Design optimization of Bakelite support for LNG ISO tank 40 ft using finite element analysis

open access: yesCurved and Layered Structures
Design optimization of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) ISO tank is essential to ensure structural integrity while minimizing weight. This approach enables the identification of efficient material distributions under critical loading conditions, enhancing ...

Vortex Characterization and Parametric Study of Miniature Vortex Generators and Their Near-Field Boundary Layer Effects

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Delaying the onset of laminar-turbulent transition is an attractive method in reducing skin friction drag, especially on streamlined bodies where Tollmien–Schlichting instabilities are the dominating mechanism for transition. Miniature Vortex Generators (

Hazard assessment of a pair of glacial lakes in Nepal Himalaya: unfolding combined outbursts of Upper and Lower Barun

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2023
Due to climate change, the future Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOF) risk is more likely in the Himalayas. Despite several GLOF studies, little attention has been given to the combined surge that can result from a pair of upstream-downstream glacial ...

DigiChrom: A Domain Ontology for Semantic Representation of Trivalent Chromium Platings and Its Large Language Model‐Based Alignment With Multiple Mid‐Level Ontologies

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Digitalizing electroplating requires both domain knowledge and interoperability. This work introduces PlatOn, a domain ontology for trivalent chromium plating and coating characterization, and a hybrid pipeline that aligns it to a mid‐level reference ontology by combining eight similarity metrics with language model reasoning. Expert‐validated mappings

Mechanisms of microparticle lateral manipulation using viscoelastic fluids in microchannels with triangle patterns array

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics
Microfluidic manipulation is widely used in lab-scale medical, chemical and environmental research. Passive methods of microparticle manipulation utilise only hydraulic forces in the fluid domain to enable size sorting, separation and purification of ...

Morphology, Transport, and Dynamics of Protein Adsorption in Open‐Cell Metal Foam

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Stainless steel (SS) open‐cell foams are shown to adsorb more protein per unit area than previously reported 316L SS and chromium oxide surfaces under static and flow conditions. An integrated approach combining 3D pore imaging, flow simulation, and protein adsorption experiments characterizes the foam’s performance.

FastNano Liquid: An Automated Platform for Small‐Angle X‐ray Scattering‐Based Materials Discovery

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We present FastNano Liquid, an automated small‐ and wide‐angle X‐ray scattering platform for the combined synthesis and characterization of (nano)materials. The platform is coupled to varied reactor workflows for both in situ studies of reaction kinetics and ex situ screening of synthesis conditions to support machine learning‐guided exploration ...

Towards the design of energy-efficient bubble clusters and operation strategies for process control in sonochemical reactors

open access: yesUltrasonics Sonochemistry
Energy efficiency and process control are critical challenges in scaling sonochemical applications. To address this, we introduce a numerical optimisation framework focused on designing pre-seeded bubble clusters driven by impulse ultrasound to minimise ...

Electrostatic Superlattices Beyond 1:1 Stoichiometry

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer‐mediated charge regulation drives two hierarchical routes to higher‐stoichiometry nanoparticle superlattices. Tuning the polymer's molecular weight promotes progressive interstitial filling, transforming ZnS into the fully occupied CaF2${\rm CaF}_2$ lattice. Exchanging polymer assignment between large and small nanoparticles instead breaks CsCl
