Experimental and Numerical Study on the Plasma-Laser-Induced Ignition of Strut Stabilizer at Different Locations

open access: yesAerospace
The minimum ignition equivalence ratio of the strut stabilizer is an important parameter in the design of integrated afterburners. The ignition location significantly affects the ignition equivalence ratio and flame propagation, and therefore, it should ...

Influence of Particle Size, Moisture, and Cloud Density on Wood Dust Ignition

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
The ignition and combustion of particle clouds are strongly affected by particle interactions. This study uses spectroscopy to examine effects of particle size, water content, and cloud density. Results show ignition delay rises with larger size and density, whereas combustion duration depends mainly on water and density due to moisture‐driven ...

Box–Behnken optimization and ANN‐ANFIS integrated modelling for transesterification using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were

A novel bubbling fluid bed reactor for the autothermal pyrolysis of waste plastics

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract A new pilot‐scale fluidized bed reactor operated under continuous conditions was developed and tested for the thermal pyrolysis of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE). The study focused on assessing the reliability and operability of the system under different operating conditions (400–550°C), while monitoring mass and energy balances, product ...

A perspective on parsimonious hybrid models for online use: Augmenting fundamental models with ARIMA disturbances

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Hybrid models (HMs) combine fundamental model (FM) equations with empirical components. These models can lead to improved predictions because they reduce process/model mismatch and can account for phenomena that are not considered in the FM equations.

AI‐Enhanced Laser Manufacturing: A Social Life Cycle Perspective From the White Goods Industry

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable manufacturing transitions require companies to demonstrate not only environmental and economic benefits, but also measurable advances in corporate social responsibility (CSR). Therefore, we propose using a guideline‐based Social Life Cycle Assessment (S‐LCA) aligned with UNEP (2020) and ISO 14075 (2024) to evaluate the social ...

Shock wave propagation characteristics of aluminum‐containing explosive in corrugated steel‐lined tunnel

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Aluminum‐enhanced afterburning renders AE explosives more hazardous than conventional ones. Corrugated steel linings reduce far‐field AE blast overpressure by ~50% through wave reflection and dissipation. The developed model accurately predicts peak pressure (<10% error) and arrival time (<3% error), supporting protective design.

One‐Step Synthesis of Si–Graphene Heterostructures via in‐Flight Gas‐Phase Mixing for High‐Capacity Silicon‐Rich Anodes

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A one‐step gas‐phase synthesis directly assembles amorphous Si nanoparticles with few‐layer graphene heterostructures via in‐flight mixing. Compositions with only 15 wt.% FLG deliver ~2800 mAh g−1 (Si + FLG) at 0.05 C and retain ~1400 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles at a high cycling rate of 1 C, enabled by a percolated, strain‐buffering graphene network that
