Under the SAFETEA-LU Congressional Bill, the Secretary of Transportation was directed to conduct a national wildlife-vehicle collision (WVC) reduction study. The study was to advance the understanding of the causes and impacts of WVCs and identify solutions to this growing safety problem. This report contains the findings of this study, beginning w

This study investigates the ignition behavior of six dimethylcyclohexane (DMCH) isomers and cis-/trans-decalin, focusing on the effects of molecular geometry and substitution patterns. Ignition delay and derived cetane number (DCN) were measured using a CFR ignition quality tester under ASTM D6890 conditions. Among the DMCH isomers, cis-1,3-DMCH ex

Food waste is an underdeveloped source for production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Now, there is no certified conversion process of food waste for SAF by American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). We report the use of zeolite-supported molybdenum carbide nanocatalysts in upgrading biocrudes, produced from food wastes through HTL, int

The ability to predict the vapor pressure and vapor-phase composition of hydrocarbon mixtures (such as jet fuel, sustainable aviation fuel or its un-refined precursors) and partially vaporized hydrocarbon mixtures is important to simulations of processes that involve vaporization such as distillations, flash points, combustion properties of partial

Please join the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for a recap of the LTPP program lectern session held at the Transportation Research Board 102nd Annual Meeting in January 2023.
Experiments using pure compounds, National Jet Fuels Combustion Program (NJFCP) test fuels, and commercial jet fuels were conducted to demonstrate the equivalence of the indicated cetane number (ICN) and derived cetane number (DCN) for jet fuels. The calibrated range for ICN was also extended to lower cetane number (CN) values (5 to 35) to allow CN

A comprehensive uncertainty quantification (UQ) of soot volume fraction (SVF) predictions in the primary zone of a Rich-Quench-Lean (RQL) combustor is presented, with particular emphasis on the modeling uncertainties in the rates of nucleation, growth, oxidation, condensation, and coagulation. Large-eddy simulations (LES) of soot formation in a rea

Multirotor electric vertical take-off and landing vehicles and small unmanned aircraft systems commonly use distributed electric propulsion. One approach to reducing their noise involves synchronizing rotor phase relationships to control radiated noise directionally. This paper presents a practical electronic phase synchronization method for multir
