New Horizon in Selective Tocols Extraction from Deodorizer Distillates Under Mild Conditions by Using Deep Eutectic Solvents by Dian Maria Ulfa, Asep Bayu, Siti Irma Rahmawati, Peni Ahmadi, Masteria Yunovilsa Putra, Surachai Karnjanakom, Guoqing Guan, Abdul Mun’im

“…The basic principles of intermolecular interactions (H-bond, van der Walls bond, and misfit interaction) between DESs or their components with tocols are discussed to understand the mechanism by which DESs selectively extract tocols from the mixture. This is mainly observed to be a function of the intrinsic properties of DESs and/or tocols, which could be beneficial for tuning the appropriate DESs for extracting tocols selectively and effectively under mild operation conditions. …”

Kriging-Based Variable Screening Method for Aircraft Optimization Problems with Expensive Functions by Yadong Wang, Xinyao Duan, Jiang Wang, Jin Guo, Minglei Han

“…The computational complexity of airfoil optimization for aircraft wing designs typically involves high-dimensional parameter spaces defined by geometric variables, where each Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation cycle may require significant processing resources. Therefore, performing variable selection to identify influential inputs becomes crucial for minimizing the number of necessary model evaluations, particularly when dealing with complex systems exhibiting nonlinear and poorly understood input–output relationships. …”
