Enhancement of drag reduction in particle-laden turbulent flows under span-wise wall oscillation

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
We report that span-wise sinusoidal wall oscillations can significantly reduce drag in wall-bounded turbulent flows laden with neutrally buoyant, finite-size spherical particles—surpassing the drag reduction observed in corresponding single-phase flows ...

Coupled CFD-DEM Numerical Simulation of Hydrothermal Liquefaction (HTL) of Sludge Flocs to Biocrude Oil in a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) in a Scale-Up Study

open access: yesEnergies
A multiphase model of hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) using the computational fluid dynamics coupling discrete element method (CFD-DEM) is used to simulate biocrude oil production from sludge flocs in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR ...

Design Strategies and Emerging Applications of High‐Performance Flexible Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors underpin wearable and soft electronics. This review links sensing physics, including contact resistance modulation, quantum tunneling and percolation, to unified materials/structure design. We highlight composite and graded architectures, interfacial/porous engineering, and microstructured 3D conductive networks

Multi-Model Formulation for Compressible Multiphysics and Multiphase Flows: An Efficient Coupling Algorithm

open access: yes, 2009
A coupling between a general multiphase flows model and a two-phase dilute flow model is presented. Both models are based on Eulerian approach (two fluids models) and compressible flows are considered.

Residual‐Lithium‐to‐LiF Conversion Enables a LiF–Fluorinated Carbon Interphase for Reconstruction‐Resistant Ni‐Rich Cathodes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A fluorine‐rich acrylate monomer (PFHEA) was solvent‐free applied to NCM90 and thermally decomposed under Ar to convert residual lithium into LiF and form a pre‐built LiF/fluorinated amorphous carbon (LiF/FC) interphase. The LiF/FC layer suppresses NiO rock‐salt reconstruction and microcrack propagation, lowers interfacial resistance, and improves Li ...

A new matrix for multiphase couplings in a membrane porous medium [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, 2018
SummaryThe empirical Darcy's law of water transport in porous media, Fick's law of chemical diffusion, and Fourier's law of thermal transport have been widely used in geophysics/geochemistry for over 150 years. However, the strong couplings between water, temperature, and chemicals in a membrane porous medium have made these laws inapplicable and ...

3D Printing Innovations in Polymeric Porous and Patterned Architecture

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymeric foams occupy a unique structural space between dense solids and open networks, where engineered void fraction governs mechanical compliance, thermal resistance, and mass transport. Additive manufacturing now enables precise spatial control over cellular architecture, unlocking designer foam structures across applications spanning crash ...

Poromechanical controls on spontaneous imbibition in earth materials

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Over the last century, the state of stress in the earth’s upper crust has undergone rapid changes because of human activities associated with fluid withdrawal and injection in subsurface formations.

Enhancement of Dielectric Breakdown Strength and Recoverable Energy Density in Three‐Dimensional Heterointerfaces on BaTiO3–PbZrO3–PbTiO3 Films via Room‐Temperature Nano‐Clustering

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A room‐temperature aerosol deposition process yields multiphase nano‐clustered dielectric capacitors containing discrete BaTiO3, PbZrO3, and PbTiO3 crystals. This architecture creates three‐dimensional heterointerfaces that induce interfacial charge trapping and effectively inhibit breakdown propagation.
