Digitizing the Filtration Interface: A Smart, Modular Janus Wood Platform for Self‐Reporting Oil/Water Remediation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work developed a smart Janus wood membrane integrating asymmetric wettability with built‐in electrical sensing for oil‐water separation. The membrane achieved > 99.5% separation efficiency and high flux by leveraging wood's natural anisotropic pore structure.

Laboratory Investigation The Effect of Porosity of Permeable Obstacle on Control of Gravity Current [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و مهندسی آبیاری, 2017
Gravity current is a phenomenon caused by density difference between two fluids and due to this phenomenon the fine sediments can be moved to the body dam and as a result causes for many serious problems for dam intake.

Extinction of lean near-limit methane/air flames at elevated pressures under normal- and reduced-gravity

open access: yes, 2011
perimentally at evaluated pressures and under normal- and micro-gravity conditions utilizing the 3.5 s drop tower of the National Microgravity Laboratory of China. The results showed that under micro-gravity conditions the natural convection is minimized

Pickering‐Engineered Microparticles for Magnetically Guided Motion and Light‐Triggered Catalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetically responsive wax microparticles stabilized by hematite cubes through the Pickering emulsification strategy are developed, showing controlled size, motion, and light‐activated catalytic activity. Annealing under a magnetic field enhances their mobility and steering.

The rate-limiting mechanism for the heterogeneous burning of iron in normal gravity and reduced gravity

open access: yes, 2007
This thesis presents a research project in the field of oxygen system fire safety relating to the heterogeneous burning of iron in normal gravity and reduced gravity. Fires involving metallic components in oxygen systems often occur, with devastating and

Two-phase alkali-metal experiments in reduced gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Future space missions envision the use of large nuclear reactors utilizing either a single or a two-phase alkali-metal working fluid. The design and analysis of such reactors require state-of-the-art computer codes that can properly treat alkali-metal ...

Vorticity‐Driven µ‐Platelet Rotation and Selective Packing for Vertical Thermal–Electrical Interconnects

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce a capillary‐filtering‐based particle‐filling (CFPF) process that simultaneously forms vertical thermal pathways and electrical vias within µ‐pores. In situ microfluidic analysis reveals that capillary‐driven velocity gradients generate vorticity that governs µ‐platelet rotation and vertical alignment.

Combustion of Submillimeter Heptane/Methanol and Heptane/Ethanol Droplets in Reduced Gravity

open access: yesJournal of Combustion, 2013
Reduced-gravity experiments were performed on combustion of droplets composed of n-heptane mixed with methanol or ethanol. The initial alcohol mass fraction in a droplet was 0% (pure heptane) or 5%. The experiments were performed at 0.1 MPa and 25°C with

Performance Evaluation of Sub-Grid Orographic Parameterization in the WRF Model over Complex Terrain in Central Asia

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
The terrain of Central Asia is complex and rugged over mountains. Consequently, wind speed is overestimated over mountains and plains when using the Weather Research Forecast (WRF) model in winter.
