Strong Lateral Confinement of Hydrophilic Silica Nanoparticles on Mg‐Al Layered Double Hydroxides Nanoflakes for Enhanced Thermal Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A nanostructured, naturally flame‐retardant, and non‐toxic inorganic composite is introduced, which is laterally associated with silica nanoparticles to induce the restacking of the LDH lamella structure, thereby serving as an efficient thermal insulator.

Experimental studies on sidewall pool fire for assessing green façades hazard

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2023
Fire hazard assessment on green façade used to be carried out by a window plume. Large amount of fuel was burnt. A small pool fire placed adjacent to the façade can give similar effect on assessing the hazardous consequences.

LFA: A Lattice Fourier Analyzer for Quantitative In Situ EC‐STM of Adsorbate–Substrate Superstructures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Although electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy provides atomic‐scale access to electrified interfaces, quantitative in situ and operando investigations suffer from drift‐induced distortions. This work introduces the Lattice Fourier Analyzer (LFA), which employs substrate‐anchored affine drift correction in reciprocal space to recover precise ...

Correlation of Projected Flame Height for Impinging Horizontal Jet Flames

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions
Horizontal jet flame is said to be among the most dangerous types of fire considering a possible impingement effect on nearby facilities. Numerous studies have been conducted and assessed for geometrical flame features of jet flames as it imposed dangers where nearby equipment is included. However, data on flame height are often missing considering the

Water‐Stable Paper‐Based Laser‐Induced Graphene With Asymmetric Water Adhesion and Wettability

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Paper‐based electronics are attractive for sustainable and disposable devices, but often fail in wet environments. By introducing Parafilm into cellulose paper combined with laser conversion, two graphene surfaces with different water interactions are created.

Performance analysis of a self-protection system for vehicles in case of WUI fire entrapment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Sheltering inside a civilian vehicle has proved to be a high risk strategy in case of wildfire entrapment. Survival is by no means guaranteed, especially in moderate to high-intensity wildfires.

Root‐Stimulated Movements in Mimosa Pudica for Biohybrid Robotic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that thermal and electrical stimulation of Mimosa pudica root induces movement of the petiole and pinnules without direct stimulation of the aerial organs, thereby enabling a plant‐based robotic gripper and providing a foundation for the development of intelligent and sustainable systems.
