Simulation‐Based Analysis of Insert Pull‐Out in Nickel‐Polyurethane Hybrid Foams Using CT‐Derived Geometries

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
CT‐based finite element simulations combined with in situ X‐ray computed tomography are used to analyze insert pull‐out in nickel‐coated polymer foams. Despite variations in material parameters, deformation consistently concentrates within a narrow annular region around the insert.

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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

Spatial and Temporal Adaptive Gap-Filling Method Producing Daily Cloud-Free NDSI Time Series

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020
The normalized difference snow index (NDSI) is the most popular snow detection index. Due to cloud cover, it is difficult to produce complete and gap-free NDSI datasets.

Classifying direct normal irradiance 1‑minute temporal variability from spatial characteristics of geostationary satellite-based cloud observations

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 2020
Variability of solar surface irradiances in the 1‑minute range is of interest especially for solar energy applications. Eight variability classes were previously defined for the 1 min resolved direct normal irradiance (DNI) variability inside an hour. In

Trust in the Cloud

open access: yesInformation Security Technical Report, 2011
Cloud infrastructure is expected to be able to support Internet scale critical applications (e.g. hospital systems and smart grid systems). Critical infrastructure services and organizations alike will not outsource their critical applications to a public Cloud without strong assurances that their requirements will be enforced.

Amphoteric Cu‐Doping Leading to High Thermoelectric Performance in p‐Type Bismuth Antimony Telluride

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study shows that Cu plays two opposite roles in p‐type Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 depending on the processing route. Under thermodynamic‐equilibrium bulk‐synthesis, Cu mainly occupies cation sites, increases hole concentration, preserves mobility, and slightly reduces lattice heat transport. The best‐performing composition among the investigated series reaches

Three Rules for the Decrease of Tropical Convection With Global Warming

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2022
Tropical convection is expected to decrease with warming, in a variety of ways. Specific incarnations of this idea include the “stability‐iris” hypothesis of decreasing anvil cloud coverage, as well as the decrease of both tropospheric and cloud‐base ...

Polymer Side‐Chain Electronic Effects Regulating Solvation Sheath for Low‐Temperature and High‐Voltage Lithium Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work reveals the influence of polymer side‐chain electronic effects on the Li+ solvation sheath in gel polymer electrolytes. Electron‐donating side chains induce the strong Li+ coordination and FDMA‐dominated solvation, impeding Li+ desolvation, whereas electron‐withdrawing side chains weaken Li+ coordination, facilitating anion‐rich solvation and
