim of this pilot project study was to explore nursing students’ learning experience of delivering culturally responsive care and empathetic communication skills while working with an adolescent simulated patie...

The first process which crude oil undergoes in a refinery is the atmospheric distillation o topping, whose aim is to fraction the crude oil in their products: naphtha, kerosene, gas oil, etc. The stages involved are: pro...

Abstract The safety of trains, a highly efficient mode of transportation, has attracted significant attention. In the vehicle structure design of a train, the evaluation of the passenger evacuation time is necessary. The...

Social interaction capability (SIC) is essential for autonomous vehicles (AVs) when they interact with surrounding vehicles, as the ability of understanding and reacting to the behaviors of other road users can significa...

This Campbell systematic review examines the effects of input subsidies on agricultural productivity, beneficiary incomes and welfare, consumer welfare and wider economic growth. The review summarizes evidence from 15 ex...

"This article reports the ongoing work on an environment for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and software-in-the-loop (SIL) tests of CubeSats and the benefits gained from using such an environment for low-cost satellite devel...

Abstract Fine particulate matter produced during the rapid industrialization over the past decades can cause significant harm to human health. Twin-fluid atomization technology is an effective means of controlling fine p...

A refinement method is proposed to solve the difference in the macroscopic elasticity and the interpenetration in interface area between different particle-size areas in the DEM. In simulations of 3D DEM large-scale prob...

Abstract One of the most recently developed wireless technologies is Radio Tomographic Imaging (RTI). RTI employs a wireless sensor network that produces images of the change in the electromagnetic field of a monitored a...

Abstract The crystal plasticity finite element method (CPFEM) is widely used to explore the microscopic mechanical behavior of materials and understand the deformation mechanism at the grain-level. However, few CPFEM sim...

The scenarios of Ubiquitous Computing are becoming reality in the last years. The evolution in the technologies of wireless networks is making possible the existence of these ubiquitous scenarios. Mobile ad hoc networks...

The purpose of this paper is reporting an experience of designing digital learning objects for university teaching. The tasks consisted of participating in an electronic forum and developing teaching projects using simu...
