Illuminating the Path of Rearrangement: Visible Light‐Driven Pd‐Catalyzed Substituted Olefins Synthesis

Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Accepted Article.
Pd‐catalyzed reactions are among the most straightforward and efficient methods to proficiently build Csp2‐Csp2 bonds. Nevertheless, thermal activation remains mandatory in most cases, which may decrease the compatibility with sensitive functional groups.

Lightning Protection Methods for Wind Turbine Blades: An Alternative Approach

Applied Sciences, 2020
Lightning strikes happens in a fraction of time, where they can transfer huge amounts of charge and high currents in a single strike. The chances for a structure to be struck by lightning increases as the height increases; thus, tall structures are more ...

Upward lightning at wind turbines: Risk assessment from larger-scale meteorology [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Upward lightning (UL) has become an increasingly important threat to wind turbines as ever more of them are being installed for renewably producing electricity. The taller the wind turbine the higher the risk that the type of lightning striking the man-made structure is UL. UL can be much more destructive than downward lightning due to its long lasting
