Microcantilevers with specific coatings can be used for chemical detection 4,5, but TNT molecules, which are intrinsically 'sticky', readily adhere to uncoated cantilever surfaces 6. When the source ...

Explosions of reactive gases and the associated rapid, uncontrolled release of large amounts of energy pose threats of immense destructive power to mining operations, fuel storage facilities, chemical ...

A German research project, known as DEFLAG, to develop a laser-based technique to decommission unexploded munitions, which concluded earlier this year, has been hailed as a success, with the final ...

Researchers have theoretically linked ignition and deflagration in a combustion system, unlocking new configurations for stable, efficient combustion engines due to the possible existence of any ...

Fluence Energy (FLNC) announced the completion and passing of rigorous deflagration and fire safety testing for the first Gridstack Pro system. The fire test included Fluence’s U.S-manufactured ...

The fact that over 280 dust-related explosions or fires have occurred in the past 25 years, resulting in 119 fatalities and over 700 injuries, has not gone unnoticed regulatory agencies or ...

Significant research efforts have been devoted to studying the deflagration-to-detonation transition, and progress has been made in understanding its role in confined systems. Importantly, it was ...

The relationships between distance from inlet boundary and inlet velocity for stoichiometric methane-air mixtures. The open circle-shaped markers mean that the inlet velocity is the same with the ...
