In Situ Photopolymerization of Smectic B Liquid‐Crystalline Electrolytes from Mesogenic Phosphate–Diacrylate/Ionic Liquid Complexes for High‐Performance Soft Ionic Actuators

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A flexible liquid‐crystalline electrolyte membrane via in situ photopolymerization of a phosphate‐functionalized mesogen, ionic liquid, and diacrylate monomer is developed. The resulting smectic B (SmB)‐phase structure enables 2D ion transport with high conductivity (10−4 S cm−1).

The influence of small mass loss rate peaks on the rate of spread of predictive flame spread simulations: A theoretical study

Fire Safety Journal
Peaks in the mass loss rate (MLR) curve derived from thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) are commonly used to infer the pyrolysis rates of solid fuels. While the main peaks are often modelled, smaller MLR fluctuations are typically neglected, leading to discrepancies between models and experiments.

Incorporating finite-rate chemistry effects in analytical model of counterflow flame spread

Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract Classical thermal theory of steady counterflow flame propagation is extended by allowing for the finite-rate of the heat release in the flame edge and by introducing the dependence of the flame edge temperature on the opposed flow velocity.
