The paper reviews modern gravimeters of aviation gravimetric systems, their design and principle operation. Their advantages disadvantages, features functioning processing the received data are analyzed. It is shown that high-precision measurements gravitational acceleration (g) extremely relevant necessary for many fields science technology. main characteristics known given. has been establish...

AIMS To measure particulate matter (PM) exposure of people involved in domestic work (i.e. housework by a resident, not paid work) in urban and rural Nepal, with exposure to biomass smoke in the rural areas, and to examine the performance of photometric devices in collecting these data. This paper details the results of these measurements and derives calibration factors for two photometric devi...

In this study, the radial distribution and gravimetric storage capacities of hydrogen on coronene (C24H12) and its Si substituted forms, C24H12, C24-nSinH12 (n= 4-24), have been investigated at 298 K and 0.1 MPa (standard situation) using (N,V,T) Monte Carlo simulation by Lennard-Jones (LJ) 12-6 potential. The results show that the increase of number of silicon substitution doesn’t have any eff...

BACKGROUND Portable direct-reading instruments by light-scattering method are increasingly used in airborne fine particulate matter (PM2.5) monitoring. However, there are limited calibration studies on such instruments by applying the gravimetric method as reference method in field tests. METHODS An 8-month sampling was performed and 96 pairs of PM2.5 data by both the gravimetric method and t...

Background and objectives Centralized chemotherapy preparation units have established systematic strategies to avoid errors. Our work aimed to evaluate the accuracy of manual preparations associated with different control methods. Method A simulation study in an operational setting used phenylephrine and lidocaine as markers. Each operator prepared syringes that were controlled using a differen...

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and gravimetric methods were carried out to analyze water uptake of thin polyurethane films separately filled with either hydrophobic or hydrophilic nano-silica. Correspondingly the impedance spectra and gravimetric data were interpreted in terms of movement of water within the coating and/or to the coating/metal interface. Although the obtained results fr...

The piezoelectric biosensor have been widely used in ultra-small mass detection of biomolecular, based on PZT piezoelectric material can create a variety of compositions geometrically; it could widely develop a high-frequency resonator and measure the change of the slightest mass while improve the limited detection simultaneously. Therefore, the piezoelectric biosensor of this study was fabrica...

In this work we present an application of InSAR and gravimetric surveys for risk management related to land subsidence and surface ground faulting generation. A subsidence velocity map derived from the 2007–2011 ALOS SAR imagery and a sediment thicknesses map obtained from the inversion of gravimetric data were integrated with a surface fault map to produce a subsidence hazard zoning in the cit...

This paper presents and develops a novel methodology to determine thermodynamic parameters of binary gas co-adsorption equilibria at given total pressure, based exclusively on binary gravimetric measurements at this same total pressure, together with single component isotherms. By “Incremental Gravimetry”, we designate a procedure in which the adsorbent sample is submitted to increments of comp...
