Combining the Pitcher and Lotus Plant: Supericephobic and Superhydrophobic Silicone Films

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on bench‐top nanomolding of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with optimized silicone oil content, we developed hierarchically structured silicone films by essentially combining the properties of the lotus and pitcher plant; particularly we are able to achieve water contact angle as high as 171° and ice adhesion strength as low as 11.5 kPa (i.e ...

Conceptual sizing of next supersonic passenger aircraft from regression of the limited existing designs

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Despite previous versions, there are no current supersonic passenger transport aircraft. Much aircraft research is focused on hypersonic flight and the new technologies therein and is therefore unlikely to add to commercial versions anytime soon.

Noise Prediction within Conceptual Aircraft Design

, 2013
Motivation for the presented activities is the integration of noise as an additional objective in conceptual aircraft design. Therefore, the Parametric Aircraft Noise Analysis Module (PANAM) is developed to account for individual noise sources depending on their geometry and operating conditions.

Single‐Crystal PZT‐Driven Organic Piezo‐Phototronic Adaptive Transistors Toward Advanced Spatiotemporal Visual Computing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here, we propose a single‐crystal PZT‐based piezo‐phototronic organic adaptive memory transistor (OAMT), achieving a record memory window capacity factor (γ) of 0.87 at a low SS of 200 mV/decade via efficient multi‐field control. The device achieves a high recognition accuracy ∼ 90% in neuromorphic simulations, demonstrates robust fault tolerance under
