Studying the effect of thermal and acid exposure on alkali activated slag Geopolymer
This article reports a study about thermal stability as well as acid resistance of geopolymer materials prepared from Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS), Air Cooled Slag (ACS), Silica fume (SF) and cement kiln dust (CKD) using 6% (weight) of ...

Thermal Recirculation Modeling for Power Plants in an Estuarine Environment
Many power plants require large quantities of water for cooling purposes. The water taken from the source water body (e.g., lakes, estuaries, bays and rivers) circulates through the plant and returns to the source through outfall with a higher ...

Grains, or Molecules? Thermal, or non-Thermal? [PDF]
The effects of size and energy on infrared fluorescence (IRF) and on chemical reaction rates are investigated, using polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as examples. The range of validity of the Thermal Approximation (TA) is examined. It is found that for properties that have a near-linear dependence on the internal energy, the TA provides an ...

Osimertinib reduces angiogenesis and PDL1 expression in in ovo tumors, transforming them into ‘cold tumors’ with lower immune activity. Anatomopathological and transcriptomic analyses highlight its therapeutic impact on tumor biology. This study underscores osimertinib's potential to reshape the tumor microenvironment and provides insights into its ...

Using Flaming as an Alternative Method to Vine Suckering
Suckering is the process of removing the suckers that grapevine trunks put out in the spring. Suckering by hand is costly and time consuming and requires constant bending down, getting up and making repetitive motions.

Giant Thermal Rectification from Polyethylene Nanofiber Thermal Diodes [PDF]
The realization of phononic computing is held hostage by the lack of high performance thermal devices. Here we show through theoretical analysis and molecular dynamics simulations that unprecedented thermal rectification factors (as large as 1.20) can be achieved utilizing the phase dependent thermal conductivity of polyethylene nanofibers.

Cross-Plane Thermal Transport in Layered Materials [PDF]
The cross-plane (across-layers) phonon thermal transport of five diverse, layered semiconductors is investigated by accounting for higher-order four-phonon scattering, phonon renormalization, and multi-channel thermal transport. For materials having relatively large cross-plane thermal conductivity (AlB6, MoS2, and MoSi2N4), phonons contributing to ...

Hydrogen sulfide repairs testicular damage induced by heat stress in rats
Heat stress can cause testicular damage and affect fertility. We investigated the potential protective role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) against heat stress‐induced testicular injury and observed that H2S donor NaHS can effectively restore testicular damage in rats by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress. Our results suggest that H2S might be used

The adjustable thermal resistor by reversibly folding a graphene sheet [PDF]
Phononic (thermal) devices are studied such as thermal diode, thermal transistors, thermal logic gates, and thermal memories. However, the thermal resistor has not been demonstrated yet. Here, we propose an instantaneously adjustable thermal resistor by folded graphene.
