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

Bubbly Jet Impingement in Different Liquids
An experimental setup for the study of bubbly jets collision in microgravity has been designed. On ground preliminary results are presented in order to be compared with those obtained in a near future in low gravity conditions. The opposed-jet configuration is used with the objective to force the collision of two jets, with an impact angle between them

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall
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.

Mist Flow Visualization for Round Jets in Aerosol Jet Printing
With the microdroplets of water serving as light scattering particles, the mist flow patterns of round micro-jets can be visualized using the Aerosol Jet(R) direct-write system. The visualization images show that the laminar mist jet appears to extend to

Optical Skyrmions with Tunable or Reconfigurable Topology Using Spin‐Decoupled Metaoptics
The work introduces advanced optical elements capable of generating and dynamically reconfiguring complex light patterns known as optical skyrmions. By precisely shaping light polarization at the nanoscale, a single engineered metasurface can generate and manipulate robust and tunable polarization textures in an efficient and scalable way.

Study of lubricant jet flow phenomena in spur gears: Out of mesh condition [PDF]
The penetration depth onto the tooth flank of a jet of oil at different velocities pointed at the pitch line on the outgoing side of mesh was determined. The analysis determines the impingement depth for both the gear and the pinion.
