Interstitial flows at the middle height of a freely draining foam column were measured by microparticle image velocimetry (μPIV), and superficial flow was measured from the bottom of the foam by a digital weighing scale. In addition, Plateau border

We performed experiments to quantify fuel-induced foam degradation by applying foams onto liquid fuels and water (for comparison) and measuring foam thickness over time. Our investigation included two firefighting foams, one fluorine-free (RF6-ICAO)

Homemade explosive (HME) materials commonly take the form of binary, ammonium nitrate-based explosives, and are a challenge to detect due to the low volatility of ammonium nitrate, the great variation in fuel sources, and the complex environment in w

We model an idealized case of heat transfer relevant for foams used to suppress pool fires wherein an ambient-temperature firefighting foam is placed uniformly and instantaneously on top of a hot fuel pool with a boiling point slightly lower than tha

We have quantified the dynamics of bubble coarsening in some commercial firefighting foams. These multi-component foams contain unique chemical formulations leading to different coarsening and drainage behaviors. We show that these firefighting foams

Aqueous foams are generally thought to suppress pool fires by forming a transport barrier (either an aqueous film or the foam itself) that prevents fuel vapor transport from the hot pool surface into the fire above. The present work is aimed at evalu

An aqueous foam drains interstitial liquid as it fills a container after an induction period. We obtain solutions of quasi-steady and volume-averaged conservation equations containing the moving foam front to describe the induction period and the sub

A new energetic material, nitrate ester 1 (NEST-1), has shown promise as a powerful, technologically attractive explosive. Its physical properties under compression, however, are currently unknown. Accurate density functional calculations together wi

Using density functional theory with empirical van der Waals corrections, cold pressure curves were calculated and combined with the quasi-harmonic approximation to study thermodynamical properties of several energetic molecular solids. Vibration spe
Applications employing aqueous foams begin with filling a space with foam, and the liquid loss (drainage) from the foam during and after this process plays a crucial role in its effectiveness. We describe the loss of liquid from foam and the evolutio
