Thermo-Electric Powered High Energy-Density Hybrid Supercapattery for Driving Overall Water Splitting: A Novel Trifunctional Builder for Self-Powered Hydrogen Production. [PDF]
A novel, cost‐effective, and trifunctional self‐powered aqueous electrochemical energy device (SAEED) is successfully constructed by integrating asymmetric supercapattery (ASD) and water‐electrolyzer (WE) devices with a thermoelectric generator (TEG) utilizing the direct anchoring of Cu3Mo2O9 (CMD) nanostructures on Ni‐foam as an electrode prepared by ...

Shakedown modeling of unsaturated expansive soils subjected to wetting and drying cycles
It is important to model the behavior of unsaturated expansive soils subjected to wetting and drying cycles because they alter significantly their hydro-mechanical behavior and therefore cause a huge differential settlement on shallow foundations of the ...

Shakedown analysis of red mudstone fill material with different water contents
Understanding the shakedown behavior of fill material is paramount to estimate the deformation stability of railway subgrade. Especially for red mudstone fill material (RMF), the noticeable overestimation of bearing capacity would be encountered if the ...

Fatigue Crack Modeling of Railheads Using a Nonlinear Cohesive Zone Model
ABSTRACT Subsurface fatigue crack growth within railheads can be deleterious leading to catastrophic failures in rails. This study aims to model the fatigue crack growth originating at the subsurface level within railheads. Towards that end, a finite element modeling approach is utilized wherein complex crack growth is explicitly modeled using a ...

Tracking Active Site Formation during Oxidative Activation of Copper-Exchanged Zeolites for Methane-to-Methanol Conversion. [PDF]
The oxidative generation of Cu(II) active sites in Cu‐exchanged zeolites for the CH4‐to‐CH3OH conversion has been studied. Complementary in situ/operando spectroscopic techniques highlight that the formation rate and the stability of different Cu(II) species are governed by their structure and the zeolite topology.

Self‐Expanding Cardiovascular Stents: Potentials and Challenges of Shape Memory Biomaterials
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases affect a large portion of the global population and remain leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Endovascular stenting, a minimally invasive procedure, enables the insertion and deployment of stents to restore arterial patency without open surgery.

Deformation behavior of K0-consolidated soft clay under traffic load-induced stress paths
Under traffic loads, the magnitudes and directions of the principal stresses applied in the soil elements of soft subgrade change simultaneously. Namely, as the shear stress changes in amplitudes, the principal stress axes continuously rotate.
