This study develops sustainable MgO–C refractories using recycled materials and eco‐friendly fructose–tannin binders. The enhanced performance of citric acid as a cross‐linker and functional additives on mechanical and thermomechanical properties was examined. Characterization included strength tests, immersion trials, and microstructural and inclusion

Revisiting Tide‐Induced Near‐Field Mixing in the Abyssal Ocean
Vertical two‐dimensional numerical experiments incorporating Garrett‐Munk (GM) internal waves are conducted to investigate tide‐induced near‐field mixing over a finite‐amplitude sinusoidal seafloor, conventionally attributed to the breaking of high ...

Near-inertial ocean response to a typhoon on a continental slope in the Northern South China Sea
Typhoons are strong natural events that significantly influence the marine environment. In 2018, Typhoon Mangkhut traveled over a moored station with a depth ~1900 m on continental slope in the northern South China Sea, the near-inertial oceanic ...

The characteristics of tides and their effects on the general circulation of the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
The effects of tides on the Mediterranean Sea's general circulation, with a particular focus on the horizontal and vertical currents, are investigated using twin simulations with and without tides. Amplitudes of tides in the region are typically low, but

On the Response of Zhejiang Coastal Waters to 12 Typhoons from 2011 to 2015
Based on the hybrid coordinate ocean model (HYCOM) reanalysis data, the dynamical and thermal response of Zhejiang coastal waters to 12 typhoons from 2011 to 2015 was studied, and the relationship between the oceanic response and typhoon characteristics ...

Quasi-geostrophic modes in the Earth's fluid core with an outer stably stratified layer [PDF]
Seismic waves sensitive to the outermost part of the Earth's liquid core seem to be affected by a stably stratified layer at the core-mantle boundary.

Numerical Modeling of Tank Cars Carrying Hazardous Materials With and Without Composite Metal Foam
Large‐scale puncture models consisting of hazardous materials (HAZMATs) tank car with protective steel–steel composite metal foam (S–S CMF) are solved numerically. Tank car plate with added 10.91–13.33 mm thick S–S CMF layer does not puncture. Protective S–S CMF absorbs impact energy, reduces plate deformation, and prevents shear bands formation ...

Response of near-inertial energy to a supercritical tropical cyclone and jet in the South China Sea: modelling study [PDF]
We used a well-validated three-dimensional ocean model to investigate the process of energetic response of near-inertial oscillations (NIOs) to a tropical cyclone (TC) and strong background jet in the South China Sea (SCS). We found that the NIO and near-

A simple model of ultrasound propagation in a cavitating liquid. Part II: Primary Bjerknes force and bubble structures [PDF]
In a companion paper, a reduced model for propagation of acoustic waves in a cloud of inertial cavitation bubbles was proposed. The wave attenuation was calculated directly from the energy dissipated by a single bubble, the latter being estimated ...

Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...
