Shock wave enhanced turbulent mixing in a wide-speed-range strut-based scramjet combustor
Propulsion and EnergyThe efficient mixing of fuel and oxidizer in a scramjet combustor is a critical issue for achieving future wide-speed-range flight. A numerical study is conducted using Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations coupled with shear stress transport k-ω ...

Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.Since late 2021, serious allegations have been made against physicist Erwin Schrödinger, ranging from pedophilia to serial sexual abuse. These accusations have significantly tarnished the Nobel Prize winner's public reputation. The ongoing debate has repeatedly raised the question of whether, and to what extent, these grave allegations are justified ...

A Preconditioned Method for Rotating Flows at Arbitrary Mach Number
Modelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2011 An improved preconditioning is proposed for viscous flow computations in rotating and nonrotating frames at arbitrary Mach numbers. The key to the current method is the use of both free stream Mach number and rotating Mach number to construct a ...

The ageing holobiont: crosstalk between telomere dynamics, oxidative stress and the gut microbiome
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The gut tissue is at the frontline of early onset of ageing. It exhibits high cell turnover rates and rapid telomere shortening, which can have systemic effects on the developing or senescing organism. We conducted a literature review of studies on the crosstalk between telomere length dynamics, telomerase activity, oxidative stress, and gut ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Focusing on firm‐size heterogeneity, this study examines how institutional reform reshapes the effects of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) disclosure on firm value. Using 2019–2023 panel data on 1427 Japanese listed firms (before and after the 2022 Tokyo Stock Exchange reorganization and Corporate Governance Code revision), this ...

Large eddy simulation of weakly compressible turbulent flows around an airfoil
Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2014 The purpose of this study is to develop a numerical method for turbulent flows at low Mach number range. To account for the weak compressibility, we modify the time marching method of the usual incompressible scheme which is based on the elliptic ...

MXenes as a Versatile Platform for High‐Energy‐Density Asymmetric Supercapacitors
Carbon Energy, EarlyView.MXenes with high conductivity and tunable surface chemistry are reviewed as advanced electrodes for asymmetric supercapacitors. MAX‐phase synthesis, surface and interlayer engineering, defect modulation, and composite designs are discussed, highlighting enhanced ion transport, pseudocapacitance, energy density, cycling stability, and sustainable routes

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2019 In this article, we consider the low Mach number limit of the compressible nematic liquid crystal flows in a 3D bounded domain. We establish the uniform estimates with respect to the Mach number for the strong solutions with large initial data in a ...
