Bats are able to fly with extraordinary agility and maneuverability, partly due to their articulated and highly-compliant membrane wings...
Strong economy is a necessary but not sufficient condition for technological progress, which requires appropriate technical education and, especially in modern conditions...
We present an experimental study of the reversal of the large-scale circulation (LSC) in quasi-dimensional turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection...
The combustion of fossil fuels not only generates greenhouse gases, but also produces pollutants, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds, and in particular, nano-sized particulates...
Development of reactor core temperature and melting failure of the reactor core structures after severe accidents are the main causes of huge environmental damage and public anti-nuclear panic...
Synthesis of nano-materials via flame-based methods carried advantages over other synthesis methods. In this talk, the ability to systematically study fundamental phenomena governing formation of nano-materials will be demonstrated...
Shock waves play a strong role i energy, aerospace and astrophysical applications. Very often in these applications, the medium of propagation for the shock is strongly electrically conductive and may be modeled as a plasma...
Detailed reaction mechanisms are created using information of elementary reactions from several sources, like direct measurements and theoretical (TST and master equation) methods for the calculation of the rate coefficients...
