Study on the Power‐Frequency Arc Extinction Characteristics of Semi‐Closed Short‐Gap Device

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multi‐chamber arc‐extinguishing devices have a simple structure and excellent arc‐extinguishing performance; thus, they have attracted considerable attention as lightning protection devices. However, the structural parameters of different models of the aforementioned devices vary, leading to inconsistent protection levels; therefore, the arc ...

Conductivity Analysis and Thermoelectric Behaviour of Larch Standing Trees Under Lightning Currents: Role of Moisture Distribution and Carrier Motion

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The direct effects of lightning strikes on forest combustibles form the foundation for predicting lightning‐induced forest fires. Accurate assessment of lightning impact is hindered by limited knowledge of the conduction characteristics of standing larch trees.

Large‐Scale Applications of Plasma Technologies: Progresses and Challenges

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plasma technologies convert electrical power into energetic electrons, ions, reactive species, radiation and heat, thereby breaking through the bottleneck of purely thermal or chemical routes and bringing impressive changes to our world. This roadmap reviews the progress and challenges of plasma technologies from a large‐scale and application ...

Patient Safety and Organisational Accountability: Reassessing Criminal Liability Frameworks in Healthcare

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
Serious harm in healthcare often results from systemic failures, yet criminal accountability remains largely addressed through homicide law, gross negligence manslaughter and health‐and‐safety offences, frameworks that emphasise individual culpability and are ill‐suited to addressing organisational failings.

Evidence for positive population‐level responses but not individual performance of sycamore aphids under elevated CO2

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
The abundance and density of three common sycamore aphids increased under elevated CO2, although this was only statistically significant for Drepanosiphum platanoidis. The number of nymphs produced by individual D. platanoidis alates isolated in clip cages was not significantly affected, suggesting that population level response was not driven by ...

Modern Fire Safety Protocols in the Archeological Contexts: A New Tool for Studying the Health and Behavioral Effects of Fire Use in Semi‐Closed Spaces

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluates the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, integrated with controlled fire experiments, to investigate combustion processes in semi‐closed spaces. The framework enables systematic modeling of smoke dispersal, particulate transport, and hearth performance under variable morphologies and ventilation ...
