Exploration, EarlyView.Developing strong and sustainable materials is essential for reducing reliance on metals and lowering carbon emissions. Inspired by how plants naturally harden their cell walls, we created a rapid process that transforms bamboo into an ultra‐hard structural material by rebuilding lignin‐like networks within its structure.

Ignition delay time correlations for distillate fuels
, 2017 Ignition delay times were measured behind reflected shock waves in a shock tube for a wide variety of distillate fuels over a range of temperatures, pressures and mixtures. The fuels studied include: jet fuels (JP-5, JP-8, and Jet A), rocket propellants (

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

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In response to growing energy conservation and carbon neutrality efforts, façade systems incorporating wooden materials have attracted increasing attention, which in turn raises concerns about their combustibility. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of flame spread along cedar façades.

Computational studies on HCCI engines. [PDF]
, 2010 Emission legislation is changing in an effort to reduce exhaust emissions from the IC engines. Research and development has been focused on improving both spark-ignition and compression ignition engines to make them more efficient.

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fire sources in actual compartment fires exhibit a predominantly uneven spatial distribution. In this context, the impact of the height and location of the fire source, as well as the heat release rate (HRR) of the fire, on the thermal characteristics of Externally Venting Flames (EVF) is experimentally investigated.
