Pre‐failure behavior of continuous post‐tensioned and post‐grouted beam in case of tendon failure

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Grouted tendons are a common solution for long‐span bridge structures. The grout provides bond and corrosion protection for prestressing steel. However, if the grouting is defective, corrosion of the prestressing steel may initiate and eventually lead to tendon failure.

Queen Anne's Wardrobe: Fashion, Sartorial Politics, and the Representational Strategies of the Last Stuart Queen

open access: yesJournal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract The final Stuart monarch, Queen Anne, has often been overlooked in studies of visual and material culture, particularly of fashion and dress. This article is the first to undertake a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the wardrobe accounts of Queen Anne, situating her consumption within the context of the eighteenth‐century fashion ...

Effect of Pressure, Environment Temperature, Jet Velocity and Nitrogen Dilution on the Liftoff Characteristics of a N2-in-H2 Jet Flame in a Vitiated Co-flow

open access: yesEurasian Chemico-Technological Journal, 2014
The CO2 emission prevention advantage of generating power with high hydrogen content fuels using gas turbines motivates an improved understanding of the ignition behavior of hydrogen in premixed and partially premixed environments.

Thorncliffe Formation: A proglacial to subglacial lacustrine basin sequence, Greater Toronto Region, Canada

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

Evaluation of the Flame Lift-off Length in Diesel Spray Combustion Based on Flame Extinction

open access: yesJournal of Thermal Science and Technology, 2010
The interaction of spray and combustion processes forms a complex system of physical phenomena undergoing in IC engines. Studying this interaction is important to determine strategies for simultaneously reducing soot and NOx emissions from diesel engines.

Assessment of implementation variants of conditional scalar dissipation rate in LES-CMC simulation of auto-ignition of hydrogen jet

open access: yesArchives of Mechanics, 2013
In this paper the large eddy simulation (LES) and conditional moment closure (CMC) combustion model have been applied for modelling of auto-ignition of hydrogen jet issuing into a hot ambient co-flow.

Making with the Trouble: Un/Enfolding Posthuman Participants with Young People in Creative Post‐Qualitative Research

open access: yesInternational Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores how ‘what matters’ can surface in multisensory arts‐informed projects as ways for young people to survive and stay with gender and sexuality troubles that are always more than theirs. Situated in an ex‐mining post‐industrial locale, we make an agential cut in a longitudinal research and engagement project called Unboxing ...

An efficient flamelet progress-variable method for modeling non-premixed flames in weak electric fields

open access: yes, 2017
Combustion stabilization and enhancement of the flammability limits are mandatory objectives to improve nowadays combustion chambers. At this purpose, the use of an electric field in the flame region provides a solution which is, at the same time, easy ...

Growth and age differences between two male alternative reproductive tactics in the plainfin midshipman

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The plainfin midshipman (Porichthys notatus Girard, 1854) is a toadfish with two distinct reproductive male tactics: ‘guarder males’ and ‘sneaker males’. These two tactics are anatomically, physiologically and behaviourally distinct from one another at sexual maturity, but it remained unclear whether these two male types remain fixed or ...

Investigation of the Effects of Plasma Discharges on Methane Decomposition for Combustion Enhancement of a Lean Flame

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
The present work focuses on the impact of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuators (PAs) on non-premixed lifted flame stabilization in a methane CH4-air Bunsen burner. Two coaxial DBD-PA configurations are considered.
