A light-weight and high thermal performance graphene heat pipe [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Heat pipe is one of the most efficient tools for heat dissipation in electronics and power systems. Currently, heat pipes are usually made of copper, aluminum or stainless steel. Due to their relatively high density and limited heat transmission capacity, heat pipes are facing urgent challenges in power electronics and power modules.

Active Hydrogen for Electrochemical Ammonia Synthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of the active hydrogen (H*) for electrochemical ammonia synthesis with particular attention given to the regulation of H* generation and consumption to suppress the competition of hydrogen evolution reaction and enhance the yield, selectivity, and Faradaic efficiency of ammonia.

3D Pipe Network Reconstruction Based on Structure from Motion with Incremental Conic Shape Detection and Cylindrical Constraint [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Pipe inspection is a critical task for many industries and infrastructure of a city. The 3D information of a pipe can be used for revealing the deformation of the pipe surface and position of the camera during the inspection. In this paper, we propose a 3D pipe reconstruction system using sequential images captured by a monocular endoscopic camera. Our

Synchronization of organ pipes: experimental observations and modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report measurements on the synchronization properties of organ pipes. First, we investigate influence of an external acoustical signal from a loudspeaker on the sound of an organ pipe. Second, the mutual influence of two pipes with different pitch is analyzed.

Efficient and Scalable Radiative Cooling for Photovoltaics Using Solution‐Processable and Solar‐Transparent Mesoporous Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Graded refractive index (GRI) structures are prepared from the layer‐by‐layer spray coating of the mesoporous SiO2 nanoparticles, showing high solar transparency and thermal emissivity. Under outdoor conditions, after 50 days, the GRI‐coated photovoltaics show on average 6.65 ± 1.48 °C lower than that of the non‐coated references, maintaining 80.9 ± 8 ...

Superconducting pipes and levitating magnets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Motivated by a beautiful demonstration of the Faraday's and Lenz's law in which a small neodymium magnet falls slowly through a conducting non-ferromagnetic tube, we consider the dynamics of a magnet falling through a superconducting pipe. Unlike the case of normal conducting pipes, in which the magnet quickly reaches the terminal velocity, inside a ...

Direct Ink Writing of Conductive Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the use of direct ink writing (DIW) for fabricating conductive hydrogels with customizable 3D structures. It outlines the rheological requirements for successful DIW, followed by an exploration of the materials and ink formulations used to impart electronic and/or ionic conductivity to hydrogels while maintaining printability ...
