Effects of magnetic fields on the propagation of nuclear flames in magnetic white dwarfs

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate effects of the magnetic field on the propagation of laminar flames of nuclear reactions taking place in white dwarfs (WDs) with the mass close to the Chandrasekhar limit.

The influence of turbulence on the structure and propagation of enclosed flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 1966
Although it has long been established that burning rates can be appreciably increased by turbulence, the actual extent of this increase and the precise mechanism involved are still far from clear.

Advanced Separators for Liquid and Quasi‐Solid Lithium Rechargeable Batteries: Design and Development

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review traces the evolution of lithium‐ion battery separators from passive barriers to multifunctional components central to cell safety and performance. Polymer‐ceramic hybrids, nanofiber architectures, and bio‐derived membranes deliver ionic conductivities above 3 mS cm−1, thermal stability beyond 200 °C, and effective suppression of lithium ...

Effects of thermal expansion, strain rate, and gravity force on the steady propagation of a premixed flame in semi-closed channels

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
The flame dynamics of steady propagation of a premixed flame in semi-closed channels is investigated. The hydrodynamic model takes into account impacts of channel width, thermal expansion, straining effect, and downward gravity force on the flame front ...

Nonlinear equation for curved stationary flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
A nonlinear equation describing curved stationary flames with arbitrary gas expansion $\theta = \rho_{{\rm fuel}}/\rho_{{\rm burnt}}$, subject to the Landau-Darrieus instability, is obtained in a closed form without an assumption of weak nonlinearity. It

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.
