Constant-Current, Constant-Voltage Operation of a Dual-Bridge Resonant Converter: Modulation, Design and Experimental Results

Applied Sciences, 2021
To meet the requirements of charging the mainstream rechargeable batteries, in this work, a dual-bridge resonant converter (DBRC) is operated as a battery charger. Thanks to the features of this topology, the required high efficiency can be achieved with

Diffusiophoresis of a Charged Soft Sphere in a Charged Spherical Cavity

Colloids and Interfaces
The quasi-steady diffusiophoresis of a soft particle composed of an uncharged hard sphere core and a uniformly charged porous surface layer in a concentric charged spherical cavity full of a symmetric electrolyte solution with a concentration gradient is analyzed.

Two-sided online markets for electric vehicle charging [PDF]

, 2013
With the growing popularity of electric vehicles (EVs), the number of public charging stations is increasing rapidly, allowing drivers to charge their cars while parked away from home or en-route to their destination. However, as a full charge can take a

Rationally engineered polymeric interfaces for selective and dynamic recognition of vesicular agents

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explores how molecularly imprinted polymers can be engineered to recognize complex nanoscale vesicles, including extracellular vesicles and membrane‐enveloped viruses. By tailoring polymer cavities to vesicle surface chemistry and structure, these synthetic receptors support selective detection, separation, and integration with optical ...

A Numerical–Experimental Approach for Multi‐Matrix Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Characterization Using Finite Element Model Updating

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.

Entropy‐Driven Design of Low‐Melting‐Point Alloys via Compositionally Complex Strategy

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional low‐melting‐point alloys (LMPAs) are limited by a narrow compositional space and inherent property trade‐offs. This review presents an entropy‐driven design strategy that overcomes these limitations, ushering in a new class of low‐melting‐point compositionally complex alloys (LMCCAs).

Cryogenic Deformation Behavior of TiAl and Insights Into Embrittlement After High‐Temperature Exposure Combined With Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy of Near Surface Chemistry

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Near‐surface deuterium enrichment profiles for different microstructural types of TiAl after exposure at 700 °C in a heavy water‐containing environment. The deuterium levels are significantly higher than expected from natural occurrence, indicating that the heavy water dissociated during the exposure treatment and entered the specimens.

3D‐Printed Titanium Gyroid Scaffold Structure Integrated With Tough Hybrid Materials for Cartilage Replacement

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes a potential device design for joint cartilage replacement. Silica‐polytetrahydrofuran (SiO2‐PolyTHF) hybrids with customizable mechanical properties were developed to mimic the characteristics of a natural meniscus. These were synthesized through a two‐pot sol–gel hybrid process.
