This paper discusses how a qualitative understanding on the physics of failure can lead to a theoretical derivation of effective features that are useful for condition monitoring of wet friction clutches. The physical relationships between the features and the mean coefficient of friction (COF) which can be seen as the representation of the degradation level of a wet friction clutch are theoret...

BACKGROUND Atropine sulfate is an anticholinergic agent for treatment of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis and is orally administrated as a triturate with lactose hydrate. Because of the low safety margin of atropine sulfate, triturate uniformity is a key safety factor. In this study, we assessed the uniformity of atropine sulfate in 1000-fold triturates prepared by wet mixing and dry mixing method...

The RadFETs discussed in this paper are based on our [2] dual dielectric design of SiN over SO, The RadFETs were fabricated at the Micrel Corp. in San Jose, CA. to specifications provided by the authors. Micrel was able to use their standard p-MOSFET process with the addition of a Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD) SIN deposition after gate oxidation to fabricate the RadFETs. Micrel...

This research relates to the cellulosic fibres of treated deinked Mixed Office Waste (MOW) paper and is directed particularity to a method for improving the wet strength of recycled paper. The effect of chemical treatment of fibre was investigated. Fibres were treated with 6 and 10% Succinic Acid (SA), with 3% and 5% catalysts (based on the total weight of fibres). The catalysts used for this r...

Wet and dry anaerobic fermentation processes are operated for biogas production from organic matter, resulting in wet and dry digestates as by-products, respectively. The application of these digestates to soil as fertilizer has increased in recent years. Therefore, we herein compared the effects of applying wet digestates (pH 8.2, C/N ratio 4.5), dry digestates (pH 8.8, C/N ratio 23.4), and a ...
