Actually it is partially pulsating. Not, just pulsating Pockets of something being built up and then going off… Heat that gives a difference (in pressure ?) (a limit factor may be the temperature to turbo ignite which keeps it needing that extra, give the pulse while it is burning /reacting. That until it blows locally, but then pressure falls instantaneously, then again it goes but needs some time to build up and loop until reaction is over.

16:44 Thermite grenades have proven useful, and expeditous in battle, to take guns out of action, for quite some time, HOWEVER, the 'Finality' of the destruction of the gun depends on the placement of the thermite charge: gun barrells are usually replaceable, and have 'service life' parameters assigned at manufacture, dictating that the barrel be replaced after some numbers of rounds fired; some barrels may be reworked, reconditioned, repurposed, or recycled...but, with proper maintenence, the mount could possibly go on for 2 or 3 times as long. If the thermite reaction doesn't result in damage to both the barrell, and the mechanisms of its mount, the barrel could be replaced, if there is one sufficiently available.

It's difficult to think of a less environmentally friendly way to destroy the data on a laptop. Just drop the laptop into a shredder and then you get to separate all the metals and plastics and everything and reuse them.

11:00 the Ferric oxide (Fe2O3) decomposition temperature it's around 1500°C, where it gives oxigen as a product: 6 Fe2O3 --> 4 Fe3O4 + O2 Maybe oxygen is being generated in those pulses where the ferric oxide is being heated to 2000°C. And at those temperatures also the magnetite can themally decompose to ferrous oxide: 2 Fe3O4 --> 6 FeO + O2 Below 600°C the ferrous oxide it's termodinamically unstable, but at high enought temperature can be formed.

Wow this is one of the best videos on Veritasium. The different levels of reactions and the complete explanation on how the raction happen was mind blowing
>>
<<@truthsimp
says :
A pulse is a wave form. And reactions happen due to forces that also follow wave patterns. The entire periodical chart is a vortex octave wave spectrum. So everything material and not and in between can be presented in wave form.

Rock The core is made of ultra-high-strength concrete, at 14,000psi the strongest ever poured in New York. “It’s much stronger than any rock you could find,” says Rahimian. This strength also helped reduce the thickness of the walls, maximizing the lettable area, while minimizing the weight of materials required. Replacing more than 50% of the cement content with industrial by-products further cut the carbon footprint of the building, and more than 95% of the steel in the structure is recycled, contributing to a LEED Gold environmental rating.The towers were built with 12 grades of steel, with yield strengths ranging from 42 to 100 kips per square inch (ksi). Plate thickness The thickness of the plates varied vertically and around the building's perimeter to accommodate the predicted loads. For example, the column plates at the base of the building were as thick as 4 inches, while the exterior wall plates in the upper stories were generally 1/4 inch. Viscoelastic dampers The bottom chord of the trusses incorporated viscoelastic dampers on their ends to reduce the mobility of the floor system during sway. This helped absorb wind energy. The Twin Towers were engineering marvels of their time and a symbol of American ingenuity. However, the collapse of the towers on September 11, 2001 raised questions about the design principles of high-rise buildings. Now that kind of controlled heat could cause what we witnessed
