Heterogeneous Wettability‐Based Construction of Two‐Phase Interfaces for Underwater Reversible Adhesion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 27, 13 May 2026.
The design employs heterogeneous wettability surfaces that construct stable oil‐water interfaces to achieve robust and rapid reversible adhesion. Linear enhancement of adhesion strength is realized through multi‐interface patterning. This adhesive enables rapid on‐demand detachment within five seconds via voltage‐induced electrolysis, offering a level ...

Rigorous derivation of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation in a 2D weakly nonlinear Stefan problem

open access: yes, 2009
In this paper we are interested in a rigorous derivation of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation (K--S) in a Free Boundary Problem. As a paradigm, we consider a two-dimensional Stefan problem in a strip, a simplified version of a solid-liquid interface ...

Uniqueness for cross-diffusion systems issuing from seawater intrusion problems

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2017
We consider a model mixing sharp and diffuse interface approaches for seawater intrusion phenomenons in confined and unconfined aquifers. More precisely, a phase field model is introduced in the boundary conditions on the virtual sharp interfaces. We

Electromagnetic Field Effects in Dialysis Membranes

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Hemodialysis efficiency strongly depends on membrane permeability, solute transport, and blood flow characteristics. External electromagnetic fields (magnetic and electric) can alter fluid dynamics, ionic motion, and nanoparticle‐assisted transport mechanisms within dialysis membranes.

Analytical Floor Response Spectra for Performance‐Based Seismic Design of Non‐structural Elements in Reinforced Concrete Frame Buildings

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1292-1312, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Damage to non‐structural elements significantly impacts the seismic performance of buildings in terms of economic and functionality losses. Consequently, performance‐based seismic design of non‐structural elements has become a key pillar of a comprehensive building‐seismic resilience strategy, for instance, through loss‐targeted earthquake ...

Global existence for seawater intrusion models: comparison between sharp interface and sharp-diffuse interface approaches

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2015
We study seawater intrusion problems in confined and unconfined aquifers. We compare from a mathematical point of view the sharp interface approach with the sharp-diffuse interface approach.

The periodic unfolding method for a class of parabolic problems with imperfect interfaces [PDF]

open access: yesESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis, 2014
In this paper, we use the adapted periodic unfolding method to study the homogeniza- tion and corrector problems for the parabolic problem in a two-component composite with e-periodic connected inclusions. The condition imposed on the interface is that the jump of the solution is propor- tional to the conormal derivative via a function of order e γ ...

Evaluating Approximations of River Channel Shape Using a National Cross‐Section Database

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Many hydrologic applications require basic information on the size and shape of river channels, but measuring cross section (XS) geometry in the field or via remote sensing can be costly and often provides only partial coverage. Given these challenges, we capitalized upon an existing data set of 46,971 XS from gaging stations to evaluate ...
