Numerical Exploration of Thermal Shock Resistance in MgO–C Refractories
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A mesostructure‐resolved numerical framework is developed to evaluate the thermal shock resistance of MgO–C refractories. By modeling interface debonding under rapid temperature changes and introducing a modified thermal shock parameter that accounts for mesocracks, the study shows how graphite content and aggregate size influence thermal shock ...

Design and fabrication of side-channel photonic crystal fiber
2012 Photonics Global Conference (PGC), 2012 In this work we propose a new design of photonic crystal fiber with a side channel in the cladding region. The advantage of this fiber design is to provide easy access to the fiber core for applications requiring real-time measurement and longer interactions with light, such as microfluidic devices and solution-based optical sensors.
