This paper presents a prediction of chemical shrinkage volume created during the hydration of two cements over time using a thermodynamic model. Chemical shrinkage in hydrating cements is a result of internal volume change over time within sealed conditi...

Hot and arid areas are considered a harsh environment when it comes to cleaning photovoltaic (PV) modules. Minimizing the panel tilt angle makes it evident that dust and other substances such as airborne dirt (both organic and inorganic) and bird droppin...
