6 The ubiquitous presence of humidity in ambient air and its variation makes the development of humidity-responsive actuators both appealing and of importance.
Therefore, it can be used for development of the humidity sensor.
This paper reports the work on the development of novel humidity sensors using long period grating (LPG) technology in an optical fibre.
The research results indicate that the coupled hygro-thermal model constructed based on the micro-pore structure evolution can accurately predict the time-dependent development of temperature and humidity field inside the early-age concrete.
The climates of these areas contribute to the development of parasitic infections because humidity and high temperatures provide the necessary conditions for vector and protozoan growth [ 1].
High humidity favours development of the great majority of leaf and fruit diseases caused by fungi and bacteria.
Hourly measurements depended on the development of modern electrical approaches to humidity determination.
Figure 21 Development of average indicator values for humidity in Wetzlar and Giessen (weighted) between 1985 and 2010.
The development of free shrinkage and interior humidity of LSECC and traditional ECC under plastic film sealed and drying conditions were experimentally measured.
Aside from the effect on temperature, UHIs can produce secondary effects on local meteorology, including the altering of local wind patterns, the development of clouds and fog, the humidity, and the rates of precipitation.
