Lauric acid (LA) and myristic (MA) were used to prepare a binary eutectic mixture. The expanded graphite (EG) was as the carrier, lauric–myristic acid/expanded (LA–MA/EG) composite phase change material prepared by physical adsorption method. microstructure, chemical structure, thermal properties of LA–MA/EG characterized scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential calorimeter (DSC), Fouri...

Research has shown that road lane width impacts on driver behaviour. This literature review provides guidelines to assist in the design, construction and retrofitting of urban roads to accommodate road users' safety requirements. It focuses on the impacts of lane widths on cyclists and motor vehicle safety behaviour. The literature review commenced with a search of library databases. Peer revie...

children need to learn to use the roads safety. road safety is essential for children’s freedom, development and exercise. when walking near a road it is a good idea to: 1. hold your child's hand. 2. don't let them run ahead. 3. look out for and encourage your child to be aware of hidden entrances or driveways crossing the pavement. 4. put reins on a younger child if they're not ...

The lamina cribrosa likely plays an important role in retinal ganglion cell axon injury in glaucoma. We sought to (1) better understand optic nerve head (ONH) structure and anterior lamina cribrosa surface (ALCS) microarchitecture between fellow eyes of living, normal non-human primates and (2) characterize the time-course of in vivo structural changes in the ONH, ALCS microarchitecture, and re...

In solving the engineering problems in practice of different specialties, design roads and roads, structures, determining physiographic conditions same regional areas: basin area (F), height (Z), average square difference (s), slope (J), parameters such as length main channel (L), width maximum water flow (V) its depth (h), that is determination calculated values morphological indicators, perfo...

This study focused on the structure and the platform of the road space of historic districts. We analyzed the road networks of 16 historic districts in Japan from the perspectives of circularity, accessibility and indirection based on graph theory. By calculating and comparing the indexes of each road network (NW1 and NW2) forms, we quantitatively describe the effects of the main prefectural ro...
