With the gradual reduction of emissions from building products, emissions from human occupants become more dominant indoors. The impact of human emissions on indoor air quality is inadequately understood. The aim of the Indoor Chemical Human Emissions and ...
The great success of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and its successor Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) has accelerated the development of global high-resolution satellite-based precipitation products (SPP). However, the quantitative a ...
We investigate the collective dynamics of self-propelled droplets, confined in a one-dimensional microfluidic channel. On the one hand, neighboring droplets align and form large trains of droplets moving in the same direction. On the other hand, the drople ...
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) and ammonia (NH3) from anthropogenic and biogenic emissions are central contributors to particulate matter (PM) concentrations worldwide. The response of PM to changes in the emissions of both compounds is typically studied on a case- ...
Automated field sampling of streamwater or precipitation for subsequent analysis of stable water isotopes (H-2 and O-18) is often conducted with off-the-shelf automated samplers. However, when water samples are stored in the field for days and weeks in ope ...
The present paper focuses on the simulation of the high-velocity impact of a projectile impacting on a water-jet, causing the onset, development and collapse of cavitation. The simulation of the fluid motion is carried out using an explicit, compressible, ...
Modern silicon-based detectors for high-energy physics operate in an experimental environment with sub-zero temperatures. At those temperatures, even low traces of humidity will produce vapor condensation with damages to the detectors. Monitoring relative ...
The paper presents the results of an experimental research devoted to investigate the response to suction variations of a scaly clay in compacted and reconstituted conditions. Different experimental techniques (axis translation, vapour equilibrium, dew poi ...
Natural slicks are manifested by changing reflective properties of water surfaces through inhibition of wave-growth and damping short gravity-capillary waves. Such influence on near-surface hydrodynamics can in turn affects the air-water exchange of moment ...
Magmatic dikes are a naturally occurring type of fluid-driven fractures (Rivalta et al. 2015) propagating in the lithosphere due to buoyant forces emerging from the density difference between the host material and the injected fluid (more precisely the dif ...
