Forced Draught Impact on Externally Venting Flames: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind can significantly influence fire development and spread in urban and forest environments causing fatal consequences for the public, the first responders, and the environment. Wind‐driven fires can have a significant impact on structural fires as wind can increase the fire's intensity, development, and flame spread.

Study of Damage to Shutters Exposed to a Vegetation Fire: Definition of Vulnerability Thresholds

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the fire behavior of wooden, PVC, and aluminum shutters through laboratory and large‐scale experiments. Laboratory tests were conducted using a cone calorimeter to assess the ignitability of the PVC and wooden shutters, focusing on the critical heat flux of ignition, ignition time and critical Flux Time Product (FTP ...

Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

Aerogel Fiber: A One‐Dimensional Programmable Porous Matter for Next Thermal Management Materials

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Aerogel fibers are redefined as one‐dimensional programmable porous matter, where thermal transport is governed by multiscale pathway engineering. By reconstructing and decoupling transport pathways from molecular to textile scales, these systems integrate insulation, radiative cooling, and adaptive thermal regulation.

Gallium‐assisted entropy engineering of high‐entropy oxide nanoparticles for solar/electrical dual‐mode thermal management textiles

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
Solar/electrical dual‐mode thermal management textiles. Abstract High‐entropy oxides (HEO) offer an emerging platform for broadband photothermal conversion because multicationic disorder can simultaneously regulate crystal distortion, valence chemistry, and electronic transitions.

White light reduces flight height of birds in low‐density migration corridor

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We conducted an experiment to better understand the effects of artificial light at night treatments of varying spectral power distributions on in‐flight migratory bird behavior as measured by a portable radar. Broad‐spectrum white light emissions reduced avian flight height as compared to dark periods and more than other light treatments.

A Fully‐Connected Chip‐Integrated Reconfigurable Mode‐Pairing Quantum Key Distribution Network

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work constructs a fully connected reconfigurable chip‐integrated quantum key distribution network via the mode‐pairing protocol. Hybrid ECL and WSS chips cut wavelength and port overhead, realizing arbitrary‐user key sharing with merely two wavelengths.

Transcending the Space‐Bandwidth and Lighting Trade‐Offs: A Programmable Self‐Mixing Interferometry Imager for Cross‐Scale Surface Inspection

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work reports a laser diode‐based self‐mixing interferometry imager featuring illumination‐invariance imaging, a 500 kHz pixel rate, and an 8.77 µm lateral resolution. It also features a programmable field‐of‐view and leading space‐bandwidth product that surpasses existing technologies by an order of magnitude, enabling cross‐scale workflow ...
