The present decade has witnessed numerous investigations focussed on the determination of the mechanical properties of Fly ash composites.These composites have attracted attention,especially in the form of reinforcements owing to their…
Fly ash (FA), as an industry by-product has attracted much attention as a suitable supplier of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) in preparation of geopolymer for the sustainable environment and material science applications. Here, the effect…
Volcanic ash clouds often become multilayered and thin with distance from the vent. We explore one mechanism for development of this layered structure. We review data on the characteristics of turbulence layering in the free atmosphere, as…

Molecular dynamics computer simulations are used to investigate a silica melt confined between walls at equilibrium and in a steady-state Poisseuille flow. The walls consist of point particles forming a rigid face-centered cubic lattice and…
The powdery nature and high alkali content of vegetable ashes make them ideal raw materials to be used as modifiers of silicate compositions (glasses, enamels and ceramics). Their utilisation since ancient times is described in the…
Stainless steel particles (60 $\mu$m in mean diameter) cladded with an alumina shell (2 $\mu$m thick and manufactured by mechanofusion) were sprayed with an Ar-H2 (53-7 slm) d.c. plasma jet (I = 500 A, P = 28 kW, \rho_th = 56 %). Two main…
Context. We investigate the binding energies of atoms to interstellar dust particles, which play a key role in their growth and evolution, as well as for the chemical reactions on their surfaces. Aims. We aim to compute the binding energies…
Amorphous alumina is employed ubiquitously as a high-dielectric-constant material in electronics, and its thermal-transport properties are of key relevance for heat management in electronic chips and devices. Experiments show that the…
In this research, the ambient cured one part alkali activated material (AAM) containing graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs), fly ash, slag and silica fume has been investigated after high temperature exposure to 200 to 800oC. Their compressive…
Biofuels have shown to be a reliable source of energy and a replication of fossil fuels. A well-known branch of biofuels is oxygenated ones derived from lignin compounds. Although a wide range of studies was done on oxygenated fuels,…
Massive stellar clusters provide radiation ($\mathrm{\sim 10^7-10^8~L_{\odot}}$) and winds ($\mathrm{\sim 1000~km/s}$) that act to heat dust and shape their surrounding environment. In this paper, the Arched Filaments in the Galactic center…
Cosmic dust models are key ingredients in advancing our understanding of astronomical environments as diverse as interstellar clouds in galaxies, circumstellar envelopes around evolved and young stars, and protoplanetary disks. Such models…
A switching-off process very similar to those in real high-voltage self-blast circuit-breakers is emulated in a model chamber to study the arc properties by optical emission spectroscopy. The arc is operated in a chamber filled with SF$_6$…
In a multi-wavelength study of thermal emission and scattered light images we analyse the dust properties and structure of the debris disc around the A1-type main sequence star 49~Cet. As a basis for this study, we present new scattered…
We address an experimental observation of shear flow of micron sized dust particles in a strongly coupled complex plasma in presence of a homogeneous magnetic field. Two concentric Aluminum rings of different size are placed on the lower…
Nanometre- to micrometre-sized solid dust particles play a vital role in star and planet formations. Despite of their importance, however, our understanding of physical and chemical properties of dust particles is still provisional. We have…
The status of the literature is reviewed for thermophysical properties of pure polycrystalline solid and liquid beryllium which constitute input for the modelling of intense plasma-surface interaction phenomena that are important for fusion…
Ni/Al reactive multilayers are promising materials for applications requiring controlled local energy release and superior mechanical performance. This study systematically investigates the impact of compositional variations, ranging from…
We present a coupled fluid-dynamic and electromagnetic model for volcanic ash plumes. In a forward approach, the model is able to simulate the plume dynamics from prescribed input flow conditions and generate the corresponding synthetic…
