Abstract:
Lifetime reproduction of female transgenic rat growth hormone (TRrGH) mice and their normal siblings was evaluated on a high-protein (38%) diet, a standard diet (23% protein), and the standard diet supplemented with sucrose cubes. Compared with those on the standard diet, normal mice fed the high-protein diet showed significant increases in litter size, number of litters, and lifetime fecundity. Number of litters and lifetime fecundity were also enhanced in normal mice fed sucrose. TRrGH mice showed no significant improvements in reproduction on the high-protein diet, but they were significantly smaller. Sucrose dramatically improved reproduction of TRrGH mice, with no reduction in mature mass. The percentage of fertile TRrGH mice increased from 45% on standard chow to 71% with sucrose. The number and size of litters of TRrGH mice also significantly increased with sucrose, mean lifetime fecundity doubling from 9 pups on standard food to 18 pups on sucrose. However, TRrGH mice did not attain the reproductive success of normal mice on any diet. These results suggest that TRrGH mice are energetically stressed by enforced channelling of energy into growth. An immense literature addresses infertility due to energy limitation and stress generally. We synthesize these aspects with growth hormone transgenesis to derive an integrated view of neuroendocrine energy regulation relevant to restoring fertility of transgenic GH animals.

Abstract:
Knowledge of the diet ecology of apex predators in insular island ecosystems has direct applications to the conservation of endemic species at risk of extinction. We used stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen to infer resource-use strategies of an indigenous predator, the Pacific marten (Martes caurina (Merriam, 1890)), in a highly modified ecosystem on Haida Gwaii, British Columbia, Canada. We used Bayesian isotopic mixing models to estimate the relative contributions of different food sources to marten diet across seasons and during overall lifetime, and to determine how diet varied with different levels of access to marine resources. Isotopes of carbon and nitrogen measured in hair and muscle tissue suggested that marten consumed salmon (3%–17%) and berries (25%–37%) seasonally; these diet groups were relatively minor components of the lifetime diet. Analysis of bone collagen suggested that terrestrial fauna — including birds, deer, small mammals, and invertebrates — contributed the most to diet (41%–55%), and marine invertebrates (38%–48%), not salmon (0%–3%), were the main allochthonous marine nutrient subsidy to lifetime diet. Plasticity in foraging ecology, combined with a broad dietary niche, introduced prey, notably the invasive Sitka black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus sitkensis Merriam, 1898), as well as abundant marine resources, may allow marten to outcompete other indigenous and endemic carnivores on Haida Gwaii.

Abstract:
Dietary transitions, such as eliminating meat consumption, have been proposed as one way to reduce the climate impact of the global and regional food systems. However, it should be ensured that replacement diets are, indeed, nutritious and that climate benefits are accurately accounted for. This study uses New Zealand food consumption as a case study for exploring the cumulative climate impact of adopting the national dietary guidelines and the substitution of meat from hypothetical diets. The new GWP* metric is used as it was designed to better reflect the climate impacts of the release of methane than the de facto standard 100-year Global Warming Potential metric (GWP100). A transition at age 25 to the hypothetical dietary guideline diet reduces cumulative warming associated with diet by 7 to 9% at the 100th year compared with consuming the average New Zealand diet. The reduction in diet-related cumulative warming from the transition to a hypothetical meat-substituted diet varied between 12% and 15%. This is equivalent to reducing an average individual’s lifetime warming contribution by 2 to 4%. General improvements are achieved for nutrient intakes by adopting the dietary guidelines compared with the average New Zealand diet; however, the substitution of meat items results in characteristic nutrient differences, and these differences must be considered alongside changes in emission profiles.

AbstractObjectiveTo demonstrate test–retest reliability (reproducibility) of a new self-administered lifetime diet questionnaire, with a focus on foods relevant to cognitive health in older age.DesignThe reproducibility of dietary recall over four or five life periods was assessed by administering the questionnaire at two time points to an older cohort. The period between questionnaire administrations was 7 weeks. Polychoric correlations measured the association between recall at time 1 and time 2 and the weightedκstatistic measured the level of recall agreement for food groups across the two administrations of the questionnaire.SettingAdelaide, South Australia.SubjectsFifty-two cognitively healthy, older-age, community-dwelling adults completed the Lifetime Diet Questionnaire; mean age 81·8 (sd4·4) years, range 70–90 years.ResultsThe questionnaire showed very good reproducibility in this sample with a mean polychoric correlation coefficient of 0·81 between administration at time 1 and time 2, and an average weightedκof 0·49 for the level of recall agreement between food groups.ConclusionsThe demonstrated reliability of this lifetime diet questionnaire makes it a useful tool to assess potential relationships between long-term dietary intake and later-age cognitive outcomes.

AbstractObjectivesTo identify dietary transition stages based on dietary patterns of adult Haitians having lived in Montreal for various lengths of time, and to assess associated dietary quality.SubjectsOne hundred and eighty-one Haitians aged 25–60 years were recruited by the modified random digit dialling method.DesignSocio-economic, diet and lifestyle variables were documented by questionnaire. Three non-consecutive 24-hour dietary recalls were conducted over a 3-month period. Dietary patterns were studied using cluster analysis, and their association with proportion of lifetime in Canada and with socio-economic status (SES) was examined. Diet quality criteria were micronutrient adequacy and healthfulness based on dietary recommendations of the World Health Organization.ResultsFour dietary phenotypes were identified which could roughly represent stages of dietary transition or acculturation (Traditional, Pre-Western, Western and Modern). Subjects in the ‘Traditional’ cluster were older and had lived for a significantly lower proportion of their lifetime in Canada; they also tended to be of lower SES. Diet quality was significantly higher in the ‘Traditional’ than the ‘Western’ type, particularly with respect to healthfulness. A significantly lower proportion of subjects complying with limited intake of total fat ( < 30%) and cholesterol ( < 45%) was observed in the ‘Western’ compared with other diet phenotypes. Less than 15% of all subjects consumed enough dietary fibre, irrespective of diet type.ConclusionDietary transition stages could be identified on the basis of food patterns of Haitians according to the proportion of their lifetime in Canada. Encouraging the youth to retain the traditional food culture in its positive aspects would appear relevant.

Abstract:
Longitudinal studies have revealed how variation in resource use within consumer populations can impact their dynamics and functional significance in communities. Here, we investigate multi-decadal diet variations within individuals of a keystone megaherbivore species, the African elephant ( Loxodonta africana ), using serial stable isotope analysis of tusks from the Kruger National Park, South Africa. These records, representing the longest continuous diet histories documented for any extant species, reveal extensive seasonal and annual variations in isotopic—and hence dietary—niches of individuals, but little variation between them. Lack of niche distinction across individuals contrasts several recent studies, which found relatively high levels of individual niche specialization in various taxa. Our result is consistent with theory that individual mammal herbivores are nutritionally constrained to maintain broad diet niches. Individual diet specialization would also be a costly strategy for large-bodied taxa foraging over wide areas in spatio-temporally heterogeneous environments. High levels of within-individual diet variability occurred within and across seasons, and persisted despite an overall increase in inferred C 4 grass consumption through the twentieth century. We suggest that switching between C 3 browsing and C 4 grazing over extended time scales facilitates elephant survival through environmental change, and could even allow recovery of overused resources.

Abstract:
Background: Women diagnosed as having a high risk for breast cancer (HR-BC) often seek different health behaviors (HBs) such as complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), diet, and exercise to improve their health and cancer outcome. Methods: Women already enrolled in a multimodality screening study for patients at HR-BC (gene mutation carrier or >20% cumulative lifetime risk) were given a questionnaire to evaluate their use of CAM therapies, diet, and exercise before and after a diagnosis of HR-BC. Patients were also asked to complete the Short-Form 36, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Beck Depression Inventory. Results: A total of 134 (67%) subjects completed the survey from the original cohort. General characteristics included a median age of 46 years (range = 24-73 years), majority were White (91%), BRCA1/2 gene mutation carrier (49%), and prior diagnosis of breast and/or ovarian cancer (30%). Almost all of the patients reported a lifetime prevalence of any HB (97%) and CAM utilization (91%). Subjects also had a high lifetime utilization of exercise (83%), herbs and supplements(72%), and diet programs (58%). All of these HBs declined in utilization after diagnosis of HR-BC by as much as 30%. After diagnosis of a HR-BC, a personal history of breast and/or ovarian cancer was significantly correlated with increased use of CAM (odds ratio [OR] = 5.9, P < .01), herbs and supplements (OR = 4.3, P < .01), and diet program (OR = 4.4, P < .01) in multivariate analysis. Conclusions: HBs such as CAM, diet, and exercise are highly prevalent among women with HR-BC, and the utilization of HB decreases significantly after diagnosis of HR-BC.

Abstract:
Abstract The effect of dietary isoflavones in the form of NOVASOY (NS) was investigated on methylnitrosourea-initiated mammary gland cancer in F1 generation female Sprague Dawley rats from parents who had undergone lifetime exposure to variable levels of dietary NS. In comparison to NS-free dietary groups, lifetime exposure of F1 rats to 40 and 1000 mg/kg diets of NS reduced tumor latency, but did not significantly affect tumor incidence, tumor size, or tumor multiplicity. A significantly lower tumor multiplicity was, however, observed in rats fed the soy-based, NS-free diet compared to the casein-based, NS-free diet. An evaluation of a dose-response relationship pointed towards a biphasic effect, with a trend showing lower tumor incidence, lower tumor multiplicity, and lower tumor size in rats fed 1000 mg/kg diet NS compared to 40 mg/kg diet NS; however, the data failed to achieve statistical significance. Histologically, tumor type significantly differed according to the administered basal diet variety and NS dose. Our data and that of others provide conflicting evidence for chemopreventive effects of soy isoflavones on mammary gland tumor induction. We suggest standardization of interlaboratory experimental approaches for establishing low dose-response relationships for soy and its isoflavones to aid in risk assessment.

Abstract:
The focus of this work was on the use of otolith microchemistry and fish eye lens chemical profiles to measure fish movement and provided indirect support for the use of otolith microchemistry to examine exposure to crude oil. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the applications of otolith microchemistry and eye lens isotopic profiles. In the second chapter, which examined associations between metal exposure and lesion formation in fishes collected after the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill, I did not observe any change in oil-associated metal concentrations in otoliths coinciding with the timing of the DWH oil spill. This suggests that either the technique used is not sensitive enough to detect any transient changes that may have occurred because of exposure to the oil spill or that the fish examined were not exposed to the oil spill. However, I did find that lesioned fish may have been exposed to a persistent source of trace-metals in the GoM prior to, during, and after the oil spill, and metal-induced immunomodulation may have occurred in these fish. These interactions between the physiological and environmental modulation of otolith element incorporation were explored further in Chapter 3 in which multiple tests demonstrated that physiology explained more of the variation in otolith chemical tags than ambient water chemistry. These findings suggest that the use of otolith microchemistry alone to track fish movement and potential exposure to harmful metals may be complicated by physiological control of otolith microchemistry. Thus, in Chapter 4, I pursued a novel method to evaluate the movement of fish across isoscapes of varying δ15N. I validated the use of fish eye lenses as potential lifetime recorders of isotopic histories and in Chapter 5 compared the use of fish eye lens δ15N profiles to otolith microchemistry profiles to examine fish movement. Both techniques suggested similar patterns of movement in Red Snapper from the northern GoM to the West Florida Shelf. This is the first study to use these complimentary techniques to track fish movement.

Abstract:
Scotland has the highest rates of child obesity in Europe with more than 1 in every 4 children aged between 2 and 15 being overweight or obese in 2008. The need to curb the nation’s unhealthy eating habits through Scottish public health policy has been acknowledged, although there remains a shortage of policy addressing the eating habits of infants and young children as they develop in the context of family life. This is matched by a shortage of empirical research which uses nationally representative longitudinal data on Scottish children, to look at how diets of children under five develop within the home. This doctoral research seeks to explain how children’s nutritional trajectories develop from birth through infancy and into early childhood in contemporary Scotland within the context of maternal resources, maternal use of nutrition advice, and family meal habits. Theoretical concepts pertaining to social constructionism and the symbolic meaning of meal rituals, as well as theories of risk and responsibilisation, human capital and health behaviours, and discussions about agency and structure, frame the research questions and the interpretation of results. The research draws on the first three annual sweeps of the Growing Up in Scotland nationally representative, longitudinal survey of families and young children. The analysis is based on multivariate proportional hazards regression and logistic regression models. The empirical analysis shows that maternal education is a consistently superior predictor of children’s nutritional outcomes, when compared to maternal occupational classification and household income, and that children of more educated mothers have healthier diets throughout infancy and childhood. This points to the utility of human capital theories which stress the importance of education, rather than income, and also reflects on the need for policy to recognise the structural nature of nutritional inequalities. More educated mothers are also more likely to be proactive in using healthy eating advice, resonating with theories of risk awareness and medicalised childhoods. Surprisingly, mothers from disadvantaged backgrounds are more likely to use advice from health professionals, possibly as a result of health professionals actively targeting their support to more ‘at risk’ families. Yet these mothers are also more apprehensive about the interference of health professionals in aspects of childrearing. Relevant policy reflections pointed to the need to identify how support for mothers from more disadvantaged backgrounds can be provided in formats which help to overcome the culture of mistrust towards health professionals prevalent among disadvantaged parents. Nevertheless, positive associations between infant diet and maternal use of breastfeeding advice from health professionals are found, in line with theories of power-knowledge, lending support to information-based policy initiatives as a tool for improving infant nutrition. The analysis also indicates that children who are breastfed, and children who are weaned later have healthier diets in their toddler years, which contributes to the proposal of a theoretical typology explaining how young children’s nutritional trajectories evolve from the pre-partum period through infancy and childhood. Finally, the analysis suggests that communal patterns of eating play an important role in children’s dietary quality, attesting to the importance of the meal ritual as a vehicle for socialising children into developing particular tastes for food. Thus, there seems to be room for policy initiatives which address not only what children eat, but how young children and families eat in the context of everyday family life.

Abstract:
Dietary intake may impact upon the trajectory of older-age cognitive change and decline via nutritional mechanisms that contribute to brain health and functioning, and to the risk of chronic diseases associated with poorer late life cognitive outcomes. Diet is a modifiable environmental exposure. As such, it provides an avenue for intervention to promote better cognitive functioning and delay or prevent cognitive impairment and dementia that are placing an increasing burden on older individuals, their families and the health system. The majority of studies that have investigated the nutritional determinants of healthy cognitive ageing have done so within populations older than 65, but the long-term aetiology of cognitive change extends years and even decades prior to the onset of noticeable decline. Thus, the salience of diet to an individual’s cognitive ageing trajectory is likely to extend back into the life-periods prior to older age. Even the longest prospective studies do not have dietary records extending over the lifetime; therefore, determining the relationship, if any, between earlier-life diet and later-life cognitive health requires an alternate approach to gathering lifetime dietary data. The objective of this thesis was to develop a retrospective dietary reporting instrument to measure intake from multiple life-periods, then to investigate cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between lifetime diet and cognitive performance in cognitively healthy older-adults. Studies 1 to 3 investigated the reliability and validity of the Lifetime Diet Questionnaire (LDQ); the dietary assessment instrument developed in the context of the thesis to measure past diet. Study 1 was a preliminary study of dietary recall using the foods and frequencies of the LDQ. The strength of associations was tested between young adults’ (n=203) recall of earlier adolescent diet, and one or more family members’ recall of the same individual’s diet over the same period. Study 2 assessed the test-retest reliability of LDQ’s five life-periods in older adults (n=51). Both measures of reliability fell within acceptable limits. In Study 1, the average association between family members recall of an individual’s past intake was 0.73, while in Study 2, the average test-retest reliability of the questionnaire across all life-periods in an older sample was 0.81. Study 3 (n=352) recruited participants from the EPOCH trial (a randomised controlled trial of Omega-3 fish oil on older-age cognitive change). The validity of long-term dietary recall was investigated by testing the associations between lifetime dietary patterns extracted from the LDQ, and the EPOCH participants’ demographic and cardiovascular health variables. Lifetime dietary patterns were related to the demographic variables of age, sex, education, income, parental background, and childhood physical activity; patterns from childhood and adulthood also predicted cardiac medication use and cholesterol level in older age. Studies 4 and 5 used the same cohort to examine the relationships between LDQ dietary patterns and cross-sectional cognitive performance (Study 4) and 18-month cognitive change over 4 time points (Study 5). After controlling for relevant covariates and current dietary intake, all dietary patterns from the childhood period predicted baseline level of cognitive performance, and a ‘non-traditional Australian’ pattern in middle age predicted 18-month cognitive change. These preliminary findings have implications for the relevance of diet as a lifetime determinant of older-age cognitive health.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to explore differences in lifetime excess cancer risk (LECR) for Canadians from intake of contaminants in food and beverages based on geographic location, gender and income levels. A probabilistic risk assessment approach (Monte Carlo simulation) was used to estimate the range and frequency of possible daily contaminant intakes for Canadians, and associate these intake levels with lifetime excess cancer risk. Monte Carlo risk simulation was applied to estimate probable contaminant intake and associated lifetime excess cancer risk from arsenic, benzene, lead, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and tetrachloroethylene (PERC) in 60 whole foods from the dietary patterns of 34,944 Canadians from 10 provinces, as derived from Health Canada’s Canadian Community Health Survey, Cycle 2.2, Nutrition (2004)1. These results were compared to the current Health Canada guideline that suggests that 10 extra cancers per one million people is a negligible risk. Of the 5 contaminants tested in my model arsenic showed the greatest difference between urban and rural estimated lifetime excess cancer risk, although extra cancers in both rural and urban Canada were predicted from exposure to PCB and benzene. Lifetime excess cancer risk is estimated to be higher for men in Canada for all five contaminants, with an emphasis on males in British Columbia compared to females from the dietary intake of arsenic. When based on income level, my model predicts extra cancers higher for low and middle incomes from dietary exposures to arsenic, benzene, lead and PERC, however, high income populations are more likely to have extra cancers from dietary intake of PCBs.

Abstract:
The measurement of the stable isotope ratios of carbon and nitrogen in human bone collagen revolutionized archaeology in the late 1970s, when it was shown to be a precise indicator for the spread of maize agriculture in North America. Diagenetic alteration of the collagen was shown to be essentially irrelevant in such work, unlike the problems of post-mortem alteration which confused the studies of dietary reconstruction from trace elements in bone, which were being carried out at the same time. Stable isotopes in collagen have gone on to become ubiquitous in archaeology, addressing such major issues as the dietary change from marine to terrestrial protein sources during the Mesolithic–Neolithic transition in Europe. Comparison of stable isotopes in different elements of the same human skeleton have also been used to detect lifetime mobility, using the fact that some skeletal elements are remodelled faster than others. Other aspects, such as gender and status differences in dietary habits, and the effect of weaning on infant skeletons, have also been studied. The greater durability and resistance to diagenesis of dental enamel has also been used to study mobility, and to identify ‘foreigners’ in burial assemblages, using the isotopic measurements of strontium and oxygen. The stability of enamel has also allowed dietary behaviour to be studied on fossil hominins, using measurements of carbon and oxygen isotopes in the carbonate phase within the enamel. It is now relatively routine to carry out ‘isotopic ecology’ studies in many parts of the world, where human and animal bones are used to reconstruct complete food webs. The chemical and isotopic study of bone has been one of the great success stories of archaeological chemistry over the last 50 years.

Abstract:
The Framingham Heart Study (FHS) was established in 1948 and is the longest, ongoing prospective cohort study studying cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Initially, the FHS was primarily focused on cardiovascular diseases; however, over recent decades data from the FHS have found that lifetime exposure to major cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, arterial stiffness, and pressure pulsatility adversely impact neuropsychological functioning particularly in older individuals contributing to the onset of dementia including Alzheimer’s disease. Research from the FHS suggest that appropriate management of cardiovascular risk factors as well as healthy lifestyle practices that include regular blood pressure monitoring, not smoking, and eating a choline-rich diet appear to minimize neuropsychological decline as well as dementia onset.

Abstract:
This chapter describes the Healthy Ageing across the Life Course (HALCyon) NDA collaborative research project, the aim of which was to investigate biological and social factors from early life that influence healthy ageing in later life. Healthy ageing was studied as optimal functioning at the individual level, in terms of physical and cognitive capability and wellbeing. The roles of lifetime socioeconomic circumstances, cognitive development and education, body size and diet were investigated, as well as underlying biology (the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, telomeres and genes). The project undertook: systematic reviews and meta-analyses of all available studies; comparative analysis using harmomised data across nine British cohort studies; in depth analysis of single cohorts with unique data; and qualitative interviews with sub-samples of participants from three of these cohorts.

Abstract:
"Background: Several psychological features are implicated in the dieting success. Better understanding of these features may allow reducing dieting failure of both surgical and non-surgical weight loss interventions, especially for individuals with food addiction (FA). In non-clinical population, low perceived self-regulatory success (PSRS) in dieting is associated with higher BMI (body mass index), FA, food craving and impulsivity. PSRS could partially explain weight gain in FA, but no study investigated this association in the specific FA population. Method: To diagnose FA, 288 women recruited online completed The Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0. They also completed the following self-administrated questionnaires: the French adaptation of the PSRS in dieting scale, the Food Craving Questionnaire Trait-Reduced, and the Barratt Impulsivity Scale-11. They specified their height, current and lifetime maximal weight, and if they were in a current diet. Mean age was 26.1±10.3 years. Mean current BMI was 23.4±5.5 kg/m². Results: 79 women met criteria for FA (27.4%), indicating significant less PSRS in dieting and higher probability to be in a current diet to lose weight. In the whole population (n=288), PSRS in dieting was negatively correlated with current and lifetime maximal BMI, food craving, FA, attentional and non-planning impulsivity. In a multiple linear regression conducted in the subgroup of women with FA, PSRS score was predicted by age, current BMI, food addiction and food craving. More, results suggested food craving enable the association between food addiction and PSRS. Conclusion: These results showed the high preoccupation about food intake and weight gain in the FA population. Psychological features associated with FA such as food craving and impulsivity, seem to impact the PSRS in dieting, increasing psychological vulnerability."

Abstract:
Abstract As processors continually seek greater computational output, the traditional single die processor configuration is giving way to emerging multi-die processor assemblies. As a result, dies of varying powers are spatially distributed in processor packages, causing local areas of high heat density and non-uniform temperature patterns. If not properly addressed, local hot spots may limit the total device operating power, increase leakage current to lower processor efficiency, and accelerate thermal induced semiconductor deterioration to reduce device lifetime. In this article, a modular microconvective heat sink (M2HS) is developed as a high effectiveness, high flexibility cooling solution for multi-die assemblies. Microconvective cooling, featuring optimized single-phase impingement cooling and effluent fluid flow control, provides high power density heat removal from localized heat flux zones on semiconductor dies. An AMD Threadripper 3960X is chosen as a multi-die test vehicle for the M2HS to test thermal performance in a liquid cooled experimental flow loop. Experimental results in overclocked thermal stress tests are presented, achieving power draws of up to 75% higher than the nominal processor TDP. Further, compared to a recommended product pairing of the CPU serving as a baseline heat sink, the M2HS showed a 51% improvement in CPU power draw performance. When operating at nominal, non-overclocked conditions, reduced temperature operation of the CPU using M2HS solutions resulted in a CPU efficiency increase of up to 10% compared to the baseline heat sink, providing opportunities for reduced PUE in large scale data centers. The study concludes that the M2HS shows promise as a high effectiveness, implementation-friendly cooling solution for emerging multi-die processor assemblies.

Abstract:
Abstract In hydraulic systems, the presence of foreign material in the system oil accounts for the majority of system troubles due to mechanical wear of components, sticking of different parts etc. Therefore, it is essential to maintain an adequate cleanliness level of the fluid at all times through filtration. Mechanical filters are used for this purpose, to separate solid particles from the system oil. As a hydraulic filter gets accumulated with dirt throughout its service life, the pressure drop over the filter element increases. This pressure drop is typically used for determining the lifetime of a filter element: once a predetermined pressure drop at certain flow conditions has been reached, the filter has accumulated enough dirt to require servicing or replacement. In this paper, a correlation model has been developed to describe the effects of flow and fluid properties on the dirt holding capacity and the service life duration of a hydraulic filter. For this purpose, extensive laboratory tests have been carried out in order to measure the pressure drop development of a filter unit at different oil flow rates, viscosities and gravimetric contamination levels. The work in this paper has been done as part of the initial research for investigating the effects of different flow and fluid parameters on hydraulic filtration. The aim of the overall research project is to develop an IoT-enabled smart filter unit that could predict its remaining lifetime, and estimate the condition of the system oil as well.
