The morphological characteristics of aggregate include outline shape, angularity, and surface texture, which determine the mutual extrusion friction between aggregates, significantly affect performance asphalt pavement. At present, research on coarse is mainly focused indoor visual identification technology (AIMS, XCT, etc.), in applicability proposed shape characterization index weak, these in...

I defend the thesis that Composition Entails Identity (CEI): is, a whole is identical to all of its parts, taken together. CEI seems be inconsistent, since it require parts possess incompatible number properties (for instance, being one thing and many things). show these are, in fact, compatible.

Editor’s key points † Several factors that influence intracranial pressure (ICP) also influence intraocular pressure (IOP). † Injections into the epidural space can cause cerebrospinal fluid shifts into the cranial space. † This has the potential to increase ICP and IOP. † The authors studied the effect of cervical epidural injections (14 ml) on IOP. Background. Cervical epidural injection (CEI...

Development of high-performing lithium-based batteries inevitably calls for a profound understanding and elucidation the reactivity at electrode–liquid electrolyte interface its impact on overall performance safety. The formation, composition, properties, mechanisms cathode interphase (CEI) formation function are still to large extent unknown most battery materials, whereas same is well conside...

Introduction Energy conservation and emission reduction, as a major policy of China for long time, has been put on the key strategic position. Based panel data 30 provinces, cities districts in from 2006 to 2019. Methods This paper uses fixed effect model spatial Durbin explore mechanism artificial intelligence (AI) regional carbon intensity (CEI). Results The results show that: (1) there is si...

The existing index systems on sustainable evaluation are mostly based on a multi index comprehensive evaluation method. The main disadvantage of this approach is that the selection and assignment of evaluation indexes are greatly influenced by subjective factors, which can result in poor comparability of results. By contrast, the Footprint Family (including ecological footprint, carbon footprin...

Among the ways to reduce carbon emission intensity (CEI), increasing of research and development (RDI) plays an important role in process. In China, how RDI reduces CEI has attracted widespread attention. Most scholars have not considered spatial effects study correlation between CEI; therefore, this paper uses panel data 30 Chinese provinces from 2007–2019 as a sample explore on using measures...

Direct borohydride fuel cells (DBFCs) operate with liquid H2O2 and a high-energy-density NaBH4 solution. A facile, direct synthesis method using non-noble nickel catalyst for the DBFC anode is shown. The complex reaction an anion-exchange ionomer (AEI) cation-exchange (CEI) evaluated in half-cell single-cell configurations. type produces high or low local pH at active site of configuration, gen...

Synthesis, magnetic properties, NMR spectroscopy, and crystallographic details of an ethylene bridged hexamethylindenyl (EBI*) cerium iodide complex [(EBI*)CeI(THF)] are reported.
