Characteristics and microscopic mechanisms of smoke emissions of OMMT/SBS-modified asphalt by Wanhong Yang, Zhenghao Zhang, Xiaolong Yang, Xiaofan Jia, Yixin Jiang

“…Pyrolysis gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (PY-GC–MS), fluorescence microscopy (FM), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) were used to explore the characteristics and microscopic mechanisms of flue gas emissions. The addition of OMMT effectively reduced the emissions of carbon dioxide and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in asphalt flue gas, as well as increased the SBS swelling degree in the asphalt matrix and the compatibility between the SBS and asphalt matrix. …”

Point of Common Coupling Voltage Modulated Direct Power Control of Grid-Tied Photovoltaic Inverter for AC Microgrid Application by Shameem Ahmad, Hamza Mubarak, Umme Kulsum Jhuma, Tofael Ahmed, Saad Mekhilef, Hazlie Mokhlis

“…Because of the absence of the PLL and DPC method adoption, the suggested controller has a faster convergence rate compared to traditional VSI’s power controllers. Additionally, it displays nearly zero steady-state power oscillations, which assure that MG’s power quality is improved significantly. …”

An Oseen Two-Level Stabilized Mixed Finite-Element Method for the 2D/3D Stationary Navier-Stokes Equations by Aiwen Wang, Xin Zhao, Peihua Qin, Dongxiu Xie

“…Firstly, in contrast to other stabilized methods, they are parameter free, no calculation of higher-order derivatives and edge-based data structures, implemented at the element level with minimal cost. In addition, the Oseen two-level stabilized method involves solving one small nonlinear Navier-Stokes problem on the coarse mesh with mesh size H, a large general Stokes equation on the fine mesh with mesh size h=O(H)2. …”
