This paper describes a novel approach for predicting the thermal impact of gas cavitation in hydraulic circuits. The developed model utilizes a thermal-hydraulic modeling concept for calculating the oil temperatures inside the control volumes divided from the circuit, taking into account the gas...

This article studies income inequality in five countries and compares the redistributive consequences of taxes and transfers across these countries.

Campbell and Vuolteenaho (CV, 2004) empirically decompose the S&P 500's dividend yield from 1927 to 2002 to derive a measure of residual mispricing attributed to inflation illusion. They argue that the strong positive correlation between the mispricing component and inflation is strong evidence...

In this study, the Ir 33 Ni 28 Ta 39 bulk metallic glass (BMG) is used as the object and the influence of different loads and loading rates on the room-temperature creep behaviour of Ir 33 Ni 28 Ta 39 BMG are investigated using nanoindentation technology. The results show that the...

High-performance foams play significant roles in many industries for thermal insulation and cushion applications. Microcellular foaming with carbon dioxide and nitrogen as blowing agents is an advanced and environmentally friendly technology to prepare polymeric foams with significantly refined...
