Superhydrophobic surfaces on supercritical airfoils: mitigating ice formation and enhancing performance

International Journal of Thermofluids
Superhydrophobic surfaces are characterized by low surface energy and micro- to nano-scale roughness. These properties cause fluids to slide over the surface, thereby reducing drag and adhesion, and resulting in a lower drag coefficient.

High‐Gain Ag2Te/MoS2 Hybrid Photodetectors for Short‐Wave Infrared Imaging

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A precision‐engineered short‐wave infrared image sensor based on a 0D/2D Ag2Te/MoS2 hybrid structure is demonstrated in this work. The device exploits photodoping at the nanoscale interface to achieve broadband detection from visible to infrared wavelengths with high responsivity and fast response.

Drag coefficients derived from ocean current and temperature profiles at high wind speeds

Tellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2018
Two bottom-up methods based on the turbulence closure and bulk model were utilised to estimate drag coefficients at high wind speeds based on ocean current and temperature profiles observed by two subsurface buoys during Typhoon Megi in the South China ...

Boundary layer, skin friction, and boattail pressure measurements from the YF-12 airplane at Mach numbers up to 3 [PDF]

, 1978
In-flight measurements of boundary layer and skin friction data were made on YF-12 airplanes for Mach numbers between 2.0 and 3.0. Boattail pressures were also obtained for Mach numbers between 0.7 and 3.0 with Reynolds numbers up to four hundred million.

Self‐Regulating Sodium‐Ion Battery Materials: From Phase Reconstruction to Functional Activation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐regulating sodium‐ion batteries hinge on programmable phase behavior in layered oxides, interphases that renew without growth, and electrolytes that steer solvation and chemistry. This review distills mechanisms into design rules that span composition, site and entropy tuning, and self‐buffering anodes, linking operando evidence to choices and ...

Oxygen Evolution Reaction Catalysts for Acidic‐Media CO2 Electrolyzers

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Acidic‐media CO2 electroreduction (CO2R) could decarbonize chemical production, despite relying on rare‐earth elements for anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Transferring the learnings from mature sister technologies (water electrolysis) could accelerate technological development.
