Stratigraphic evidence for modern‐like glacier extents in south‐central Alaska within the last glacial period (MIS 3)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The last (Wisconsinan) glacial period was punctuated in North America by two glacial maxima, known as the Early and Late Wisconsinan glaciations. In Alaska, these maxima and their subsequent retreats have been the object of dating efforts to reconstruct local climatic events and compare them to global trends.

Thorncliffe Formation: A proglacial to subglacial lacustrine basin sequence, Greater Toronto Region, Canada

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

Numerical Investigation on the Effect of Passive Jet Control on the Performance of a Vortex Induced Vibration Energy Harvester System

open access: yesEnergies
The present study investigates the effect of the passive jet control system on the performance of a vibration energy harvester system (VIVEHS). The shape of a bluff body plays a crucial role in determining the vortex shedding mechanism, while the passive

Blow-off mechanisms of turbulent premixed bluff-body stabilised flames operated with vapourised kerosene fuels

open access: yesProceedings of the Combustion Institute, 2020
The lean blow-off (LBO) behaviour of unconfined lean premixed bluff-body stabilised flames with various fuels was investigated. Methane and vapourised ethanol, heptane, Jet-A, and an alternative alcohol-derived kerosene (Gevo) were used.

Growth and age differences between two male alternative reproductive tactics in the plainfin midshipman

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The plainfin midshipman (Porichthys notatus Girard, 1854) is a toadfish with two distinct reproductive male tactics: ‘guarder males’ and ‘sneaker males’. These two tactics are anatomically, physiologically and behaviourally distinct from one another at sexual maturity, but it remained unclear whether these two male types remain fixed or ...

Producer gas stove: Design, fabrication, and evaluation of thermal performance

open access: yesJournal of King Saud University: Engineering Sciences
Traditional biomass stoves are widely used for cooking purposes in developing countries due to their simple construction. However, the problems of low thermal efficiency, large feedstock consumption, and high pollutant emissions are encountered in the ...

Effect of sintering cycle on the strength and translucency of multilayered zirconia

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose A newly introduced sintering protocol promises to offer higher translucency while not significantly compromising the flexural strength of the material. However, the effect of the novel sintering protocol has not been thoroughly validated.
