Revisiting the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate from methanol and carbon dioxide
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract The process for producing dimethyl carbonate (DMC) from carbon dioxide (CO2) and methanol is explored in this article. It provides an overview of the thermodynamics involved in DMC synthesis, discussing the challenges and potential solutions. The article highlights the reported use of catalysts and dehydrating agents to improve DMC yield and ...

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.A bilayer protection approach is proposed for slowing down the surface potential decay of thin films of spontaneously‐polarized electret materials. The electret and the protective films are characterized, and the protection effectiveness is investigated under the effects of light illumination, water contact and mechanical impact.

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.This paper aims to provide a robust design approach for HAWTs operating in shear flow. This study fills a critical research gap by integrating BEM and vortex theories for blade design in non‐homogeneous inflow conditions. The authors of the paper made an effort to develop and test an experimentally unsophisticated model of a turbine working in shear ...

NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF TWO ELEMENT CAMBER MORPHING AIRFOIL IN LOW REYNOLDS NUMBER FLOWS [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2017 Aerodynamic performance of a two-element camber morphing airfoil was investigated at low Reynolds number using the transient SST model in ANSYS FLUENT 14.0 and eN method in XFLR5. The two-element camber morphing concept was employed to morph the baseline

Hierarchical Differentiable Fluid Simulation
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.We introduce a two‐step algorithm that significantly reduces memory usage for solving control problems using differentiable fluid simulation techniques: our method first optimizes for bulk forces at reduced resolution, then refines local details over sub‐domains while maintaining differentiability. In trading runtime for memory, it enables optimization

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.This report explores which muscles of the pectoral girdle are employed to allow birds to hold their wings horizontally with a level aerofoil surface during a glide. Abstract Whilst many birds glide briefly with wings held horizontally, some species maintain this posture for extended periods during soaring.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.This study investigates the morphology and osteo‐histology of the wing skeleton of the world's first gliding reptiles, showing how it differs from those of extant gliding lizards, yet is also convergently similar. These findings pave the way for future biomechanical studies on the gliding locomotion of these emblematic fossil animals. Abstract The Late

Wing planform dependency on optimum supersonic airfoil
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017 When a wing of airplane is designed, it is necessary to have knowledge regarding planforms considered their optimum airfoils in order to design efficiently, because each wing planform has both of advantage and disadvantage. In this study, the wing design
