Exploring bee colony dynamics: temperature and humidity monitoring as indicators of colony activity (2025)

Honeybee (Apis mellifera) colonies play a crucial role in supporting both ecological balance and agricultural productivity through their pollination activities. Understanding the internal conditions of a honeybee colony is essential for assessing its health, productivity, and seasonal behavior. In recent years, the concept of precision beekeeping has gained momentum, introducing digital tools and sensor-based methods to continuously monitor hive parameters without disturbing the bees. Temperatur

Humidity and Temperature Monitoring in the Atlantic Forest (2023)

Abstract This paper presents the realization of a study of monitoring and data analysis using humidity and temperature data loggers in a biodiversity hotspot of the Atlantic Forest in southeastern Brazil. The study was carried out with students from the José Pinto Coelho State School of Elementary and Secondary Education who collected data from their homes located in different regions of the Municipality of Santa Teresa, found 80 km from Vitória, capital of the State of Espírito Santo. I

Distant temperature and humidity monitoring: prediction and measurement (2023)

Sensing environmental measuring parameters has a pivotal role in our everyday lives. Most of our daily life activities depend upon environmental conditions. Accurate information about these parameters also helps in several industrial applications like ventilation rate calculation, energy prediction, stock maintenance in warehouses, and saving from harmful conditions. The emergence of machine learning can make it easy to predict such time series problems. This paper describes the design of a remo

Role of Ionic Strength in Solubility of Salts in India (2024)

Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the role of ionic strength in solubility of salts in India. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and li

EFFECTS OF PH, TEMPERATURE, IONIC STRENGTH AND ORGANIC MATTER ON TRICLOCARBAN SOLUBILITY (2021)

The solubility of triclocarban in ultrapure water and in several natural aqueous solutions is influenced by several environmental factors. In this study the variation of temperature, pH, ionic strength and concentration of the organic matter over the solubility of triclocarban was analysed. The results show that the solubility of triclocarban increases by increasing the contact time, longer than the time of equilibrium and the temperature. It is less influenced by the variations of pH and strong

Nigella sativa: A Potent Secondary Metabolite (2022)

Nigella sativa, commonly known as black seed possess an extensive pharmacological potential and has emerged as a wonder herb with a rich historical and religious background. For decades, people all over the world have utilised N. sativa seeds and oil to treat a wide range of illnesses. Because black seed was stated as the cure for every illness except for death in one of the Prophetic hadiths, it is regarded by Muslims as one of the greatest forms of curative medicine accessible.

CONTACT ANGLE OF COAL WETTING WITH WATER (2021)

It is known that in the process of coking a compacted coal charge during its ramming in an industrial ramming-loading-pushing machine, the moisture of the charge plays the role of a compaction agent. On the basis of this, the authors put forward a reasonable assumption that the higher the ability of coal grains to hydration, the stronger the contact between them and, accordingly, the greater the density of the formed rammed coal cake. Therefore, the determination of the ability to hydrate the su

Partial and complete wetting of thin films with dynamic contact angle (2023)

The wetting of thin films depends critically on the sign of the spreading coefficient S = γ S G − ( γ S L + γ L G ). We discuss the cases S < 0, S = 0, and S > 0 for transient models with contact line dissipation and find that the use of a dynamic contact angle solves problems for S > 0 that models might otherwise have. For initial data with a non-zero slope and S > 0, we show that there exists a finite time t p at which the contact angle of the thin film goes to zero

Wetting Behavior of Cationic and Anionic Surfactants on Hydrophobic Surfaces: Surface Tension and Contact Angle Measurements (2026)

In this study, cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and anionic surfactant sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) are employed to systematically investigate surface and wetting properties on hydrophobic surfaces, specifically in mixed solvents composed of ethylene glycol (EG) and water at 298.15 K. By varying the concentration of each surfactant within the EG–water mixture, both surface tension and contact angle measurements are performed to elucidate how surfactant t

Surface Testing of Dental Biomaterials—Determination of Contact Angle and Surface Free Energy (2021)

The key goal of this study was to characterize surface properties of chosen dental materials on the base on the contact angle measurements and surface free energy calculations. Tested materials were incubated in the simulated oral environment and drinks to estimate an influence of conditions similar to those in the oral cavity on wetting and energetic state of the surface. Types of materials were as follows: denture acrylic resins, composite and PET-G dental retainer to compare basic materials u
