Exploring Size and Shape on Soils and Sediments of the Moon, the Earth and the Ocean
Soil and sediment analysis is essential for human beings, which provides fingerprints to their origin. The main categories of soil and sediment analysis include hydrology and geology studies. Particle size and shape are challenging in soil and sediment analysis. Why? Soil samples are polymorphic and...
Improving the Tapped Density of the Cathode Material to make a Lithium-ion Battery Hold More Energy
Tapped density is one of two important physical properties of electrode materials and affects the energy density of a Li-ion battery (LIB). The other important physical property is the particle size distribution which provides the appropriate information to optimize the grinding parameters during pr...
Investigating the Relation Between Coffee Extraction and Ground Coffee Size
Particle size and size distributions of ground coffee significantly affect the extraction level and the flavor quality of brewed coffee. Monitoring the particle sizes and size distributions in ground coffees is necessary. In this note, different ground coffees were successfully characterized by the ...
