introduction : burn injuries, in many ways, are considered to be one the most tragic events an individual can experience during his life. in particular, the iranian province of west azarbiajan provides one of the most dangerous sites, because of a very cold weather condition imposed by its harsh winters. this study is aimed to provide preventive measures for prevention and treatment of the comp...

Recognizing that previous experimental studies on constant-pressure, outwardly propagating, spherical flames with imaging capability were limited to pressures less than about 5 atm, and that pressures within internal combustion engines are substantially higher, a novel experimental apparatus was designed to extend the environmental pressure to 60 atm. Results substantiate previous observations ...

based on the {s+, i-} pathway, the concentration of surfactant and surface charge density of silanolate groups control the phase transition from lamellar, to hexagonal through cubic form. the high surface charge density of silanolate groups was observed for the lamellar phase. with decrease of molar concentration of surfactant on the gel, the yield of reaction decreases and the stability of mes...

Imaging scheme based on Acetone-OH simultaneous PLIF (Planer Laser-Induced Fluorescence) is applied for diagnostics of reactive zone over the premixed flames and the reactive zone imaging are demonstrated for turbulent premixed flame conditions. In the present study, visualization of reactive zone is brought by simultaneous measurement of unburned zone through acetone (seeded into the fuel flow...

This paper describes an experimental investigation of acoustically forced lean premixed turbulent bluff-bodystabilised flames in an enclosure short enough so that no coupling of the combustor downstream acoustics occurred for the frequencies studied here, which allows an unambiguous examination of the flame response to inlet velocity fluctuations. Special emphasis was placed on the amplitude de...

BACKGROUND Burn injuries are a huge public health issue for children. The aim of this study was to determine the demographic and etiological features, burn wound infections, and clinical trends of 2346 pediatric burns patients over 15 years in the southeast provinces of Turkey and to establish criteria for a pediatric burn prevention program. METHODS Age, gender, degree of burn, demographics,...

Microgravity experiments on flame spread over thermally-thick fuels were conducted using foam fuels to obtain low density and thermal conductivity, and thus large spread rate (Sf) over thermally-thick fuels compared to dense fuels such as PMMA. This scheme enabled meaningful results to be obtained even in 2.2 second drop tower experiments. It was found that, in contrast conventional understandi...
