A Study on Preventing Thermal Runaway of Contaminated Ammonium Nitrate Prill in Bulk Storage

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of a contaminated region of ammonium nitrate prill undergoing exothermic decomposition, producing gases containing NOx. The interstitial flow of these heated gases rapidly raises the temperature of ammonium nitrate along the flow path.

Active lamp pulse driver circuit [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
A flashlamp drive circuit is described which uses an unsaturated transistor as a current mode switch to periodically subject a partially ionized gaseous laser excitation flashlamp to a stable, rectangular pulse of current from an incomplete discharge of ...

A Multifunctional Bioactive Nanoscale Coating Deposited by Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Polymerization of Peppermint Essential Oil

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Atmospheric plasma polymerization transforms peppermint essential oil into ultrathin, substrate‐independent bioactive coatings with antioxidant, contact‐active antibacterial, and immunomodulatory functions. The coating disrupts Gram‐negative pathogens, potentiates prophylactic antibiotics, suppresses pro‐inflammatory signaling, and promotes M2 ...

A Novel Approach to Power Circuit Breaker Design for Replacement of SF6

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2004
This contribution explores the role of PTFE ablation in enhancing current interruption for various background gases in high voltage circuit breakers. An assessment of the current interruption capability has been made in terms of the arcing duration and ...

Type Ia supernovae from exploding oxygen-neon white dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The progenitor problem of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is still unsolved. Most of these events are thought to be explosions of carbon-oxygen (CO) white dwarfs (WDs), but for many of the explosion scenarios, particularly those involving the externally ...

Recycling End‐of‐Life Solid Oxide Cell Interconnect Assemblies into Commercial‐Grade AISI 304 Stainless Steels

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
This study validates a recycling pathway for converting interconnect assemblies from end‐of‐life SOC stacks into commercial‐grade AISI 304 steels. Using scrap‐based steelmaking operations, austenitic cast steels with <4.0% δ‐ferrite are successfully produced.

With a Great Story Comes Great Responsibility: Role of Narrative in Leadership Development

open access: yesNew Directions for Student Leadership, Volume 2025, Issue 185, Page 81-87, Spring 2025.
ABSTRACT Comic books reside uniquely within American culture. Historians have contended comics are more than just sequential artwork mixed with engaging stories, but rather, a framework by which the generations make sense of who they are. These stories are a reflection of cultural conscience; a lens through which we can view the world and a mirror ...

Investigation of hydrogen-air ignition sensitized by nitric oxide and by nitrogen dioxide [PDF]

open access: yes
The sensitization of stoichiometric hydrogen-air ignition by NO, NO2 and a mixture of NO and NO2 was investigated behind reflected shock waves in a shock tube. Induction times were measured in pressure range 0.27 to 2.0 atm, temperature range 800 to 1500

Continuous Forest Fire Propagation in a Local Small World Network Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper presents the development of a new continuous forest fire model implemented as a weighted local small-world network approach. This new approach was designed to simulate fire patterns in real, heterogeneous landscapes.

Threshold Currents of Vacuum Arcs With Tungsten and Copper Cathodes

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of an experimental study aimed at determining the threshold current for triggering a vacuum arc discharge, the probability of arc ignition and the average arc operation time depending on the current for tungsten and copper electrodes.
