Improving Concrete Durability by Using Optimized Aggregate Gradation and Reducing Cement Content by Chung, Hung-Wen

“…The main findings from this study are as follows: (1) The cementitious content of typical Florida pavement and structural concrete can be reduced by as much as 10 to 15% without loss in workability of the fresh concrete, and without decreasing the strength and durability of the hardened concrete. (2) Portlandlimestone cement (Type IL) can be used as a substitute for ordinary Portland cement (Type I/II). (3) The OAG technique can be used to efficiently reduce the cementitious content of the concrete mixes and to improve their performance."…”

The influence of aeration scheme and aeration rate on the permeate flux for wastewater treatment using membrane bioreactors: Experimental and artificial neural network modeling by Jawad, Jasir

“…The experimental data were used to develop an artificial neural network (ANN) model, which showed excellent agreement (R2 = 0.9963) with the data. The average normalized flux decreased as the MLSS concentration increased from 5 to 15 g/L and increased as the aeration rate increased from 0.5 to 1.5 LPM. …”

Thermally assisted efficient electrochemical lithium extraction from simulated seawater by Yanxi, Yu

“…The integrated thermally regenerative electrochemical cycle can harvest thermal energy in heated source solutions, enabling a low electrical energy consumption (11.3–16.0 Wh mol-1 lithium). Furthermore, the coupled thermal-driven membrane process in the system can also produce freshwater (13.2 kg m-2 h-1) as a byproduct. …”

Heart Rate Variability Analysis Reveals a Non-monotonic Relationship between Humanin Concentration and Cardiac Autonomic Regulation by Feng, Samuel

“…Sympathovagal balance was assessed in 124 healthy participants through heart rate variability (HRV) analysis and compared across changes in HN concentrations divided into quintiles, with values of HN ranging from 64.6 to 343.2 pg/mL. Significant differences included various frequency domain and nonlinear HRV parameters, particularly between first and fourth HN quintiles with p values < 0.001 for recurrence plot analysis (RPA), detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) a1 and Poincaré plot ratio SD1/SD2. …”
