The development of an enhanced autoignition sub-model for use in CFD combustion simulations

open access: yes, 2006
Includes bibliographical references.With the ever increasing pressure to manufacture more efficient engines that produce lowerexhaust emissions, there is a corresponding need for a greater understanding of the combustion processes within these engines ...

Poseidon's Sanctuary at Samikon—The Discovery of an Ancient Temple Through an Integrated Geophysical and Geoarchaeological Survey Approach for Lagoonal and Swampy Environments

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Below the classical fortress of Samikon at the coast of the western Peloponnese, ancient writer Strabo mentioned a sanctuary of Poseidon which served as the centre of the religious association of the Triphylian cities. In this paper, we describe the discovery and investigation of a building structure by means of geophysical and ...

Life cycle assessment of biodiesel synthesis from waste cooking oil using bifunctional heterogeneous catalyst

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The development of renewable energy sources is important in order to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Waste cooking oil (WCO) is a promising feedstock for biodiesel production through transesterification. Heterogeneous bifunctional catalysts offer a sustainable alternative to conventional homogeneous bases such ...

Operationalizing BioSSbD: A safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework for biorefineries

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biorefineries are central to the transition toward a circular bioeconomy; however, their increasing scale and technological heterogeneity, and the integration of biological, chemical, and thermochemical processes introduce complex challenges related to safety, sustainability, and operational reliability. Existing Safe‐and‐Sustainable‐by‐Design

Abnormal combustion - methanol versus gasoline

open access: yes, 1988
Includes bibliographical references.The maximum efficiency of conventional gasoline engines is largely determined by the compression ratio, and this is limited by the onset of kno8k. The maximum cylinder size is similarly constrained.

Plasma propellant interactions in an electrothermal-chemical gun [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This Thesis covers work conducted to understand the mechanisms underpinning the operation of the electrothermal-chemical gun. The initial formation of plasma from electrically exploding wires, through to the development of plasma venting from the ...

Laser-Stimulated Ignition in a Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition Engine

open access: yes, 2004
A laser-induced spark was generated inside the combustion chamber of a reciprocating engine running in Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) mode to investigate the influence of the plasma on combustion performance.

Creating space(s) for learning in prison: Developing an andragogical framework

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Learning in prison is too often excluded from wider discussions of educational experiences, processes and impact. This paper proposes, for the first time, an iterative andragogical framework to conceptualise learning spaces within prison contexts.
