26 Δεκ 2019 · Figure 1. Top, the typical nonlinear relation between luminal pressure and area in large elastic arteries, explained by the progressive shift in load bearing from elastin to collagen fibers. Data translate into distensibility and pulse wave velocity (PWV) with the use of the Bramwell-Hill relation.
An important reason may be the plethora of methods and devices claiming to measure arterial stiffness in humans. This brief review provides a concise overview of methods in use, indicating strengths and weaknesses.
1 Μαΐ 2018 · Food waste. Food practices. Food behaviour. Systematic literature review. Food policy. Sustainable consumption. 1. Introduction. Globally, nearly one third of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted, equalling a total of 1.3. billion tonnes of food per year (Gustavsson et al., 2011).
Through a systematic, configurative literature review, this paper highlights the importance of choosing measurement methodologies according to the geographical area of interest, the food supply chain stage and the availability of data, which represent the three main pillars of food waste assessment.
How to Measure and Report a Food Loss and Waste Inventory. How do I measure food loss and waste? What if I want to express the weight of food loss and waste in other terms (e.g., environmental impact, nutritional content, or financial implications)? How do I report my food loss and waste inventory? How do I verify my food loss and waste inventory?
The scale and impact of food loss and waste (FLW) has attracted significant interest across sectors, leading to a relatively recent proliferation of publications. This article synthesizes existing knowledge in the literature with a focus on FLW measurement, drivers, and solutions.
