Extensionality for Fusions and Pluralities

One of the more persistent debates in mereology is whether distinct wholes can have the same parts. Extensional mereologists hold that if there is no part that makes the difference, then there is nothing to distinguish the wholes, so sameness of parts implies identity. Non-extensionalists, however, do think there are cases where distinct wholes share all their parts. This paper argues that the kin

The role of a split injection strategy in the mixture formation and combustion of diesel spray: A large-eddy simulation

The role of a split injection in the mixture formation and combustion characteristics of a diesel spray in an engine-like condition is investigated. We use large-eddy simulations with finite rate chemistry in order to identify the main controlling mechanism that can potentially improve the mixture quality and reduces the combustion emissions. It is shown that the primary effect of the split inject
