Who Knows Best What the Next Year Will Hold for You? The Validity of Direct and Personality‐based Predictions of Future Life Experiences Across Different Perceivers

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Personality, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract This study explored the validity of person judgements by targets and their acquaintances (‘informants’) in longitudinally predicting a broad range of psychologically meaningful life experiences. Judgements were gathered from four sources (targets, N = 189; and three types of informants, N = 1352), and their relative predictive validity was ...

Photometric Diagnostic of the Sheath Dynamics and Electron Density Trends in Single and Dual Frequency CCRF Argon Plasmas

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A methodological study is presented on a noninvasive photometric diagnostic for determining trends in electron density and sheath dynamics in single (1f) and a dual (2f) radio frequency capacitively coupled (CCRF) argon plasmas. The 1f discharges are operated at 13.56 and 27.12 MHz, respectively, while the 2f discharge is driven by both ...

Local realities, global discourses and decolonising the curriculum in a post‐92 UK context: Academic voices on enacting decolonial curriculum change

open access: yesThe Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explored how lecturers in a post‐92 UK university conceptualise and enact decolonial curriculum principles within their teaching and programme design. Drawing on semi‐structured interviews with academic staff across multiple disciplines, the research adopts a qualitative, phenomenologically informed approach to examine the interplay

Study on fracture parameter calibration and failure characteristics of rock with hole and crack

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The SIF and plastic zone equations for a single hole and crack have been derived. The model's failure state leads to the identification of four types of cracks. The plastic zone increases with increased brittleness and decreased crack length. Abstract Cracks within the surrounding rock of roadways significantly affect their stability and failure ...

Review and prospects of shear test of bolted rock joints

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The laboratory shear test equipment, test method, and numerical simulation of bolted rock joints were summarized. The shortcomings and limitations of the current research were analyzed, and the research prospects were proposed. Abstract Rock bolting is a critical approach in geotechnical engineering for supporting weak rocks.

Boundary Layer Meshing and Wall Functions Selection for Numerical Simulation of Solid–Liquid Two‐Phase Flow

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates the optimal near‐wall treatment schemes (first‐layer height and wall function type) for solid–liquid two‐phase CFD of suspended sediment, which are correlated with particle size and flow velocity. ABSTRACT Near‐wall treatment (boundary‐layer meshing and wall functions) is a major uncertainty in solid–liquid two‐phase CFD of ...

Polymer Stress‐Tensor Calculation for a Laminar Submerged Viscoelastic Jet Flow Using Different Constitutive Models

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
This study presents an efficient method to compute polymer stress‐tensor components in viscoelastic laminar jet flows using models such as Oldroyd‐B, Giesekus, PTT, and FENE. By assuming a stationary and parallel flow, the methodology significantly reduces computational cost.

Efficient Numerical Framework for Geothermal Energy Production Optimization in Fracture‐Controlled Reservoirs

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
We introduce an efficient open‐source numerical framework for the automated search for the placements of injection and production wells in hot fracture‐controlled reservoirs that sustainably optimize geothermal energy production. We model the reservoirs as discrete fracture networks in 3D. The fluid flow and heat transport in the reservoirs are modeled

How (not) to Cage an Electron: The Perfluoro Cage Effect as an Extrinsic Molecular Property

open access: yesHelvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
A rigorous definition within Kohn–Sham density functional theory is presented for the notion of an caged electron inside perfluorinated fullerenes as radical anions. ABSTRACT The notion of a (molecular) electron cage was coined for the unique hosting capacity of perfluorocubane, suggesting the “encapsulation of an electron” within the highly symmetric ...

Breaking the Exponential: Decoherence‐Driven Power‐Law Spontaneous Emission in Waveguide Quantum Electrodynamics

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Introducing dynamical dephasing into the photon modes of a waveguide causes spontaneous emission to switch from conventional exponential decay to a robust power‐law behavior visible at short times. The power law arises from photon diffusion in a dynamically disordered environment, uncovering a previously unexplored, decoherence‐induced pathway to ...
