<strong>Abstract</strong><strong>&mdash;</strong> For the development of modern transport systems that meet the demanding goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, set in the Paris Agreement from the end of 2015, it is necessary to consider new technologies and new vehicle concepts. In addition to the contractually agreed and accelerating need to contribute to significant emissions reductions, such developments would help to replace fossil fuel energy that most countries around the world are heavily dependent from. Thus, fossil fuels cannot be part of a suitable transport system. The aim of

Abstract:
The present article deals with potential improvement of heat removal from the centre of a metal hydride tank towards the tank’s periphery while using passive heat transfer modules. Passive cooling elements are used in order to improve heat removal from the centre of a tank towards its peripheral parts. This increases the homogeneity of the thermal field in a tank’s cross-section, which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. Moreover, the use of such elements improves the kinetics of hydrogen absorption into an alloy, in particular by prolonging the time to an equilibrium temperature of the

Abstract This paper investigates the functions of the reflexive pronoun ko 53 to 21/to 21 in Tujia, a Tibeto-Burman (TB) language. Apart from being used as a verb object, the reflexive pronoun in Tujia can be used as an intensifier, indicating “self, non-other”, but it can also be used to create “passive” or “causative” meaning. It is argued that both meanings created by the reflexive pronoun can be accounted for under a decomposition approach.

External examination: the abdomen is significantly increased in volume and a tumor is felt in the lower part; accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity.

This paper constructs a two-party evolutionary game model based on the perspectives of sharing platforms and consumers, exploring the dynamics of platforms’ decisions to actively operate with blockchain technology and the evolution of consumer rights protection behaviors. It is discovered from analysis that certain variables exert considerable influence on the stability of the strategies of both parties. From the consumer perspective, the improvements in the performance of the blockchain technology significantly increase the consumers’ willingness to protect their rights: the consumers with in

Abstract The aim of this work is to study the effect of different forms of passive change in the shape of the flow on the intensity of heat transfer in the impact jet. In this work, a cycle of experiments was performed to investigate an axisymmetric jet flowing normally onto a heated surface. The jet was located both in natural conditions and during swirling of the flow (S = 0.4; 0.7; 1.0). It is shown that the intensity of heat transfer on a heated target in the case of a chevrons jet has little effect on the character, but significantly intensifies heat transfer.

abstract: Following the medical breakthroughs of Pasteur and Koch after 1880, the use of simians became pivotal to laboratory research to develop vaccines and cultivate microbes through the technique of serial passage. These innovations fueled research on multiple diseases and unleashed a demand for simians, which died easily in captivity. European and American colonial expansion facilitated a burgeoning market for laboratory animals that intensified hunting for live animals. This demand created novel opportunities for disease transfers and viral recombinations as simians of different species

In this criticism, as it should be, we emphasize the horror of Polyphemus character, his monstrous appearance and actions. However, references to the famous speech of the Cyclops, in verses 369 and 370, reveal more than that: they emphasize the comical nature of the passage.

In the Netherlands, a surveillance system was in place in which mink farmers could submit carcasses for postmortem evaluation and could contact a telephone helpdesk for veterinary advise.

A subsurface maximum near 100 m characterizes the geostrophic ITF, but Ekman flows drive a warm near-surface component as well.

A twelve-year hiatus in fishery-independent marine mammal surveys in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean (ETP), combined with a mandate to monitor dolphin stock status under international agreements and the need for reliable stock status information to set dolphin bycatch limits in the tuna purse-seine fishery, has renewed debate about how best to assess and monitor ETP dolphin stock status. The high cost of replicating previous ship-based surveys has intensified this debate.

Cement production is currently very energy-intensive, with the grinding process consuming the majority of the total energy in cement production. Therefore, there is a constant search for ways to reduce this amount of energy while maintaining the same grinding efficiency. The main goal of the article is to investigate the effect of grinding intensifiers, which should reduce the energy needed to grind raw materials. Potentially usable technologies in the field of mechanochemical activation are investigated, i.e., high-speed grinding through grinding in a laboratory planetary mill and disintegrat
