The Future of Hydrogen‐Powered Aviation: Technologies, Challenges, and a Strategic Roadmap for Sustainable Decarbonization

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Hydrogen‐powered aviation offers a transformative pathway to zero‐emission flight by eliminating in‐flight CO2 emissions. Key considerations include propulsion systems (fuel cells and hydrogen combustion), cryogenic storage and insulation challenges, infrastructure and cost barriers, and supply‐chain constraints.

Self-oscillations in an Alpha Stirling Engine: a bifurcation analysis

open access: yes, 2019
We study a thermo-mechanical system comprised of an alpha Stirling engine and a flywheel from the perspective of dynamical systems theory. Thermodynamics establish a static relation between the flywheel's angle and the forces exerted by the two power ...

Scalable Liquid‐Phase Exfoliation of h‐BN for Solar‐Reflective and Thermally Stable Polymer Aerogels

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
High‐pressure homogenization exfoliates hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) into stable nanosheets, which are incorporated into PVA, CMC, and HEC matrices to form lightweight composite aerogels. Tuning h‐BN loading (0–50 wt%) transforms the structure from porous to densely packed, tailoring optical, thermal, and mechanical properties. An optimized PVA/20 wt%

Autonomous Machine Learning‐Based Classification and Arrangement of Submillimeter Objects Using a Capillary Force Gripper

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This study presents an automated system integrating a capillary force gripper and machine learning‐based object detection for sorting and placing submillimeter objects. The system achieved stable and simultaneous manipulation of four object types, with an average task time of 86.0 seconds and a positioning error of 157 ± 84 µm, highlighting its ...

FastCat: Autonomous Discovery of Multielement Layered Double Hydroxide Alloy Catalysts for Alkaline Oxygen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐guided self‐driving laboratory screened over 500 nickel‐based layered double‐hydroxide catalysts for alkaline oxygen evolution. Out of the eight metals, the robot uncovered a quaternary Ni–Fe–Cr–Co catalysts requiring only 231 mV overpotential to reach 20 mA cm−2.

Patient‐Mounted Neuro Optical Coherence Tomography for Targeted Minimally Invasive Micro‐Resolution Volumetric Imaging in Brain In Vivo

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
Herein, a patient‐mounted neuro optical coherence tomography system that integrates a 5 degrees‐of‐freedom skull‐mounted robot (Skullbot) with a 0.6 mm neuroendoscope for targeted, minimally invasive deep brain imaging, is developed. The system offers high‐resolution imaging with precise deployment, demonstrated through successful tumor imaging in a ...

Hierarchical fringe tracking

open access: yes, 2014
The limiting magnitude is a key issue for optical interferometry. Pairwise fringe trackers based on the integrated optics concepts used for example in GRAVITY seem limited to about K=10.5 with the 8m Unit Telescopes of the VLTI, and there is a general ...
