Effect of biofuel E85 combustion on fuel consumption in spark-ignition engines

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2012
Biofuels represent an alternative source of energy that should gradually decrease our dependence on crude oil. A rapid development of their use in combustion engines is above all the consequence of their very positive balance of emissions.

Adaptive Responses of Tropical Crops: A Multi‐Scale Omics Integrated Perspective

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tropical crops integrate genomic, morphological, physiological, and ecological adaptations to thrive under extreme and variable environments. This review highlights how natural selection, domestication, and breeding shape stress resilience, resource‐use strategies, and productivity in sugarcane, banana, cassava, rubber and oil palm, offering new routes

Multi‐Scale Bionic Structure Constructs Biomass Flame‐Retardant Thermal Insulation Foam Material

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by mussel adhesion and hierarchical brick‐and‐mortar architectures, a cellulose‐based biomimetic foam is constructed by anchoring bentonite nanosheets onto a polydopamine‐decorated cellulose nanofiber network. The resulting foam combines low thermal conductivity with intrinsic flame retardancy and full biodegradability, presenting a ...

Advances in Computational and Experimental Approaches to Chemical Short‐Range Order Formation in Multi‐Principal Element Alloys

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chemical short‐range order (CSRO) plays a central role in governing the behavior of multi‐principal element alloys. This perspective critically assesses computational and experimental approaches for quantifying, characterizing, and validating CSRO, emphasizing modeling–experiment cross‐validation pathways that enable more reliable interpretation of ...
