Bath Vibration During Open Eye Formation in a Physical Model of a Steelmaking Ladle
steel research international, EarlyView.Using a physical model, this study shows that vibration measurements reliably predict open eye size in steelmaking ladles, offering a practical alternative to visual monitoring. Vessel vibrations stabilize faster than the open eye, except at high frequencies near the bottom.

Do the public take action when a severe snow warning is issued?
Weather, EarlyView.Extreme weather events pose significant risks to the population, making timely warnings essential for preparedness. The UK Met Office’s National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS) has issued impact‐based alerts for over a decade, yet evaluations of their effectiveness remain limited.

International Dental Journal, EarlyView., 2020 Introduction Oral health is part of general health, and oral diseases share risk factors with several non‐communicable diseases. The World Dental Federation (FDI) has published a theoretical framework illustrating the complex interactions between the core elements of oral health (CEOHs): driving determinants, moderating factors, and general health and ...

Understanding lightning leaders [PDF]
a lightning flash is defined by the initiation and multiple development of leaders. But lightning leaders are still poorly understood. Since most of my atmospheric electricity has been focused on lightning that means that it has been devoted to ...

Lightning strike mapping for Peninsular Malaysia using artificial intelligence techniques [PDF]
, 2011 This research focuses on artificial intelligence (AI) techniques on mapping the lightning strike area in Peninsular Malaysia. Three AI techniques such as fuzzy logic, neural network and neuro-fuzzy techniques are selected to be explored in classifying ...

Trends in thunderstorm days, lightning activity, squalls and the environmental factors in Hong Kong
Weather, EarlyView.This study analyses trends in Hong Kong's convective weather using long‐term observer‐based and shorter‐term instrument‐based data. Annual thunderstorm days increased significantly by 1.9 days decade−1 in 1947–2024, notably in June–September, consistent with increasingly favourable warm‐season environments for thunderstorms.

Weather, EarlyView.The English language is a gargantuan, gluttonous beast. It has become extraordinary in its powers of assimilation – such that we rarely consider the origins of the words we use. In this paper, we will shed light on these origins, including the Pontic–Caspian steppe, the British Empire and, of course, a TV show.
