Covalently bonded interfaces for polymer/graphene composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The interface is well known for taking a critical role in the determination of the functional and mechanical properties of polymer composites. Previous interface research has focused on utilising reduced graphene oxide that is limited by a low structural

The “Skipping Rope” Technique: A Novel Strategy for Distal Burr Entrapment During Rotational Atherectomy

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe the “skipping rope technique” for managing burr entrapment during rotational atherectomy. Sequential counterclockwise rotational force is applied to the drive shaft, generating alternative torque dynamics. This maneuver provides a safe method to disengage a stuck rotaburr, offering operators an additional strategy for this ...

Advances in Triboelectric Nanogenerators With Rotating Structure

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
The rotating TENG has been widely studied for its superiorities of simple structure, high efficiency, and stable output. This review introduced the four different principles of rotating TENG and offered a thorough summary for performance and application research through three‐level classification. Importantly, the current existing problems, challenges,

Automated Process Optimization in a Novel Triple Shaft Mixer with Adaptive Mixing Modes

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
A novel multi‐purpose mixer with adjustable blade angle and a coaxial stirrer is developed, providing three degrees of freedom. An optimization strategy is integrated to autonomously identify optimal operating conditions through automated tests. The current draw of the main stirrer serves as the optimization criterion, while stirrer speeds, directions,

Research on the performance of pump-turbine during the transition process from pump mode to turbine mode

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research
In current engineering, the transition process of pump turbines from pump to turbine mode mainly includes the shutdown process of pump operating and the startup process of turbine operating, and the switching of working conditions mostly depends on the ...
