Materials, Designs and Standards Used in Ski-Boots for

This review article reports the recent advances in the study, design and production of ski-boots for alpine skiing. An overview of the different designs and the materials used in ski-boot construction is provided giving particular emphasis to the effect of these parameters on the final performances and on the prevention of injuries. The use of specific materials for ski-boots dedicated to diffe...

Temperature and Relative Humidity Data in Bunker-Stored Rice

A storage technique in which grain is piled on large, flat surfaces and covered with an airtight liner is described. A synopsis of the concept and development of this type of grain storage is given as are the design and construction details of systems currently being used in Arkansas. Temperature and relative humidity data collected while monitoring a field-scale unit equipped with an aeration ...

Influenza Virus Transmission Is Dependent on Relative Humidity and Temperature

Using the guinea pig as a model host, we show that aerosol spread of influenza virus is dependent upon both ambient relative humidity and temperature. Twenty experiments performed at relative humidities from 20% to 80% and 5 degrees C, 20 degrees C, or 30 degrees C indicated that both cold and dry conditions favor transmission. The relationship between transmission via aerosols and relative hum...
