The study measured the analgesic effects of three popular Hawaii remedies for stings from the box jellyfish, Carybdea alata. Analysis of data showed that aerosol sprays of Sting-Aid (an aluminum sulfate solution), Aldolph's meat tenderizer dissolved in water, and fresh water neither increased nor decreased the pain of box jellyfish stings more than the control (seawater).

Large eddy simulation is a promising advancement for IC engine modeling. This requires appropriate models for a many physical processes. This paper classifies and briefly describes the major types of models for turbulence, combustion, and sprays. Representative references are listed with an emphasis on engine applications. Recommendations for modeling approaches to use in engine LES are also pr...

In particle engineering, spray drying is an essential technique that depends on producing sprays, ideally made of equal-sized droplets. Ultrasonic sprays appear to be the best option achieve it, and Faraday waves are background mechanism ultrasonic atomization. The characterization in this atomization strategy commonly related relation between characteristic drop sizes capillary length produced...

Every Finsler metric naturally induces a spray but not so for the converse. The notion sprays of scalar (resp. isotropic) curvature has been known as generalization metrics flag curvature. In this paper, new notion, constant curvature, is introduced and especially it shows that isotropic necessarily even in dimension $$n\ge 3$$ . Further, complete conditions are given constant) to be metrizable...

A Reduced Order Model (ROM) providing a highly detailed description of the sprinkler spray has been developed for engineering applications. The new ROM approach combines an elegantly parameterized analytical dispersed with tightly integrated high-fidelity initial capable producing complete quantitative map entire field from centerline to edge and ceiling floor. complex is mapped using sparsely ...

In this paper, we tackle the issue of the accurate simulation of evaporating and reactive polydisperse sprays strongly coupled to unsteady gaseous flows. In solid propulsion, aluminum particles are included in the propellant to improve the global performances but the distributed combustion of these droplets in the chamber is suspected to be a driving mechanism of hydrodynamic and acoustic insta...
