Design, Fabrication, and Evaluation of Hybrid Polycaprolactone/Graphene Scaffold Based on Additive Manufacturing and Electrospinning

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
A multi‐scale and multi‐material PCL/graphene scaffold was successfully fabricated by integrating extrusion‐based AM and solution electrospinning. The process was optimized using an image‐based method, achieving 87% fiber alignment with the intended orientation.

Process safety at anaerobic digestion sites and its workplace impact: A rapid review

Process Safety Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Anaerobic digestion (AD) is important for the developing green/circular economy and is widely used to process different organic wastes and to capture emitted methane. This greenhouse gas can then be used to generate energy. There are over 700 operational AD facilities across the United Kingdom, excluding water treatment plants, a number ...

Assessing the completeness of safeguard identification in hazards and operability (HAZOP) studies for oil and gas facilities as a quality metric: An Indonesian case study

Process Safety Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Qualitative risk assessments, such as hazard and operability studies (HAZOP), are critical for identifying hazards and implementing risk mitigation strategies in industrial processes. One key yet often overlooked measure of HAZOP quality is the completeness of safeguard identification, which can serve as a practical key result indicator (KRI).

Observations of a frontal–trough merger over a wildfire, Queensland, Australia

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Observations are presented of the meteorology of a frontal–trough merger in subtropical Australia which impacted a wildfire. An elevated nocturnal mixed layer above approx. 2500 m with increasing moisture with height was identified as the source of instability that resulted in the formation of elevated storms along a 300‐km frontal–trough boundary ...

Rethinking the Spanish plume: An airstream analysis challenges the canonical conceptual model

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional airstream model showing the history of air‐parcel trajectories arriving at Nottingham on 1200 UTC 1 July 2015 at 950, 850, 650 and 250 hPa, respectively. Four different airstreams are illustrated, none of which can be easily called the Spanish‐plume airstream.

Conceptualizing Resilience, Sustainability and Smartness for Building Fire Risk Management

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resilience, sustainability, and smartness (ReSuSm) within the building construction sector impact, or are impacted by building fires in one way or another. Hence, consideration of ReSuSm for building fire risk management (BFRM) is imperative to enhance safety and mitigate adverse impacts.
