Char Layer Thickness Evolution During Structural Timber Fire Experiment and Final Density Profile

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper evaluates several non‐destructive experimental methods for determining the char layer thickness and its density profile in structural timber samples exposed to standard ISO 834 fire curve experiments. Microwave echo pulse, ultrasonic echo pulse, X‐ray computed tomography, and resistance drilling were evaluated.

An Experimental Investigation on the Impact of Burner Height and Location on the Characteristics of Externally Venting Flames

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.

Influence of Adhesive Type on Heat Induced Delamination in Tension Loaded Shear Lap Cross‐Laminated Timber Samples Exposed to Radiant Heat Flux

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heat induced delamination (HID) is a phenomenon in engineered wood products which may result in the detachment of the bonded timber lamellae before charring propagates to the bond line interphase. This study aims to correlate the thermal degradation of two 1‐c‐polyurethane adhesives at the microscale to the thermo‐hydro‐mechanical behaviour of

Finalisation of the European Approach to Assess the Fire Performance of Facades—Brief Information on the Outcome of the Project

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research was conducted within the framework of project SI2.825082, funded by the European Commission—DG GROW. The project's objective was to finalise a European approach for assessing the fire performance of façades under medium and large fire exposure conditions.

Experimental Investigation of Burning Liquids in Reduced Oxygen

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effects of oxygen concentration on combustion of gases have been investigated on fundamental levels in several studies. However, the same type of fundamental studies has not been made for liquid or solid fuels due to complex relationships between flame structure and changing mass loss rates (MLR).

Decoding temporal miRNA signatures of semen under in vitro exposure for forensic time since deposition estimation using machine learning‐driven modeling

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This study develops a novel miRNA‐based framework for estimating the time since deposition of semen stains, combining small RNA sequencing with machine learning. Time‐dependent miRNA modules were identified using Mfuzz clustering and WGCNA, followed by a multi‐stage feature selection pipeline that reduced 261 candidate miRNAs to a minimal 7‐miRNA panel.

Expert Clinician Insights Into the Diagnosis and Treatment of Men With Antisocial and Borderline Personality Disorder: A Qualitative Study

Journal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Men with presentations consistent with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) are highly visible in community and forensic services. However, mis/underdiagnosis may be a consequence of their lower than expected engagement with mental health services, and when they do engage, systematised ...

Psychopathy traits and their link to emotion recognition impairments in conduct disorder

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neurocognitive models suggest that callous‐unemotional (CU) traits in youths with conduct disorder (CD) are linked to emotion recognition impairments, particularly in identifying distress emotions like fear and sadness. However, CD may be accompanied by grandiose‐manipulative (GM) and/or impulsive‐irresponsible (II) traits in ...

Posttraumatic stress, perceived hostile intention and reactions to peer provocation: A longitudinal study in US inner‐city youth

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
This longitudinal study examined how posttraumatic stress (PTS) affects adolescents' responses to peer provocation, using self‐reports from 2014 predominantly ethnic minority youth aged 12–14. Path analysis showed that higher PTS was linked to more aggression, greater perceived hostility, and a lower tendency to ignore provocation, especially among ...
