Advances in CALIPSO (IIR) cirrus cloud property retrievals – Part 2: Global estimates of the fraction of cirrus clouds affected by homogeneous ice nucleation [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Cirrus clouds can form through two ice nucleation pathways (homo- and heterogeneous ice nucleation; henceforth hom and het, respectively) that result in very different cloud physical and radiative properties.

Finite element simulation of barge impact into a rigid wall

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2014
The forces and locations of inland barge impacts currently control the design specifications for lock walls. This has resulted in a significant increase in the final construction costs of these walls.

Modeling thermo-mechanical fatigue for rolling die under continuous casting process

open access: yesResults in Engineering
In the continuous casting process, the rolling die is exposed to non-steady stress conditions that can initiate thermo-mechanical fatigue damage. Understanding the rolling die failure mechanism is essential in metal-forming industries.
