Aggregation‐induced enhanced emission for quantification of recycled content in automotive plastics
Polymer International, EarlyView.Quantifying recycled content in four automotive plastics using aggregation‐induced enhanced emission showed that performance was highly dependent on both polymer and additive chemistries. Abstract The use of plastics in the automotive industry is increasing due to their versatility, light weight and affordability.

The optical characterisation of spray and soot formation in a diesel engine [PDF]
, 2010 Laser sheet drop-sizing (LSD) measurements of a Diesel spray and simultaneous laser induced incandescence/Mie scattering measurements of soot have been performed in an optically accessible, common rail, 1.9 litre, turbo-charged, direct injection Diesel ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Optimizing PWM performance requires not only appropriate duty cycle selection, but also careful choice of adjuvant formulation tailored to each nozzle type. Drift control agents increased droplet size and reduced fine droplets, mitigating PWM‐induced variability. Decreasing the duty cycle consistently narrowed the spray angle.

Thermal and Catalytic Cracking of JP-10 for Pulse Detonation Engine Applications [PDF]
, 2002 Practical air-breathing pulse detonation engines (PDE) will be based on storable liquid hydrocarbon fuels such as JP-10 or Jet A. However, such fuels are not optimal for PDE operation due to the high energy input required for direct initiation of a ...

Apparatus for establishing flow of a fluid mass having a known velocity [PDF]
, 1974 An apparatus for establishing a flow of fluid mass, such as gas, having a known velocity is introduced. The apparatus is characterized by an hermetically sealed chamber conforming to a closed-loop configuration and including a throat and a plurality of ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Assessing spatial and temporal variability of clogging in gravel‐bed rivers is challenging because field methods typically rely on labor‐intensive measurements of fine‐sediment content, porosity, or hydraulic conductivity. Clogging is also highly dynamic, driven by hydro‐sedimentary conditions; yet few studies have examined it at large scales ...

Design of hydraulic output Stirling engine [PDF]
A hydraulic output system for the RE-1000 free piston stirling engine (FPSE) was designed. The hydraulic output system can be readily integrated with the existing hot section of RE-1000 FPSE.
