Numerical study of cuttings transport of nanoparticle‐based drilling fluid
Engineering Reports, 2020 Cuttings transportation from the drill bit, through the annulus, to the surface is one of the most important functions performed by drilling fluid. The prediction of drilling fluid's performance to transport cuttings in the annulus is very complex task ...

Supercompliant Lattice Boosts n‐type AgSbTe2 Thermoelectrics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The supercompliant lattice design enables the first realization of n‐type electrical transport in AgSbTe2 by overcoming intrinsic electron‐killer defects and exceeding the doping limits imposed by the conventional Hume–Rothery rule. Accordingly, the best performance n‐type Ag0.8Na0.3Sb0.6Bi0.4Te2 sample achieves a low κ of 0.27 W·m−1·K−1 that ...

Flow-Induced Stresses and Displacements in Jointed Concrete Pipes Installed by Pipe Jacking Method [PDF]
, 2019 Transient flows result in unbalanced forces and high pressure in pipelines. Under these conditions, the combined effects of flow-induced forces along with sudden pipe displacements can create cracks in the pipeline, especially at the junctions.
