Exothermic Curing System with Hot Wire in Cold Weather

Hot Weather Expeditions in Afghanistan

in England. The course thus adopted cut short the rather animated discussions of the Home papers on the subject, and for the present the question as to the best means, direct and indirect, of protecting the soldier from the effects of unavoidable exposure to heat is left in the stage of theory. Under these circumstances Indian experiences might reasonably be expected to afford a clue to the pre...

Attitude, Perception and Judgment changes in cope with very cold weather conditions: a qualitative study

Significant psychological changes in extremely cold regions are considered as natural human reactions. Antarctica has very cold conditions and is considered a natural laboratory for many studies in various fields. Survival, in this harsh environment, is unmanageable without human preconditions; Antarctica with a focus on resilience and psychological adjustment, an opportunity for the individual...

Exothermic reactions in cold rolled Ni/Al reactive multilayer foils

Self-propagating exothermic formation reactions have been intensively studied in a variety of reactive multilayer foils, such as Ni/Al, Ni/Si, and Nb/Si foils. These foils contain numerous alternating nanoscale layers of elements with large negative heats of mixing. With a small thermal pulse, atoms diffuse normal to the layering and result in a rapid exothermic reaction. The heat produced is c...

Association of cold weather with testicular torsion.

A retrospective study of 46 patients who presented with proved testicular torsion over five years at two Dublin hospitals showed that in 40 cases torsion had occurred when the temperature was under 2 degrees C; the incidence of torsion was higher during the cold months of the year. Both of these findings were statistically significant. These and other results suggest that the ambient temperatur...
