Tower Blocks UK: Manchester City Hulme Redevelopment Area, Stage 3 and 3 South, n12-03.jpg
No full textMulti-storey block details: three 9-storey blocks containing 210 dwellings; eight 6-storey blocks containing 355 dwellings; South: seven 6-storey blocks containing 188 dwellings; Multi-storey block name(s): Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Meredith Court; Hopton Court; Fulton Court; South: Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Unknown; Image detail: General view of 6-storey blocks in Hulme redevelopment Stage 3 Original Commissioning Authority: Manchester County Borough Council; Image taken: 1988;Context: Tower Block UK is a project supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund, bringing together public engagement and an openly-licensed image archive in an attempt to emphasise the social and architectural importance of tower blocks, and to frame multi-storey social housing as a coherent and accessible nationwide heritage. The Tower Block UK image archive is a searchable database of around 4,000 images of every multi-storey social housing development built in the UK. The photographs were largely taken in the 1980s by Miles Glendinning and are made available here for public use. As many of the blocks documented and photographed have since been demolished, the archive functions in part as a repository of information on an important aspect of UK heritage that is now vanishing. The archive itself catalogues multi-storey blocks as part of the developments within which they were initially commissioned and built. It gives details of notable dates, such as when local authorities approved the developments and when construction began or finished. Alongside this, the archive provides information on the local authorities, architects, and other agents involved in the processes of commissioning, designing, and constructing mass social housing. While the most historically 'accurate' identification labels in the database are the original overall development or project names, the archive also contains details of the individual blocks built

Thermal Oscillations of Nanobubbles
No full textNanobubble cavitation is advancing technologies in enhanced wastewater treatment, cancer therapy and diagnosis, and microfluidic cleaning. Current macroscale models predict that nanobubble oscillations should be isothermal, yet recent studies suggest that they are adiabatic with an associated increase in natural frequency, which becomes challenging when characterizing nanobubble sizes using ultrasound in experiments. We derive a new theoretical model that considers the nonideal nature of the nanobubble’s internal gas phase and nonequilibrium effects, by employing the van der Waals (vdW) equation of state and implementing a temperature jump term at the liquid−gas interface, respectively, finding excellent agreement with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Our results reveal how adiabatic behavior could be erroneously interpreted when analyzing the thermal response of the gas using the commonly employed polytropic process and explain instead how nanobubble oscillations are physically closer to their isothermal limit. This data set contains the MD simulation data files to reproduce these results
