Towards a Better Understanding of Coastal Cliff Erosion in Waitemata Group Rock; Auckland, New Zealand.

open access: yes, 2007
The soft sedimentary deposits of the Waitemata Group which outcrop on the eastern coastline of the Auckland region are a coastal cliff erosion hazard.

Electrochemically Induced Oxide‐to‐Hydroxide Transformation Enables Fast Proton Transport for Enhanced Hydrogen Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An electrochemically induced transformation of polar MgO(111) into Mg(OH)2(001) creates a proton‐conductive hydroxide layer during hydrogen evolution. Operando synchrotron XRD and DFT reveal a low‐barrier Grotthuss proton‐hopping mechanism, establishing a feasible strategy for designing oxide‐hydroxide electrocatalysts with enhanced proton transport ...

Flexible Unusual Ternary‐Component Graded‐Modulus Dielectric Films with High‐Density Capacitive Energy Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hierarchical PP–LSR107–BaTiO3 nanocomposite films are fabricated by one‐step extrusion and stretching for roll‐to‐roll manufacture, combining high energy storage and processing flexibility. LSR107 surrounds BaTiO3‐rich regions, locating amorphous PP, decreasing defects, and introducing deep traps that homogenize the electric field and suppress charge ...

Second law of thermodynamics and the failure of rock materials

open access: yes, 2001
The relation of nonequilibrium thermodynamics to some failure and fracture theories of rock mechanics is investigated. The basic concepts are given to connect failure to the properties of material equations describing the elastic properties.

Thermoelectric Gating Organic Electrochemical Transistors Enabled by Printable Ionogels With n‐p Convertible Thermopower

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A type of thermoelectric ionogels with convertible n‐p thermopowers are demonstrated with Seebeck coefficients ranging from ‐3.61 to +9.74 mV K−1. Thus, thermoelectric gating organic electrochemical transistor is achieved by employing ionogel as thermoelectric modules and ionic dielectrics simultaneously, paving the road to self‐powered, highly ...

The computer simulation and prediction of rock fall [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This thesis deals with the study of rock falls using a mathematical model, codified for computer use, entitled GeoFall. GeoFall, which was developed by the author, allows predictions to be made of rock fall trajectories, run out distances and kinetic ...

Reaction‐Induced Reversible Reconstruction Enhanced Ni‐MgO/CaO Dual Functional Material for Stable CO2 Capture and In Situ Conversion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A highly dispersed NiO‐MgO solid solution (MgxNi1‐xO) is created in a hierarchically porous Ca‐based matrix to protect Ni and CaO nanoparticles against carbon deposition and sintering. Owing to the reversible reconstruction of MgxNi1‐xO, this superior structure is self‐regenerative in the calcium looping dry reforming of methane process, thereby ...

Trifunctional Kinetic Regulation Enables Low‐Defect Solution Grown Single Crystals for X‐Ray Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a molecular‐level kinetic regulation strategy employing iodoacetic acid (IAA) to simultaneously suppress point defects and solvent inclusion in solution‐grown Cs4PbI6 single crystals. The obtained crystals demonstrate significantly enhanced charge transport properties, enabling X‐ray detectors with high sensitivity, low noise, and ...

Persistence and tensile strength of incipient rock discontinuities

open access: yes, 2020
Rock discontinuities are fundamentally important to most rock engineering projects but predicting or measuring their properties such as roughness, aperture, shape and extent (persistence) are fraught with difficulty.
