Realistic prediction of concrete shrinkage and creep requires the calculation of the distributions of relative humidity at various times. Although the distributions of the relative humidity can be computed by numerical methods from the differential equation for diffusion, simple prediction formulas can facilitate structural analysis. The purpose of this paper is to present a simple formula for ...

a humidity sensor thin film based on nanoporous pbwo4-wo3 composites has been prepared by spin coating technique with different weight ratio of pbwo4 (pb) and wo3 (wo) (pwwo-01, pwwo-82, pwwo-64, pwwo-46, pwwo-28, pwwo-01) and their humidity sensing properties have also been investigated at different relative humidity (rh) in the range of 5% - 98% at room temperature with dc resistance. it is f...

air conditioning is widely applied for the improvement of standard of living in human life. this present investigation focused on the prediction of indoor air quality characteristics of air conditioned car using fuzzy logic algorithm. the conditioned space was selected and the experiments were planned as per design of experiments to study the effect of human load, fresh air supply and air veloc...

saffron is an important spice values for its color, aroma and flavor in the food industry. a significant proportion of saffron compound is lost during processing and storage because of its volatility and sensitivity to oxidation. thepresent research microencapsulated saffron color compounds (crocin) by freeze drying. the freeze-dried aqueous saffron effective compound extract was first prepared...
