The hot deformation behavior of a typical martensitic stainless steel containing 2.1% Ni was investigated by means of the compression test in the strain rate range of 0.001-1 s-1 and temperature range of 950-1150 °C. The flow behavior of the steel was evaluated using the flow stress curves and flow softening map and by microstructural investigation. Taking into account of the strain effect on t...

heater. This system is adequate for rooms with a capacity of up to about 16 m3 and for temperatures of up to 40°C. Temperature recording is by a Cambridge recorder which is mounted externally and, over a period of over one year since the installation of the hot room, the internal temperature has remained constantly at the set temperature (37°C). Local temperature variations within the hot room ...

An experimental study of ignition risk due to hot points in the storage of bulk materials is required to ensure fire safety. Many parameters are involved in this phenomenon: nature of the material, storage volume and temperature, type and size of hot point, etc. The aim of this study is to determine critical ignition temperatures of hot spots embedded in powder materials for different condition...

CONTEXT Hot weather taxes cardiovascular function and is associated with increased deaths from heart disease. Cocaine can cause hypertension, tachycardia, coronary vasospasm, arrhythmias, and increased core temperature. OBJECTIVE To determine the association between mortality from cocaine overdose and hot weather. SETTING New York, NY. DESIGN Retrospective review of medical examiner cases...

this article presents a transient model of a solar adsorption cooling system. a computer program has been developed to simulate the operation of a two bed silica gel- water adsorption cooling system as well as flat plate collectors and the hot water storage tank. this program is then utilized to simulate the performance of a sample solar adsorption cooling system used for cooling a set of rooms...

Introduction: The discovery of over 250 exoplanets, many of which exist in conditions unlike any Solar System bodies, has motivated researchers to study these planets and place them within the greater context of planetary science. Of these discovered exoplanets, most are massive (Jupiter masses) and orbit very close to the parent-star, with orbital periods on the order of several days [1]. Addi...

Despite significant theoretical advancement in the area of child neuropsychology, limited attention has been paid to the developmental features of adolescence. The present study intends to address this issue in relation to executive function (EF). EF refers to the psychological processes that underlie goal-directed behavior; recent studies separate cool EF (psychological process involves pure l...

Ayer Hangat site is located in the island of Langkawi, northwest Malaysia. The site is characterized by the presence of hot spring. This hot spring is believed to be related to granitic intrusion nearby. Hence the present work is focusing on defining the shallow subsurface structures that control the migration of hot water to the surface. Seismic reflection method is used to achieve the goal of...

The effect of three different temperature ranges on the triggering of voluntary-induced swallowing and on the duration of the pharyngeal phase of oropharyngeal swallowing was studied electrophysiologically. The relationship between volume and temperature of liquids swallowed was also explored. This study included 40 nondisabled volunteers (23 male and 17 female). Laryngeal vertical movements an...

Tourism in hot spring areas has been popular in Taiwan recently. However, hot spring resources are limited and scarce, so it is important to use hot spring resources effectively and appropriately, and study hot spring industrial symbiosis and industry chain. Therefore, the study constructs a hot spring industrial park model through ecological viewpoint. PDCA cycle is adopted to install the oper...
