When moxibustion is applied to a certain acupoint in the patient, a regional heat sensitive reaction may be found. In the present paper, the authors expound its conception and appearing regularities, its relationship with the "arrival of qi" of Chinese medicine, and its clinical application in guiding acupoint selection and heat-stimulation quantity. Heat sensitive reaction during moxibustion ("heat sensitive moxibustion") is frequently seen in people undergoing pathological conditions and correlates highly with the diseases. It characterizes in dynamic changes in the location along with the state of the disorders and in being not always to coincide with the standard meridian acupoint location. The heat sensitive phenomenon of moxibustion is one of the manifestations in the activated functional activities of meridian of Chinese medicine just like the arrival of the qi caused by acupuncture stimulation. It is also a sign of activation of the human endogenous functional regulative system. Therefore, thinking highly of the heat sensitive reaction of moxibustion is the key point for raising the curative effect in clinical practice.

Diagnostic tools for understanding the edge plasma behavior in fusion devices are essential. The main focus of the present work is to present the infra-red (IR) diagnostics installed on Tokamak Energy's spherical tokamak (ST40) and the IR thermographic inversion tool, Functional Analysis of Heat Flux (FAHF). FAHF is designed for multi-2D thermographic inversions within the divertor tiles using the finite difference method and an explicit time stepping scheme.

Since the rings of the angular contact ball bearings (ACBBs) are typical highly sensitive quenching thin-walled structure, the microstructure and properties variation of the rings during the heat treatment process are often difficult to be controlled precisely, and then the service life of the bearings is reduced. Therefore, in this study, the combination of the numerical simulation and experimental was carried out during the quenching and tempering process of ACBBs (7008C), the phase transformation of the inner and outer ring during the heat treatment process were explored, and the law of the microstructure evolution and the mechanical properties variation were revealed. Firstly, based on the multi-field coupling theory of temperature, microstructure and stress-strain field, the numerical simulation model of the heat treatment process of the bearing rings was established.

An ammonium perchlorate (AP) composite system with double-coating encapsulation based on the interfacial polymerization behavior of dopamine (DA) in Pickering emulsions was designed to enhance the combustion performance of HTPB-based propellants. The composite system proved highly effective in mitigating the agglomeration issues associated with iron oxide nanoparticles (FeO NPs) as catalysts, with the AP exhibiting superior performance compared to the composite comprising pure FeO NPs. The results of the thermal decomposition experiments showed that the HTD temperature of AP@PDA@FeO was reduced to 318.

One of the key surveillance strategies for the early detection of an African swine fever (ASF) incursion into a country is the sampling of wild or feral pig populations. In Australia, the remote northern regions are considered a risk pathway for ASF incursion due to the combination of high numbers of feral pigs and their close proximity to countries where ASF is present. These regions primarily consist of isolated arid rangelands with high average environmental temperatures.

The main purpose of this study is to prepare a melamine aniline formaldehyde foam, an MAF copolymer, with lower water sensitivity and non-flammability properties obtained by the condensation reaction of melamine, aniline, and formaldehyde. In addition, the preparation of MAFF composites with organoclay reinforcement was determined as a secondary target in order to obtain better mechanical strength, heat, and sound insulation properties. For the synthesis of foams, the microwave irradiation technique, which offers advantages such as faster reactions, high yields and purities, and reduced curing times, was used together with the heating technique and the effect of organoclay content on the structural and textural properties of foams and both heat insulation and mechanical stability was investigated.
