European projections of West Nile virus transmission under climate change scenarios

West Nile virus (WNV), a mosquito-borne zoonosis, has emerged as a disease of public health concern in Europe. Recent outbreaks have been attributed to suitable climatic conditions for its vectors favoring transmission. However, to date, projections of the risk for WNV expansion under climate change scenarios is lacking. Here, we estimate the WNV-outbreaks risk for a set of climate change and soci

Numerical simulation of microwave-enhanced methane-air flames I : Modeling and one-dimensional premixed laminar flames

This study considers the numerical modeling of sub-breakdown microwave-enhanced combustion in one-dimensional laminar methane-air flames over a range of stoichiometries at standard temperature and pressure. The effect of uniform microwave fields on the laminar flame speed, post-flame temperature and composition is of primary interest here. A model for the non-thermal plasma generated by the microw

Studies Into the Use of Non-linear Ultrasound to Detect Corroded Steel Plates Embedded in Concrete

In some nuclear power plants, the containment liners are embedded in concrete. The purpose of the containment liner is to minimize the risk of radioactive leakage by granting a leak-tight containment building. In the presence of flaws in the surrounding concrete, such as voids, or foreign objects embedded in the concrete, there is a risk that the liner plate might corrode. This could degrade the l

Identification and Mapping of Three Distinct Breakup Morphologies in the Turbulent Inertial Regime of Emulsification—Effect of Weber Number and Viscosity Ratio

Turbulent emulsification is an important unit operation in chemical engineering. Due to its high energy cost, there is substantial interest in increasing the fundamental understanding of drop breakup in these devices, e.g., for optimization. In this study, numerical breakup experiments are used to study turbulent fragmentation of viscous drops, under conditions similar to emulsification devices su
