Synchronizing Tunable Luminescence and Shape Morphing in a Metal Nanocluster–Enabled Hydrogel Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A nanocluster–gel platform is developed to synchronously integrate tunable luminescence and shape morphing under a single stimulus, with emission programmability encoded through cluster size modulation (Au10 → Au18). Solvent‐induced shape–optical transitions are visualized in a lotus‐shaped gel that dynamically folds and dims, enabling rapid (< 5 s ...

Characterization of Droplet Formation in Ultrasonic Spray Coating: Influence of Ink Formulation Using Phase Doppler Anemometry and Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study explores how machine learning models, trained on small experimental datasets obtained via Phase Doppler Anemometry (PDA), can accurately predict droplet size (D32) in ultrasonic spray coating (USSC). By capturing the influence of ink complexity (solvent, polymer, nanoparticles), power, and flow rate, the model enables precise droplet control

Seismic damage probabilities for segmented buried pipelines

open access: yes, 2011
Having aging buried pipeline systems, many lifeline utility (e.g., water) companies worried about the performance of their systems against various hazards. For example, water distribution engineers of water utility companies need methodology that would assist in estimating the optimum time to replace water mains.
