High-resolution numerical simulation of rotating detonation waves with parallel adaptive mesh refinement

Applications in Energy and Combustion Science
Simulations of rotating detonation engines are still dominated by solvers on uniform or statically refined meshes. Here, simulations of premixed rotating detonation waves are conducted using the block-structured adaptive mesh refinement (SAMR) technique.

Optimal Control Algorithms with Adaptive Time-Mesh Refinement for Kite Power Systems

Energies, 2018
This article addresses the problem of optimizing electrical power generation using kite power systems (KPSs). KPSs are airborne wind energy systems that aim to harvest the power of strong and steady high-altitude winds.

Enhancing Low‐Temperature Performance of Sodium‐Ion Batteries via Anion‐Solvent Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DOL is introduced into electrolytes as a co‐solvent, increasing slat solubility, ion conductivity, and the de‐solvent process, and forming an anion‐rich solvent shell due to its high interaction with anion. With the above virtues, the batteries using this electrolyte exhibit excellent cycling stability at low temperatures. Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries

Three‐Dimensional Anomalous Hall Sensing Enabled By Spin–Orbit Torque Driven Domain Reconfiguration In Chiral Multilayers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional magnetic field sensor is realized in chiral W/CoFeB/MgO multilayers, where spin–orbit torques reversibly reconfigure homochiral stripe domains. The symmetry of the torque enables offset‐free in‐plane sensing, while the reproducible domain reconfiguration extends the linear out‐of‐plane range. An anomalous Hall readout delivers large‐

Sledgehamr: Simulating Scalar Fields with Adaptive Mesh Refinement

The Astrophysical Journal
Understanding the nonlinear dynamics of coupled scalar fields often necessitates simulations on a 3D mesh. These simulations can be computationally expensive if a large scale separation is involved.

Error Estimation for Adaptive Mesh Refinement in Droplet Simulations

Fluids
We present a one-dimensional shear-force-driven droplet formation model with a flux-based error estimator. The model is derived using asymptotic expansion and a front-tracking method to simulate the droplet interface.

From Geometry to Function: Programmable Mechanical Response in 3D‐Printed Adipose‐Inspired Soft Metamaterials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Geometry‐driven design of soft cellular metamaterials is systematically investigated by combining experiments, finite element modeling, and statistical prediction. The study quantifies how unit cell geometry and material properties govern stiffness, instability, densification, and energy absorption.

Giant Electrostriction in Halide Perovskites Revisited With Double‐Modulation Interferometry

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A giant electrostrictive effect in lead halide perovskites had been reported previously. This work uses sensitive interferometry to measure the electromechanical response of various halide perovskite samples. The results reveal no intrinsic electrostrictive compression. Instead, the materials expand primarily under an applied electric field as a result
