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

Fire 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

FlexMat, 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.

Flame propagation limit and consumption speed of hydrogen-air flame in narrow channels

This work presents a methodology for studying hydrogen-air propagation limits and flame consumption speeds in narrow Hele-Shaw channels using 2D Lattice Boltzmann simulations and experimental analysis. Experiments focused on flame propagation along the channel face, while simulations modeled propagation within the submillimetric gap h, reducing ...

Advanced Functional Materials for Marine Energy Utilization

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Marine renewable energy is an important future clean energy supply. We construct and sort out the material system for marine energy capture and conversion, transmission, storage, and utilization for the first time. ABSTRACT Several features of marine energy, including large reserves, sustainable utilization, environmental friendliness, make it a ...

Nutritional characterization of Cusco green tea and its synergistic effect with omega‐3 on metabolic and cognitive dysfunctions in obese rats

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Obesity and its metabolic complications, such as insulin resistance and cognitive decline, remain a global health challenge. Green tea (Camelia sinensis) and ω‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are recognized for their antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties.

A Shock‐Tube Study of the HCl + M →$\to $ H + Cl + M (M = Ar) Rate Constant Using HCl Laser Absorption Near 3.3 µm

International Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrogen chlorine (HCl) is an important combustion intermediate during plastic (municipal waste) and composite propellant (aerospace) combustion, but the understanding of its high‐temperature chemistry is still evolving. In this study, the pyrolysis of 0.5% HCl in Ar was investigated behind reflected shock waves in a shock tube at temperatures

Effect of HBr on Explosion Limits of Stoichiometric Hydrogen‐oxygen Mixture

International Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This work, based on numerical simulations, discusses the effect of HBr as an inhibitor on the explosion limit of stoichiometric hydrogen‐oxygen gas mixture in a closed spherical vessel. The numerical simulation solves the complete governing equations for mass, momentum, species and energy.
