Spray combustion modeling. Final report [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Concern over the future availability of high quality liquid fuels or use in furnaces and boilers prompted the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) to consider alternate fuels as replacements for the high grade liquid fuels used in the 1970`s and 1980`s. Alternate fuels were defined to be combinations of a large percentage of viscous, low volatility fuels ...

Biomass Polymer‐Stabilized Hygroscopic Salts in Cellulose Foams for Durable Atmospheric Water Harvesting

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
We fabricate a LiCl+CMC@cellulose composite foam via a scalable impregnation process, enabling excellent AWH water capture‐release cycling stability. The CMC acts as a “molecular glue,” effectively mitigating salt aggregation and leakage. The composite foam delivers a high water uptake of 16.04 ± 0.82 g g−1 with >80% retention over 10 cycles, while a ...

The Breakdown and Self‐Clearing Performance During the Energy Harvesting Process of Dielectric Elastomer Generators Using Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes Electrodes

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For dielectric elastomer generators (DEG), electrical breakdown is the main failure mode during their working cycle. The application of self‐clearing electrodes is of great significance to avoid a single breakdown leading to the failure of the entire generator.

Titration of nicotine intake in smokers switching to reduced nicotine content cigarettes with access to alternative nicotine systems: Secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Mandated reduction of the nicotine content of cigarettes to reduce addictiveness to minimal levels has the potential to substantially reduce combusted cigarette use and promote public health. This paper examined the hypothesis that when people who smoke cigarettes are switched to very low nicotine content (VLNC) cigarettes ...
