Carbon Interlayer with Uniformly Anchored ZnO Nanoparticles: Surface‐Energy‐Driven Coble Creep for Practical Anode‐Free Solid‐State Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We used a zinc oxide–carbon composite interlayer (ZnO@C) via the electron‐beam (e‐beam) irradiation method to fabricate a cost‐effective, high‐energy‐density, anode‐free solid‐state battery. Chemical anchoring between the ZnO and carbon enabled uniform nanoscale morphology, mitigating the high surface energy of the ZnO NPs.

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 ...

Integral Bridge Abutment-to-Approach Slab Connection Final Report;TR-539/TR-530, June 2008

open access: yes, 2008
The Iowa Department of Transportation has long recognized that approach slab pavements of integral abutment bridges are prone to settlement and cracking, which manifests as the “bump at the end of the bridge”.

CO2‐to‐CO Electrolysis in Pure Water at Ampere‐Level Current Density and 1000 h Stability via a Rapid‐Transport Fixed‐Charge Interface

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CO2 reduction in pure water is enabled by a rapid‐transport fixed‐charge interface that couples nanochannels with a cationic microenvironment. This design eliminates the mass transport plateau, stabilizes key reaction intermediates, and suppresses the hydrogen evolution reaction, ultimately achieving ampere‐level current densities and stable operation ...

Orthogonal Design of Competing Deprotonation Process in Cation‐Mediated Ni(OH)2 for Achieving Industrial Level Biomass Electrooxidation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A Cu‐mediated Ni(OH)2 catalyst with orthogonal activity by precise valence engineering simultaneously accelerates rate‐determining aldehyde C─H activation in HMF oxidation and impedes O─H deprotonation in competing OER. This multi‐functional synergistic catalysis enables FDCA production at industrial‐level current densities without sacrificing FEFDCA ...

Shear‐Induced Emergence of Aromatic Superlow‐Friction Interfaces in Amorphous Carbon: Triggering Chemical Impurities and Atomic‐Scale Mechanisms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐throughput quantum‐mechanical simulations reveal that amorphous carbon undergoes shear‐driven structural transformation into aromatic, graphene‐like interfaces. This mechanochemical process is governed by dopant chemistry: dopants with valency less than four promote the emergence of superlow‐friction amorphous graphene, whereas tetra‐valent ...

Unraveling the Power of Disorder: A Bioinspired Cuttlebone Structure With Superior Strength, Energy Absorption and Isotropy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cuttlebone‐inspired architected metamaterials introduce controlled structural disorder to simultaneously enhance strength, energy absorption, and compressive stability. Tunable disorder suppresses shear anisotropy, outperforms periodic lattices, and establishes discrete randomness as a robust route to high‐performance lightweight mechanical ...

Punching Shear of Flat Slabs

open access: yes, 2019
The use of flat slabs in constructions due to its many functional and economic advantages is wide-spread. Behavior of flat slabs in shear and flexure is a fairly complex problem.
