LES/FGM investigation of ignition and flame structure in a gasoline partially premixed combustion engine

This paper presents a joint numerical and experimental study of the ignition process and flame structures in a gasoline partially premixed combustion (PPC) engine. The numerical simulation is based on a five-dimension Flamelet-Generated Manifold (5D-FGM) tabulation approach and large eddy simulation (LES). The spray and combustion process in an optical PPC engine fueled with a primary reference fu

Molecular dynamics-based characterisation of early oxide in Fe/Cr alloys

The addition of Cr is known to work as an effective prevention against oxidation in Fe-based alloys. This can be attributed to the peripheral oxide, the structure of which is dependent on the composition of the alloy. Using Molecular Dynamic (MD) calculations with a Reactive Force Field (ReaxFF) potential, we successfully identify several oxide structures arising during initial oxide formation in The addition of Cr is known to work as an effective prevention against oxidation in Fe-based alloys.

Simultaneous non-invasive gas analysis in artificial photosynthesis reactions using rotational Raman spectroscopy

Optimising reactions in artificial photosynthesis research requires screening of many reaction and operation parameters, which is often resource-intense and time-consuming. In this paper, we demonstrate the use of a rotational Raman-based spectrometer for non-invasive quantification of several gases (H2, O2, N2, CO, CO2) with short analysis times (15 s), enabling high throughput screening.

Evolution of residual stress when turning a fillet radius in stainless steel

Most studies have been carried out to investigate the surface integrity induced by metal cutting process. However, the previous studies are limited to a longitudinal turning or orthogonal cutting operations and the residual stresses generated in a fillet radius have been ignored. This study uses a combination of experiments and numerical simulations to study the evolution of cutting forces, temper

Vegetation change on mountaintops in northern Sweden : Stable vascular-plant but reordering of lichen and bryophyte communities

Alpine ecosystems harbor remarkably diverse and distinct plant communities that are characteristically limited to harsh, and cold climatic conditions. As a result of thermal limitation to species occurrence, mountainous ecosystems are considered to be particularly sensitive to climate change. Our understanding of the impact of climate change is mainly based on vascular plants however, whereas cryp

Intracranial Hemorrhages in Neonates : Incidence, Risk Factors and Treatment

Hemostasis is a dynamic process that starts in utero. Neonates, especially those who are born preterm, are at high risk of bleeding. The coagulation system evolves with age, and the decreased levels of coagulation factors along with hypo-reactive platelets are counterbalanced with increased activity of von Willebrand factor, high hematocrit and mean corpuscular volume as well as low levels of coag

N-doping of nonfullerene bulk-heterojunction organic solar cells strengthens photogeneration and exciton dissociation

N-type doping of the bulk-heterojunction layer in nonfullerene organic solar cells allows to effectively ameliorate inferior electron transportation by filling traps and optimizing electron pathways, leading to a better balance of charge transport in device. This mechanism, however, provides an incomplete understanding of the stronger photogeneration, long-lived excitons and simultaneously increas
