An Adiabatic-Expansion-Induced Perturbation Study on Gas–Aerosol Partitioning in Ambient Air—Formation of NH₄NO₃ and Microdroplet Nitrogen Fixation (2) by Yating Gao, Qinchu Fan, Yujiao Zhu, Hengqing Shen, Qi Yuan, Yang Gao, Huiwang Gao, Xiaohong Yao

“…Our results indicate the adiabatic-expansion-induced generation of NH₃ + HNO₃ at ultrafast formation rates, with campaign-dependent stable stoichiometric ratios of HNO₃ to NH₃, as well as highly variable occurrence frequencies and efficiencies. These findings suggest that microdroplet redox reactions are more likely responsible for the generation of NH₃ + HNO₃ than conventional atmospheric NH₃ chemistry. …”

Grid-connected PV inverter system control optimization using Grey Wolf optimized PID controller by Monika Gupta, P. M. Tiwari, R. K. Viral, Ashish Shrivastava, Basem Abu Zneid, Iryna Hunko

“…Conventional controllers such as P and PI are widely used in PV applications due to their simplicity, but they exhibit notable limitations in dynamic environments, including increased Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), slower transient response, and poor voltage regulation—particularly under variable irradiance conditions. The proposed GWO-PID method overcomes these limitations by leveraging the GWO algorithm’s global search capability to dynamically optimize the PID gains (Kp, Ki, Kd) based on a composite fitness function that minimizes Mean Squared Error (MSE) and THD. …”
