Combustion and Emission Characteristics of Methanol–Diesel Dual Fuel Engine at Different Altitudes by Zhongcheng Wang, Zhu Jie, Xiaoyu Liu

“…However, when the intake temperature rises from 400 K to 500 K, a decrease in the thermal efficiency is observed. Particularly, at an injection timing of −30 °CA, both the peak cylinder pressure and peak cylinder temperature are higher, the ignition occurs earlier, the combustion process shifts forward, and the combustion efficiency and indicated thermal efficiency are at higher levels. …”

Induction Heating and Healing Behaviors of Asphalt Concretes Doped with Different Conductive Additives by Hechuan Li, Jianying Yu, Quantao Liu, Yuanyuan Li, Yaqi Wu, Haiqin Xu

“…In order to not affect the traffic, the rest period of asphalt pavement is very short and uncontrollable; so, it is necessary to obtain enough high temperature in a limited time to achieve higher healing efficiency of asphalt concrete. The purpose of this paper is to study the induction heating efficiency and healing behaviors of asphalt concretes doped with different conductive additives. …”

Evaluation of protection benefit of sand barrier fence with different heights on desert highway. by Ming Zhang, Qi Li, Jiayin Hou, Shuai Ji

“…When the height is 2.5m and above, the windbreak efficiency is greater than 90%, and the windbreak effect is significantly improved. (2) The change of sand barrier height has a significant effect on the windbreak efficiency between the second and third sand barriers. (3) Among the three sand-blocking fences, when the height of the sand-blocking fence is 2.5m, the thickness of the sand is 50.51% and 58.33% higher than that of the 2m high sand-blocking fence, and the sand-blocking effect is the most significant. …”

Age differences in the variability and distribution of sleep spindle and rapid eye movement densities. by Kevin R Peters, Laura B Ray, Stuart Fogel, Valerie Smith, Carlyle T Smith

“…These results suggest that spindle density is more affected by age than REM density. Although age differences were observed in the degree of absolute variability (older adults had significantly larger variances than young adults for sleep efficiency and time spent awake after sleep onset), a similar pattern was also observed within the two age groups: the four sleep measures with the lowest degrees of relative variability were the same and included time spent in REM and Stage 2 sleep, total sleep time, and sleep efficiency. …”
