We describe a model that uses microfailure and fragment flow constitutive data, show how the model links to continuum models, and compare computational results with glass penetration tests. 

We investigate by comparing the Joule heating measured by the Sondrestrom incoherent scatter radar during a storm with that modeled by the Assimilative Mapping of Ionospheric Electrodynamics (AMIE) procedure.

Using sum-frequency vibrational spectroscopy, we found that waterstructure at nanoporous silica/water interfaces depended on the nanoporous film structure.

We report a manufacturing breakthrough for griffithsin (GRFT), one of the most potent HIV entry inhibitors. Plant-produced GRFT (GRFT-P) was shown as active against HIV at picomolar concentrations, directly virucidal…

This short commentary takes a stroll through the early days of the field of combinatorial chemistry and molecular diversity. It offers a high-level perspective on the field's beginnings--and its future--as…

The ultrafast laser-induced photoionization and photodissociation processes of the nitroaromatic containing explosive and explosive related compounds have been investigated at three laser wavelengths and power densities using a time-of-flight mass…

In this paper, we are presenting the preliminary results of a process simulation using the ASPEN program under several scenerios including the IGCC with no CO2 capture, IGCC with Selexol, and…

One possible mitigation strategy to reduce exposure to jet flames is to incorporate barriers around hydrogen storage and delivery equipment.

We describe the development and performance evaluation of a system for optical interrogation, subsequent selection, and collection of individual aerosol particles entrained in an inlet air stream.

Process and catalytic considerations for producing propylene glycol from glycerin-derived biomass sources are compared to current conventional sources, while economic factors and potential markets are discussed
