CFD Analysis of Dual‐Layer PCM Roofs for Thermal Mitigation in Residential Buildings

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a computational fluid dynamics analysis of dual‐layer phase change material (PCM) roofs for passive cooling in residential buildings under the hot and humid climate of Bangladesh. A three‐dimensional transient model was developed in ANSYS Fluent using the enthalpy–porosity approach to simulate coupled heat conduction ...

Enhanced blue emission in silica‐confined mixed‐halide perovskite quantum dots via releasing residual stress

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
Residual tensile stress is identified as a key factor responsible for the low luminous efficiency in silica‐confined blue‐emitting CsPb(Cl/Br)3 quantum dots. A hydrothermal treatment enables stress release in these quantum dots and significantly enhances their luminous efficiency.

Urban Heat Island in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East: Multi‐City Approach in Regional Climate Modelling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study presents that the WRF model, coupled with bulk urban parameterization, effectively captures the summer urban heat island (UHI) patterns across the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East, showing stronger night‐time surface UHIs (5°C–6°C) and daytime surface cool islands (up to 12.5°C).

Multifunctional silica aerogel-infused paint for self-cleaning and radiative cooling

open access: yesJournal of Materiomics
Massive energy is consumed to cool buildings for comfortable life in hot climates due to indoor air-conditioning, which necessitates the passive daytime radiative cooling of buildings.

Seasonal Predictions and Their Applications in the Mediterranean Region: Part I—Sources of Predictability and Prediction Skill

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The ability to predict climate fluctuations at seasonal timescales offers significant socio‐economic benefits. However, limited understanding of predictability mechanisms and model errors hinders forecast quality. Recent research has improved forecasting systems and data quality.

Applications of a Novel Wireless System for Real‐Time Atmospheric Corrosion Monitoring

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
Developed monitoring system is a powerful tool for real‐time atmospheric corrosion monitoring. Humidity plays a critical role in the corrosion process. Limiting environmental parameters inducing maximum corrosion vary depending on the pollutants present. A monitoring system can be used in a wide range of scientific and practical applications.
