Brian Teears explains how fire dynamics has changed as a result of modern construction and, thus, why officers and firefighters must account for this in terms of how heat, air and water interact.

Any experienced firefighter or officer will tell you that firefighting requires dedication to drilling and learning. For good reason, hands-on drills that are performed in the fire station are front ...

There are two golden rules to thermal design: start simple and start early. The heat-flow path from the junction to the ambient, usually air in the local environment, determines a component’s ...

Control of heat flow is crucial for thermal logic devices and thermal management, with theoretical exploration preceding limited experimental progress in actively controlling heat flow. The device ...

New research from the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, in collaboration with The Ohio State University and Amphenol Corporation, challenges conventional understanding about ...
