We present additional data on the dielectric constant (relative permittivity) and liquid density of mixtures of carbon dioxide (CO2) and squalane (2,6,10,15,19,23-hexamethyltetracosane) for temperatures between 283 K and 343 K. The data were obtained in the apparatus of Ref. [1] using the same experimental procedure. The first-order Redlich–Kister ...

The reported experimental density and viscosity of polyethylene glycol 600 + methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, and 2-propanol were mathematically represented using a simple and single mathematical model, namely, the Jouyban–Acree model. The results obtained revealed that one may accurately calculate the density, viscosity, and the physico-chemical pro...

BackgroundThe goal was to investigate changes of the inner intra-retinal layer thicknesses and retinal capillary density (RCD) around the macula in thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) patients with or without dysthyroid optic neuropathy (DON).MethodsForty-four TAO patients including 23 non-DON and 21 DON patients, and 38 healthy participants we...

This work was undertaken to investigate whether physical data exhibit any tendencies spanning the whole mineralogical system. The chemical compositions of 4973 minerals was projected into two variables, Qual_4 and InfEnt, the first a function of the atomic numbers of elements present, the second, an indication of complexity of their stoichiometry. ...

Mineral resource exploitation by human societies throughout history led to the deposit of mining and smelting wastes and the subsequent contamination of surrounding soils by trace metals. After several centuries, the impact of these legacy hazardous wastes may remain a cause of environmental concern, especially for indigenous soil invertebrate popu...

Global warming and finite amount of oil resources have become serious issues. For this reason, the development of eco-friendly vehicles, using biofuel or oher materials has attracted significant attention. In particular, bioethanol has been focused on as an alternative to gasoline because it does not require a full-scale remodeling of a conventiona...

BackgroundResearch of many mammal species tends to focus on single habitats, reducing knowledge of ecological flexibility. The Javan lutung (Trachypithecus auratus) is considered a strict forest primate, and little is known about populations living in savannah. In 2017–2018, we investigated the density and distribution of Javan lutung in Baluran Na...

Densities of pure 1-heptanol, 1-decanol, n-heptane, n-octane, n-nonane, n-decane, and their binary liquid mixtures were measured over the entire range of composition at (288.15, 293.15, 298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15) K and at atmospheric pressure (0.1 MPa). The experimental data were used to determine several thermophysical properties including, t...

We have entered the epoch of the Anthropocene. Now with humanity itself being a sizeable force of nature, we can no longer ignore the impact we have on the planet’s systems, as it is also increasingly impacting our societies, through climate change. This is occurring while major cities are still experiencing an increase in population. Amsterdam is ...

In the coming decades, cities will have to house a lot more residents. For now, this unavoidable change is yet unimaginable. However, cities do have to prepare for challenges to come. Cities face the task to offer more housing in an already set framework of the existing context. How can a provision of housing be made in a dense urban context like M...
