Effect of Drying Method on Selected Physical and Functional Properties of Powdered Black Soldier Fly Larvae by Radosław Bogusz, Małgorzata Nowacka, Ewa Gondek, Murat Delman, Karolina Szulc

“…This research aimed to assay the impact of convective drying (CD) or infrared–convective (IR–CD) drying methods on the physical and techno-functional properties, FTIR spectra, and mathematical modeling of adsorption kinetics of black soldier fly larvae powders. By using convective drying, insect powder exhibited higher water content and water activity but lower hygroscopicity than powder dried with the infrared–convective method. …”

Soft Computing Solutions for Reducing the Carbon Footprint of Fly Ash Based Concrete. Advances in Civil Engineering by Awoyera, Paul O., Adetola, Joshua, Nayeemuddin, Mohammed, Mewada, Hiren, George Fadugba, Olaolu

“…The construction industry significantly contributes to environmental degradation,with many structures exhibiting high carbon footprints throughout their construction processes and lifespans.Activities such as cement hydration and other commoncon-struction practices substantially influence environmental conditions overtime,necessitating a critical evaluation of material and design choices.This study reported the environmental impact of fly ash(FA),which is largely used to enhance concrete strength.A prediction of two end point indicators,that is,global warming potential(GWP)and CO2 emission using soft computing methods are presented,which are particularly effective for handling complex,non linear relationships in environmental data.To achieve this, two machine learning approaches,the random forest(RF)and decision tree(DT)models,are employed to assess the environ- mental impact of structural materials and designs.Two data sets were obtained from reputable databases,including ResearchGate, Science Direct, Semantic Scholar,and Mendeley Data.The models are trained to explore the potential for optimizing structural designs and material selection stominimize environmental impacts.Feature importance is analyzed using Shapley values,providing insights into the most influential factors affecting GWP and CO2 emission Model performance is evaluated using R2 and root mean square error(RMSE) metrics. …”

Wake development behind paired wings with tip and root trailing vortices: consequences for animal flight force estimates. by Jan T Horstmann, Per Henningsson, Adrian L R Thomas, Richard J Bomphrey

“…Recent experiments on flapping flight in animals have shown that a variety of unrelated species shed a wake behind left and right wings consisting of both tip and root vortices. Here we present an investigation using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) of the behaviour and interaction of trailing vortices shed by paired, fixed wings that simplify and mimic the wake of a flying animal with a non-lifting body. …”
