Probing Different Approaches in Ultraviolet Radiation Personal Dosimetry – Ball Sports and Visiting Parks

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2022
Solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) continues to be a decisive influencing factor for skin health. Besides acute damage (e.g. erythema), chronic light damage is of particular relevance. Skin cancer can develop on the basis of this light damage.

Numerical Model and Experimental Validation of Composite Metal Foam in Protecting Carbon Steel Against Puncture

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The puncture prevention and energy absorption performance of composite metal foam (CMF) are studied experimentally and numerically for hazardous materials transportation protection. The numerical model implementing air within the CMF (nonhomogeneous model using fluid cavity technique) predicts puncture more accurately compared to the homogeneous CMF ...
