Cavitation vortex evolution and alleviation in Francis turbines during load reduction: Numerical insights for grid stability-oriented blade optimization

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management: X
In the context of flexible grid regulation, Francis turbines often operate under off-design conditions with frequent load transitions, during which cavitation vortices pose serious stability challenges. This study investigates the evolution of cavitating

Influence of Gurney Flap and Leading-Edge/Trailing-Edge Flaps on the Stall Characteristics and Aeroacoustic Performance of Airfoils

open access: yesFluids
In aerospace, flow control techniques have improved the separation flow characteristics around airfoils by various means. In this paper, the delayed detached eddy simulation (DDES) technique is used to simulate the detailed flow field around the NACA0021

Numerical simulation of flow characteristics behind the aerodynamic performances on an airfoil with leading edge protuberances

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2017
This article presents a numerical investigation of the effects of leading-edge protuberances on airfoil stall and post-stall performance. An improved delayed detached eddy simulation (IDDES) method was adopted.

Solution‐Processed Thin‐Film Transistors With Tunable Temporal Dynamics for Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Solution‐processed CNT and CNT/P3HT ion‐gated transistors exhibit materials‐defined synaptic timescales: fast CNT devices for high‐frequency spiking and slow hybrid devices for temporal integration. Embedding these dynamics into coupled reservoir‐computing and spiking neural network simulations reveals that a Hybrid‐Reservoir / CNT‐SNN architecture ...

Vortex leading edge flap assembly for supersonic airplanes

open access: yes, 1997
A leading edge flap (16) for supersonic transport airplanes is disclosed. In its stowed position, the leading edge flap forms the lower surface of the wing leading edge up to the horizontal center of the leading edge radius.

Powering Nanocrystal‐Based Heat Engines With Light‐Emitting Metasurfaces That Influence Their Temperature

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Metasurfaces and other structured photonic environments can dramatically modify the absorption and/or light emission of semiconductors. However, the consequences of these changes on the temperature of the system are not well understood. The authors address this problem for colloidal nanocrystals and leverage their findings to convert light into ...

Pull‐and‐Push Nanotherapeutic Hydrogels: Scavenging Inflammatory Triggers While Driving Tissue Regeneration in Burn Wounds

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A nanounit‐assembled hydrogel employing a “pull‐and‐push” strategy simultaneously scavenges pro‐inflammatory cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and delivers regenerative therapeutics in response to burn‐induced hyperthermia. By repolarizing macrophages and promoting angiogenesis, this multifunctional platform accelerates burn wound healing, offering a blueprint for
