Pseudonyms, Propaganda, and Prints: The Life and Political Caricatures of William Dent, 1782–931

Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract ‘Dent was probably an amateur and nothing is known of his life’, state Bryant and Heneage. Despite contributing to caricature's ‘golden age’, William Dent remains overlooked compared to contemporaries like James Gillray. Dent's extensive portfolio (1782–93) and rumoured role as a Pittite propagandist have not secured his place in the canon of ...

A fast, low-memory, and stable algorithm for implementing multicomponent transport in direct numerical simulations [PDF]

, 2019
Implementing multicomponent diffusion models in reacting-flow simulations is computationally expensive due to the challenges involved in calculating diffusion coefficients.

A Non‐Host Pathogen Elicitor Induces Blast Resistance Mediated by OsNAC78‐Pir7b Module in Rice

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants exhibit broad‐spectrum and persistent resistance induced by non‐host pathogens. Previous studies have found that syringolin A secreted by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae can activate the expression of defense‐related gene Pir7b in non‐host rice, but the underlying mechanism remains ambiguous.

A Meta‐Analysis Reveals That the Protective Role of Silicon in Grasses Against Fungal Pathogens Depends on Infection Mechanism

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogen infection drives plant community structure and constrains global agricultural productivity. Silicon (Si) improves resistance to abiotic and herbivory stress, particularly in grasses, but relatively little attention has addressed Si‐mediated resistance to pathogens, nor has it tested how this varies according to the type of plant and ...

Soot modeling with temperature- and size-based collision efficiency for nucleation and condensation

Applications in Energy and Combustion Science
Temperature- and size-based collision efficiencies for the collision of dimerizing gas-phase species and for the condensation of dimers onto soot particles were estimated based on theoretical principles. These collision efficiencies were then implemented

Pregnancy shifts endothelial progenitor cell morphology and function: Role of metabolism, pro‐inflammatory cytokines and fetal sex

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We recruited non‐pregnant women (NP), women in early pregnancy (EP) and late pregnancy (LP) for isolation of endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) via density gradient centrifugation. Plasma supernatant was collected for analysis of markers of glucose and lipid metabolism (fasting glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, low ...

Effects of hydrogen addition on soot emission of methane and propane coaxial jet diffusion flames

Journal of Thermal Science and Technology
In recent years, environmental problems such as global warming and air pollution have been recognized more seriously. Soot in the combustion products is one of the causes of air pollution.

Soot volume fraction and temperature measurements in laminar nonpremixed flames using thermocouples

Combustion and Flame, 1997
Abstract Thermocouple particle densitometry (TPD), a new method for measuring absolute soot volume fraction in flames which was suggested by Eisner and Rosner, has been successfully implemented in several laminar nonpremixed flames. This diagnostic relies on measuring the junction temperature history of a thermocouple rapidly inserted into a soot ...

Soot formation and radiation in turbulent jet diffusion flames under normal and reduced gravity conditions [PDF]

Most practical combustion processes, as well as fires and explosions, exhibit some characteristics of turbulent diffusion flames. For hydrocarbon fuels, the presence of soot particles significantly increases the level of radiative heat transfer from ...
