Historical and current usage of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS): A literature review
Abstract Background Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have uniquely useful chemical and physical properties, leading to their extensive industrial, commercial, and consumer applications since at least the 1950s. Some industries have publicly reported at least some degree of information regarding their PFAS use, while other industries have ...

The Impact on the Ozone Layer of a Potential Fleet of Civil Hypersonic Aircraft
Abstract The aeronautical community is currently researching technology that might lead to commercial hypersonic aircraft that would cruise at Mach 5–8 in the middle or upper stratosphere and would transfer passengers from London to New York or from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just a couple of hours.

Performance Comparison of Bow and Stern Rudder for High‐Speed Supercavitating Vehicles
To predict the hydrodynamic characteristics and supercavity shape of supercavitation flows, the numerical model including VOF, cavitation model, and turbulence models is presented and validated by a well‐established empirical correlation. The numerical method is then employed to simulate the high‐speed supercavitating vehicles with two different types ...

Spatial Kinetics Model of Supercavitating Vehicles Reflecting Conic‐Like Oscillation
A spatial kinetics model for supercavitating vehicles including the coupled motion of pitch, yaw, and rolling was presented. Mathematical simulations were performed to investigate dynamic performance of supercavitating vehicles. An intrinsic conic‐like oscillation in the motion of supercavitating vehicles was discovered.
