Forced Draught Impact on Externally Venting Flames: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind can significantly influence fire development and spread in urban and forest environments causing fatal consequences for the public, the first responders, and the environment. Wind‐driven fires can have a significant impact on structural fires as wind can increase the fire's intensity, development, and flame spread.

Influence of Adhesive Type on Heat Induced Delamination in Tension Loaded Shear Lap Cross‐Laminated Timber Samples Exposed to Radiant Heat Flux

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat induced delamination (HID) is a phenomenon in engineered wood products which may result in the detachment of the bonded timber lamellae before charring propagates to the bond line interphase. This study aims to correlate the thermal degradation of two 1‐c‐polyurethane adhesives at the microscale to the thermo‐hydro‐mechanical behaviour of

Experimental and Numerical Investigation on Ignition and Horizontal Flame Spread for Recycled Plastic Pellets

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fires in recycling facilities are known for producing noxious fumes, having high heat release rates (HRRs), being difficult to extinguish and causing significant devastation to business operations. This research aims to provide experimental data and numerical models from which performance‐based designs can be developed for recycling facilities.

Programmable crack dynamics engineering enables flexible strain sensors with high linearity

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
First‐decoupling theoretical framework of crack evolution elucidating the control methods, mechanistic insights, and structure‐activity relationships is established. Crack propagation from uncontrollable randomness systematically evolves into spatially ordered states.

Recent advances in multifunctional soft robots: A materials–structures–systems co‐design perspective for synergistic integration

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...
