Abstract: Abstract One of the more obvious consequences of a dust deflagration inside process equipment or a structure is the mechanical damage caused by shock (compression) waves. This overpressure damage is revealed through the displacement of… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The suppression effect of expandable graphites (EGs) on 5 μm aluminum dust explosions was systematically studied in an open-space dust apparatus. Flame propagation behaviors showed that flame structures became more discrete and more irregular after… read more here.
