VERTICAL PROFILES OF POLLUTION PARTICLE CONCENTRATIONS IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER ABOVE PARIS (FRANCE) FROM THE OPTICAL AEROSOL COUNTER LOAC ONBOARD A TOURISTIC BALLOON

Vertical Profiles of Pollution Particle Concentrations in the Boundary Layer above Paris (France) from the Optical Aerosol Counter LOAC Onboard a Touristic Balloon

Atmospheric pollution by particulate matter represents a significant health risk and needs continuous monitoring by air quality networks that provide mass concentrations for PM10 and PM2.5 (particles with diameter smaller than 10 μm and 2.5 μm, respectively).We present here a new approach to monitor the urban particles content, using six

A multiscale perspective on the kinetics of solid state transformations with application to bainite formation

We give an excerpt of recent developments in the MOTHERWORT experimentally benchmarked modeling of bainite formation in the press hardening process.As the press hardening process poses a heavily multi-parameter dependent modeling challenge, we focus on three main branches which complement each other.We emphasise the combination of basic sharp inter

Design of Compact Antenna Array for MIMO Implementation Using Characteristic Mode Analysis for 5G NR and Wi-Fi 6 Applications

In this paper, we present a compact antenna for 5G new radio (NR) and Wi-Fi 6 applications.Using characteristic mode analysis (CMA), two orthogonal modes have been separated and then a gap-coupled shaped feed-line has been used to excite the radiator.An open stub is added to achieve the wide operating bandwidth of the antenna.The size of a Dual Fue
