This article presents the functional properties of modified versions of the 2D pressure−pressure intensity probe allowing us to determine the vector of sound intensity on a plane using a mechatronic system with one or two miniature electret microphones.The introduction contains basic information about the application areas of the sound intens
An empirical study of trade effect on culture
Given the global dominance of COFFEE CHAGA American movies, they play a significant role in presenting U.S.ideology and culture to the world, thus raising concern of undermining domestic culture.This paper investigates whether trade shapes culture by studying the impact of imported American movies on Chinese cultural values measured by Hofstede Ind
Making parts on Mars: Laser processing of iron contaminated by regolith simulant
Manufacturing pure metals on Mars is challenging due to limited energy resources and unavoidable contamination of raw materials and production equipment with the Martian dust (regolith) resulting in impure materials.Understanding the effect of contamination on Chair Beds material properties is crucial for establishing materials manufacturing on Mar
Development of Decontamination Treatment Techniques for Dry Powder Foods by Atmospheric-Pressure Nonequilibrium DC Pulse Discharge Plasma Jet
Dry powder food ingredients imported to Japan contain large amounts of viable bacteria and coliform bacteria, and we need a simple, low-cost, dry nonthermal decontamination method without spoiling nutrients, color, fragrance, and flavor.In this study, it is shown that the decontamination performance against viable bacteria and coliform Womens Socks
