A Study of the Truncated Square Pyramid Geometry for Enhancement of Super-hydrophobicity [PDF]
Journal of Bionic Engineering, 2020 AbstractSuper-hydrophobic surfaces are quite common in nature, inspiring people to continually explore its water-repellence property and applications to our lives. It has been generally agreed that the property of super-hydrophobicity is mainly contributed by the microscale or nanoscale (or even smaller) architecture on the surface.

Variable-Geometry Solar Sailing: The Possibilities of the Quasi-Rhombic Pyramid [PDF]
, 2014 Variable geometry solar sailing potentially offers enhanced delta-V capabilities and new orbital solutions. We propose a device with such capabilities, based upon an adjustable quasi-rhombic pyramid sail geometry, and examine the benefits that can be derived from this additional flexibility.

Copper Clusters Containing Hydrides in Trigonal Pyramidal Geometry [PDF]
Inorganic Chemistry, 2020 Structurally precise copper hydrides [Cu11H2{S2P(OiPr)2}6(C≡CR)3], R = Ph (1), C6H4F (2), and C6H4OMe (3), were first synthesized from the polyhydrido copper cluster [Cu20H11{S2P(OiPr)2}9] with nine equivalents of terminal alkynes. Later, their isolated yields were significantly improved by direct synthesis from [Cu(CH3CN)4](PF6), [NH4][S2P(OiPr)2 ...
