DOI: 10.1109/lra.2022.3149043
Abstract: Harmful greenhouse gases such as methane are prone to leak during extraction, transportation, and storage in oil fields. Therefore we must monitor gas leak rates to keep such fugitive emissions in check. However, most currently… read more here.

DOI: 10.1115/1.4040493
Abstract: Leaking valves have forced shutdown in many nuclear power plants. The myth of zero leakage or adequate sealing must give way to more realistic maximum leak rate criterion in design of nuclear bolted flange joints… read more here.
