, 1972 Vented hydrogen is converted into water by mixing hydrogen with sufficient air to ensure that a flame cannot be maintained and then passing it through a reactor containing palladium catalyst; reaction takes place at relatively low temperature. Device may

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

‘Escaping Isn't for Everyone’: Kurdish Smugglers’ Navigational Tactics at Checkpoints in Iran
Development and Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article examines how Kurdish smugglers navigate state and insurgent checkpoints in the borderlands of western Iran. Drawing on ethnographic research, it analyses two key navigational tactics: persin, a form of negotiated passage involving transaction, recognition and the contingent toleration of authority; and jimi, rendered here as ...

Enhanced Fire Retardancy of Vinyl Ester Resins by Combination of Additives [PDF]
, 2007 In pursuit of fire-retardant materials, vinyl ester resins were combined with commercially available fire retardants at lower loadings than that at which they are usually effective when used alone.

Variable Sr Diffusion and Implications for Rb–Sr Biotite Geochronology
Journal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The rubidium–strontium (Rb–Sr) system has a long pedigree as a geochronological tool that relies on the application of an isochron approach. In particular, biotite contains strongly radiogenic Rb–Sr isotopes, and thus can yield meaningful crystallisation or cooling ages via this approach. However, the response of the Rb–Sr system in biotite to

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding the pressure of emplacement of granitic intrusions is crucial to understanding the exhumation history of plutons and constraining the tectonic setting of magma emplacement. However, P–T and geochronological constraints from exhumed plutons are often characterized by large uncertainties, especially in shallow crustal settings with

Chemical kinetic analysis of hydrogen-air ignition and reaction times [PDF]
An anaytical study of hydrogen air kinetics was performed. Calculations were made over a range of pressure from 0.2 to 4.0 atm, temperatures from 850 to 2000 K, and mixture equivalence ratios from 0.2 to 2.0.
