The analysis of fuel injection processes in diesel engines showed the convergence physical parameters affecting mean diameter Sauter SMD (selected as a spray quality parameter) atomized droplets and acoustic signal emission originating from spring waves accompanying atomization process. In experimental studies, laser diffraction method was used to measure with Malvern Spraytec device. For recor...

Psychosocial factors, individual factors, workplace requirements, and workplace organizational factors have all been reported as being associated with the risk of musculoskeletal disorders [11]. Huang, Feuerstein, and Sauter [5] described the various concepts and models proposed to link occupational stress and work-related upper extremity disorders, as well as the difficulty in verifying the su...

This paper describes a collaborative theoretical and experimental research effort to investigate the performance of co-axial atomizers utilized in pharmaceutical tablet coating when atomizing common tablet coating solutions under typical processing conditions. In pharmaceutically relevant applications, the liquids being atomized are typically complex, non-Newtonian fluids which may contain poly...

Emotional signals are crucial for sharing important information, with conspecifics, for example, to warn humans of danger. Humans use a range of different cues to communicate to others how they feel, including facial, vocal, and gestural signals. We examined the recognition of nonverbal emotional vocalizations, such as screams and laughs, across two dramatically different cultural groups. Weste...

Gelled fuels have promising applications in the aerospace field. Higher density and calorific value can be achieved with addition of energetic metal particles to gelled fuels, which also effectively improve combustion efficiency fuel thus enhance engine performance. However, make rheological properties more complex, introduces difficulties regarding their atomization combustion. In order invest...
