چکیده
This paper describes an expanded mechanism of metal combustion that emphasizes reactions and phase changes occurring within the burning metal in addition to those occurring on and above the metal surface. Selected recent experimental work showing the importance of these internal processes in metal combustion is surveyed. Gas dissolution within the burning metal, ensuing phase changes, and their effects on combustion are discussed. Metal–gas phase diagrams are used to interpret the experimentally observed metal combustion behavior. Some concepts aimed at designing improved metal-based high energy density materials and controlling metals flammability are briefly addressed. q 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

This paper reviews literature on co-firing of coal with biomass fuels. Here, the term biomass includes organic matter produced as a result of photosynthesis as well as municipal, industrial and animal waste material. Brief summaries of the basic concepts involved in the combustion of coal and biomass fuels are presented. Different classes of co-firing methods are identified. Experimental result...

A new, dynamic, tree structured network, the Competitive Evolutionary Neural Tree (CENT) is introduced. The network is able to provide a hierarchical classification of unlabelled data sets. The main advantage that the CENT offers over other hierarchical competitive networks is its ability to self determine the number, and structure, of the competitive nodes in the network, without the need for ...

The paper analyzes some generic features of industrial dynamics whereby innovative change is carried, stochastically, by new entrants. Relying on the formal representation suggested in Winter, S.G., Kaniovski, Y.M., Dosi, G., 1997. A Baseline Model of Industry Evolution. [Interim Report IR-97-013/March, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, Laxenburg, Austria], it studies both t...
