A detailed knowledge of the interface between a sliding ball and an axial bearing surface allows to shed light on how to reduce friction and hbl5266ca wear in bearings under slippage conditions.To study the interface, the contact was investigated applying micro-pin-on-disk tests without grease or oil lubrication.As pins sapphire half-balls and 100C
Effect of atmospheric flux uncertainties on the determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy
The next generation of large-volume neutrino telescopes will include low-energy subarrays which will here be able to measure neutrinos with energies of a few GeV.In this energy range the primary signal below the horizon is neutrinos created by cosmic ray interactions in the atmosphere.The measured event rate will depend on the neutrino mass hierarc
Curvature sensing lipid dynamics in a mitochondrial inner membrane model
Abstract Membrane curvature is essential for many cellular structures and processes, and factors such as leaflet asymmetry, lipid composition, and proteins all play important roles.Cardiolipin is the signature lipid of mitochondrial membranes and is essential for maintaining the highly curved shapes of the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) and the
Analyzing the Features of Passenger Drop-Off Behavior at Airport Curbsides: A Case Study From Guangxi Province, China
Vehicles often face congestion at airport curbsides because private vehicles, taxis, and ride-hailing vehicles compete for limited space while dropping off passengers.This competition may lead to blockages and long dwell times, thus worsening the congestion.To solve this issue, management strategies such as first-in-first-out queuing or hbl5266ca f
