Formation of WNL Stars in the MW and LMC Based on the k − ω Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We adopt a set of second-order differential equations ( k − ω model) to handle core convective overshooting in massive stars, simulate the evolution of nitrogen sequence Wolf–Rayet (WNL) stars with different metallicities and initial masses, both ...

Organic Photoelectrochemical Cells Beyond Performance: Interface and Catalyst Engineering for Durability

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Organic photoelectrochemical cells based on π‐conjugated semiconductors offer a versatile platform for solar fuel generation. This review outlines operating principles, device architectures, and key metrics, and highlights advances in p‐ and n‐type photoelectrodes, interfacial engineering, and catalyst integration.

Angular Momentum Transport by Internal Gravity Waves across Age

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present 2D numerical simulations of convection and waves in a 7 M _⊙ star across stellar ages ranging from zero age to terminal age main sequence. We show that waves efficiently transport angular momentum across the stellar radiative envelope at young

Canonical Models of Geophysical and Astrophysical Flows: Turbulent Convection Experiments in Liquid Metals

open access: yesMetals, 2015
Planets and stars are often capable of generating their own magnetic fields. This occurs through dynamo processes occurring via turbulent convective stirring of their respective molten metal-rich cores and plasma-based convection zones.

Internal rotation of subdwarf B stars: limiting cases and asteroseismological consequences

open access: yes, 2004
Observations of the rotation rates of horizontal branch (HB) stars show puzzling systematics. In particular, cooler HB stars often show rapid rotation (with velocities in excess of 10 km/s), while hotter HB stars typically show much smaller rotation ...

Numerical simulations of stellar convective dynamos. II - Field propagation in the convection zone

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1985
We present numerical simulations of nonlinear, three-dimensional, time-dependent, giant-cell stellar convection and magnetic field generation. The velocity, magnetic field, and thermodynamic variables satisfy the anelastic magnetohydrodynamic equations for a stratified, rotating, spherical shell of ionized gas.

CFD modeling and sensitivity‐guided design of silicon filament CVD reactors

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Filament‐based chemical vapor deposition (CVD) for silicon (Si) coatings is often treated as an adaptation of planar deposition. But this overlooks fundamental shifts in transport phenomena and reaction kinetics. In filament CVD, the filament acts as a substrate, heat source, and flow disruptor simultaneously. In this work, we ask: What really

A Computational Approach for Biomimetic Design of Liver‐On‐A‐Chip

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A biomimetic liver‐on‐a‐chip with antiparallel perfusion was designed using COMSOL‐guided simulation to replicate hepatic acinus transport. Full‐scale modelling revealed diffusion‐dominated, length‐dependent nutrient gradients and low‐shear conditions.

The core helium flash revisited: II. Two and three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations

open access: yes, 2008
We study turbulent convection during the core helium flash close to its peak by comparing the results of two and three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations.

Meridional circulation from differential rotation in an adiabatically stratified solar/stellar convection zone [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical & Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics, 2014
Meridional circulation in stellar convection zones is not generally well observed, but may be critical for MHD dynamos. Coriolis forces from differential rotation (DR) play a large role in determining what the meridional circulation is. Here we consider whether a stellar DR that is constant on cylinders concentric with the rotation axis can drive a ...
