Programmable Multi‐Axially Aligned Aerogels via Sequential Freeze‐Casting for Tailored Anisotropy and Tunable Mechanics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional single‐gradient freeze‐casting typically produces unidirectional porous architectures with limited transverse connectivity. The Sequential Hybridization by Infiltration and Freeze‐casting Technique (SHIFT) addresses this constraint by integrating secondary aligned structures within a preformed primary scaffold.

Bioinspired Passive Flow Routing to Mitigate Thrombosis in Prosthetic Heart Valves and Cardiovascular Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bioinspired passive flow routing mitigates thrombosis in cardiovascular devices by redirecting a small fraction of forward flow into stagnation‐prone regions. Inspired by avian alula and aircraft slat mechanisms, strategically placed routing channels restore washout around mechanical heart valves, reducing low‐shear exposure by four orders of magnitude

Hydraulic modelling of floods

open access: yes
Hydraulic modelling has become a widely accepted practice in flood forecasting and other flood related studies all over the world. However, in order to use hydraulic models responsibly we should examine their performance critically and be aware of their ...

A Smart Fluid‐Hydraulic System Based on MRF Valve Control and Its Application in Flexible Grasping

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces a smart fluid hydraulic system using MRF valve control for flexible gripping. An MRF‐MSV with an integrated excitation coil and micro‐textured damping channels is designed and validated; micro‐texturing increases hydraulic resistance. Coupled with a soft actuator, the MRF‐MSV enables dynamic bending and grasping.

Dalton Medal Lecture: How far can we go in distributed hydrological modelling? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This paper considers distributed hydrological models in hydrology as an expression of a pragmatic realism. Some of the problems of distributed modelling are discussed including the problem of nonlinearity, the problem of scale, the problem of ...

Interactions between roughness and topography in hydraulic models

open access: yes, 2007
Analysis of river flow using hydraulic modelling and its implications in derived environ-mental applications are inextricably connected with the way in which the river boundary shape is represented. This relationship is scale-dependent upon the modelling

Sputtering Mechanism of an Unsintered Organic–Inorganic Sputtering Target for Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
An unsintered MAPbI3 sputtering target fabricated via a mechanochemical route enables large‐area vacuum deposition of perovskite absorber layers, while revealing an ion–photon coupled decomposition mechanism that governs target erosion and film composition under RF plasma exposure.

Modeling of transpiration reduction in van Genuchten-Mualem type soils

open access: yes, 2009
We derive an analytic expression for the matric flux potential (M) for van Genuchten-Mualem (VGM) type soils which can also be written in terms of a converging infinite series.
