Numerical and experimental study on the partial melting of suspended ice crystals

Kongqi donglixue xuebao
When aircraft traverse ice crystal-laden clouds, ice crystals may be ingested into the engine with the airflow, leading to ice accretion that jeopardizes flight safety.

In situ characterization of the high pressure – high temperature melting curve of platinum

Scientific Reports, 2019
In this work, the melting line of platinum has been characterized both experimentally, using synchrotron X-ray diffraction in laser-heated diamond-anvil cells, and theoretically, using ab initio simulations.

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Unique staged temperature evolution in the freezing and melting of an ice crystal

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
Understanding the freezing and melting characteristics of ice crystals is crucial for investigating the icing mechanism in aircraft engines. To explore these processes, we build an experimental setup to examine the formation of suspended ice crystals and

Heat transfer enhancement for thermal energy storage using metal foams embedded within phase change materials (PCMs) [PDF]

, 2010
In this paper the experimental investigation on the solid/liquid phase change (melting and solidification) processes have been carried out. Paraffin wax RT58 is used as phase change material (PCM), in which metal foams are embedded to enhance the heat ...

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.
