The Role of Motor and Environmental Visual Rhythms in Structuring Auditory Cortical Excitability

iScience, 2020
Summary: Previous studies indicate that motor sampling patterns modulate neuronal excitability in sensory brain regions by entraining brain rhythms, a process termed motor-initiated entrainment.

The Vertical Structure and Entrainment of Subglacial Melt Water Plumes

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2022
Basal melting of marine‐terminating glaciers, through its impact on the forces that control the flow of the glaciers, is one of the major factors determining sea level rise in a world of global warming.

Improved Direct Ink Writing of Liquid Metal Foams via Liquid Additives

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The ability to pattern liquid metal is useful for making soft electrical and thermal devices. Dispensing liquid metal from a nozzle naturally results in the formation of spheroidal droplets, making direct‐write printing challenging. Liquid metal foams containing pockets of air can extrude as filaments, albeit inconsistently.

The Future of Hydrogen‐Powered Aviation: Technologies, Challenges, and a Strategic Roadmap for Sustainable Decarbonization

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Hydrogen‐powered aviation offers a transformative pathway to zero‐emission flight by eliminating in‐flight CO2 emissions. Key considerations include propulsion systems (fuel cells and hydrogen combustion), cryogenic storage and insulation challenges, infrastructure and cost barriers, and supply‐chain constraints.

Restricting Copper Reconstruction with Ultrathin Polydopamine for Selective and Stable Electrochemical CO2 Reduction Reaction to C2 Products

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
An ultrathin polydopamine coating on copper microcubes mitigates the surface reconstruction during EC‐CO2RR. Copper nanocubes form on the surface of the microcubes in the early stages of the EC‐CO2RR, contributing to suppressed surface reconstruction and sustained Faradaic efficiency for C2 products.

The strength of neural entrainment to electronic music correlates with proxies of altered states of consciousness

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
In electronic music events, the driving four-on-the-floor music appears pivotal for inducing altered states of consciousness (ASCs). While various physiological mechanisms link repetitive auditory stimuli to ASCs, entrainment—a brainwave synchronization ...

Transient modeling of extraction columns: Parameter estimation, uncertainty analysis, and operation optimization

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite extensive modeling efforts in extraction research, transient column models are rarely applied in industry due to concerns regarding parameter identifiability and model reliability. To address this, we analyzed uncertainty propagation from estimated parameters in a previously introduced column model and assessed identifiability via ill ...
