Asymmetric effects of oil price shocks on the demand for money in Algeria by Amirouche, Chelghoum

“…This paper investigates the symmetric and asymmetric effects of real oil prices on real money demand in Algeria over the period 1999:Q1–2020:Q1. Using a linear autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL), and a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag model (NARDL), we find no evidence of a long-term relationship among the variables. …”

Tandem osmotic engine based on hydrogel particles with antipolyelectrolyte and polyelectrolyte effect fuelled by both salinity gradient modes by Padmanabhan, Anjali Cheeramthodi

“…The swelling of hydrogel with a polyelectrolyte effect and shrinking of hydrogel particles possessing an antipoly-electrolyte effect in desalinated water, and subsequent shrinking of hydrogel with polyelectrolyte and swelling of hydrogel antipolyelectrolyte effect in saline water, generate power in both increasing and decreasing salinity modes. To investigate the energy recovery, we scrutinized osmotic engine assemblies by a setup arrangement of pistons with hydrogel particles, with polyelectrolyte and antipolyelectrolyte effects, in tandem. …”
