A Magnetic‐Driven Self‐Rotation‐Stabilized Miniature Swimming Robot

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the stable rotational descent of seeds in nature, this study designs a magnetic‐driven self‐rotation‐stabilized miniature swimming robot (MSMSR). Based on a resonance‐driven strategy, the robot exhibits high swimming performance, offering enhanced directional swimming and improved resistance to water flow disturbances compared to existing ...

Hypergravity-exacerbated cracking in high-speed rotating 7075 aluminum blades

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology
On Earth, high-speed rotating blades and rotors experience hypergravity, which is mainly derived from centrifugal force. Aluminum alloys are widely used in high-speed rotating machines.

Bridging Horizontal to Vertical Radiative Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Radiative cooling materials are mature but only work facing the sky, confining them to rooftops. Instead of developing new ones, this system bridges existing horizontal coolers to vertical windows using blades outside the glass. On an occupied urban building, windows stay up to 1.4°C below air temperature while preserving daylight, outward views, and ...

The Application of Non-Axisymmetric Endwall Contouring in a 1½ Stage, Rotating Turbine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Today gas turbines are a crucial part of the global power generation and aviation industries. Small improvements to the efficiencies of individual components within the gas flow path can, over time, lead to dramatic cost savings for the operator and at ...

Atomistic Kinetics of Dislocation‐Mediated Grain Growth in Monolayer MoS2

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Atomic‐resolution in‐situ heating microscopy directly visualizes dislocation‐mediated grain boundary migration and grain growth in monolayer MoS2. Mobile grain boundaries migrate through collective motion of Mo 5|7 dislocations, whereas S 5|7 defects remain largely immobile.

Identification of Flow Physics in a Counter Rotating Turbine

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2020
Flow in a Counter Rotating Turbine (CRT) stage is composite and three dimensional due to the blade geometry of nozzle, rotor 1 and rotor 2 that are twisted along the span, spacing between them, tip clearance provided on rotors and also because of ...

Microfluidic Gratings for X‐Ray Phase Contrast Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work establishes a new protocol for the fabrication of X‐ray gratings that exploits the advantages of microfluidics and enables a more inexpensive, faster, and scalable production process. These X‐ray devices are fundamental for implementing X‐ray phase contrast imaging (XPCI) in laboratory and clinical settings, yet their costly and complex ...

Synergistic Effects in Multistate Black Electro‐Thermochromic Smart Windows for Energy‐Efficient Modulation of Solar Heating

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hybrid electro‐thermochromic smart windows are developed for dynamic climate control by integrating a redox‐matched black electrochromic gel with a paraffin‐based thermochromic film. This synergistic combination enables multimodal solar modulation, where photothermal heating from the electrochromic layer triggers thermochromic activation at lower ...
