Effect of polymeric additives on ignition, combustion and flame characteristics and soot deposits of crude oil droplets [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Many oil fires have resulted from the crude oil train derailments in recent years. Given the importance of crude oil shipping by rail to the energy security of the US, it is important to consider various methods that will decrease the likelihood of crude oil catching fire in case of a crude oil derailment.

Non-linear simulations of combustion instabilities with a quasi-1D Navier-Stokes code [PDF]
, 2010 As lean premixed combustion systems are more susceptible to combustion instabilities than non-premixed systems, there is an increasing demand for improved numerical design tools that can predict the occurrence of combustion instabilities with high accuracy.

Defects in Inorganic Mechanoluminescent Phosphors: Insights and Impacts
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Mechanoluminescence is attracting more attention recently, and defect dominates mechanoluminescence performances. Investigating how defects work in the mechanoluminescence process is crucial for elucidating its complex luminescence mechanism. This review aims to emphasize the fundamental role of defects in mechanoluminescence, which offers an ...

An optimization approach to kinetic model reduction for combustion chemistry [PDF]
, 2013 Model reduction methods are relevant when the computation time of a full convection-diffusion-reaction simulation based on detailed chemical reaction mechanisms is too large. In this article, we review a model reduction approach based on optimization of trajectories and show its applicability to realistic combustion models.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Progestin drugs are loaded into a mesoporous silicon dioxide host by melt‐infiltration. Drugs that decompose at or close to their melting point can be loaded by the addition of cholesterol, which acts as a melting point suppressor. High mass loading of the drug is achieved, and dissolution of the composite is controlled by the nanoscale properties of ...
