High-strain ionomeric–ionic liquid electroactive actuators
Published 2006“…Results demonstrate that the surface-to-volume ratio of the metal particulate is critical to increasing the capacitance of the transducer. Increased conductivity of the metal particulates produces improved response at higher frequencies (>10 Hz), but this effect is small compared to the increase in strain produced by maximizing the capacitance. …”

A Multidecadal Assessment of Drought Intensification in the Middle East and North Africa: The Role of Global Warming and Rainfall Deficit
Published 2025“…Spatially, the SPEI highlighted significant drought intensification in temperate and cold desert (CWb, BWk) zones across the region, primarily driven by increasing air temperatures. On the other hand, SPI tended to capture well the mild and moderate drought events, while it underestimated the severity of the most anomalous dry events (i.e., severe, extreme, and very extreme). …”
