Plasma arc cutting (PAC) is a thermal cutting technique widely used in manufacturing applications such as shipbuilding, ...

The launcher device resembles a bucket, which is worn on the arm of firefighters, its developers explained. The device reportedly includes compressed air to launch aerosol-filled vortex rings to ...

More pocked with craters than any other object in our solar system, Jupiter's outermost and second-biggest Galilean moon, ...

Researchers at Ohio State University have developed a novel portable tool for safer and more efficient fire suppression.

this device works to suppress flames using the power of conductive aerosols, small particles that can direct electricity. These aerosols are carried by vortex rings -- small donut-shaped bands of ...

Conductive atomic force microscopy (C-AFM) is a powerful nanoscale characterization technique that combines the high-resolution imaging capabilities of atomic force microscopy (AFM) with the ability ...

The behavior of high-pressure gas flows involved during the plasma arc cutting process is not fully understood, particularly ...
