Personal Climatization Systems—A Review on Existing and Upcoming Concepts

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
To accomplish the current climate goals of the federal republic of Germany, energy efficiency within the building and automotive sector must improve considerably. One possible way to reduce the high amount of energy required for heating, ventilation, and

Fully Printed Electrocaloric Heat Pump

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A system based on a flexible printed PEDOT:PSS/P(VDF‐TrFE‐CFE) electrocaloric membrane. The membrane periodically alternates between the cold and hot sides following its electrocaloric cycle and successfully generates a temperature difference. The entire fabrication process is industrially scalable, cost‐effective, and based on widely accessible ...

Compact and stable discontinuous Galerkin methods for convection-diffusion problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present a new scheme, the compact discontinuous Galerkin 2 (CDG2) method, for solving nonlinear convection-diffusion problems together with a detailed comparison to other well-accepted DG methods.

Plasmon‐Induced Optothermal Manipulation of Colloidal Particles and Biological Entities Resilient to Saline Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The particle with high surface hydrophilicity exhibits strong thermophoretic attraction, as its dense hydration layer enhances the role of interfacial water molecules in determining thermophoretic mobility over other ionic effects. This finding elucidates the mechanism underlying the robust thermophoretic accumulation of Escherichia coli in high ...

Omnidirectional Ultra‐Broadband Cu/TiO2 Metasurface Absorbers for High‐Efficiency Solar Thermal Conversion and Photothermal Plasmon‐Driven Catalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Metasurface shows selective solar–thermal energy conversion with high‐activity solar/laser‐driven chemistry. The breakthrough is co‐designing broadband FP‐cavity + plasmonic LSPR/SLR resonances in an ultra‐thin metamaterial so that it not only harvests the most efficient proportion of solar radiation but also suppresses mid and IR emissivity. Moreover,

Stable Machine‐Learning Parameterization of Subgrid Processes in a Comprehensive Atmospheric Model Learned From Embedded Convection‐Permitting Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Modern climate projections often suffer from inadequate spatial and temporal resolution due to computational limitations, resulting in inaccurate representations of sub‐grid processes.

An analysis of convection in a mushy layer with a deformable permeable interface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We study the dynamics of a mushy layer in directional solidification for the case of a thin near-eutectic mush with a deformable and permeable mush–liquid interface.

On–Off Switchable Micromotors for Use in Steerable Microvehicles

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Electrically controllable micromotors and microvehicles are developed by tuning the diffusion of the fuel. Self‐propelled micromotors using bubble propulsion show great promise for miniaturized devices with multiuse purposes such as cargo delivery and sensing. However, there is currently no method to electrically switch the micromotors on or off. Here,
