Lubricant additives, based on inorganic nanoparticles coated with organic outer Knife Rack layer, can reduce wear and increase load-carrying capacity of base oil remarkably, indicating the great potential of hybrid nanoparticles as anti-wear and extreme-pressure additives with excellent levels of performance.The organic part in the hybrid materials
Chunking language has been proposed to be vital for comprehension enabling the extraction Modems of meaning from a continuous stream of speech.However, neurocognitive mechanisms of chunking are poorly understood.The present study investigated neural correlates of chunk boundaries intuitively identified by listeners in natural speech drawn from ling
Accurately estimating evapotranspiration (ET) at large spatial scales is essential to our understanding of land-atmosphere coupling and the surface balance of water and energy.Comparisons between remote sensing-based ET models are difficult due to Modems diversity in model formulation, parametrization and data requirements.The constituent component
Filamentary molecular clouds are recognized as primary sites for the formation of stars.Specifically, regions characterized by the overlapping point of multiple filaments, known as hub regions, are often associated with active star formation.However, the formation mechanism of this hub structure is not well understood.Therefore, to understand the f
Hardy Cross originally proposed a method for analysis of flow in networks of conduits or conductors in 1936.His method was the first really useful engineering method in the field of pipe network calculation.Only electrical analogs of hydraulic networks were used before the Hardy Cross method.A problem with flow resistance versus electrical resistan
