Thermal‐Hydraulic Characterization Preliminary Analysis of Pool‐Type Natural Circulation With Liquid Lead

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Lead‐cooled fast reactors are an important potential reactor type in the fourth‐generation nuclear energy system. And the clarity of the thermal‐hydraulic characteristics of pool‐type natural circulation is crucial for the design of lead‐based fast reactors.

Thermal-hydraulics validation of CFD code for light water nuclear reactors against benchmark experimental results

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2021
The cooling of a nuclear reactor depends on a suitable fluid flow pattern among its fuel elements aiming the removal of heat produced in the fuel. In case of light water reactors, an excess of heat drives the fluid to change its phase from liquid to ...

Design of a Hilbert Curve Fractal MIMO Slot Antenna With Enhanced Bandwidth and Stable Radiation Patterns for Wi‐Fi 7 and Wi‐Fi 8 Applications Using Genetic Algorithm

open access: yesInternational Journal of Antennas and Propagation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Next‐generation Wi‐Fi 7 (IEEE 802.11be) and Wi‐Fi 8 (IEEE 802.11bn) demand compact multielement antennas offering wide bandwidth, high isolation, and stable radiation within limited device space. Conventional MIMO designs often face strong coupling, narrow bandwidth, or low efficiency, restricting high‐throughput multilink performance.

Order Effects in Second Language Learning

open access: yesLanguage Learning, Volume 75, Issue 3, Page 623-665, September 2025.
Abstract We explore how general principles of learning apply to and combine with usage‐based approaches to language learning and teaching, with a focus on the effects of order of exposure to new information in second language (L2) instruction. Although the effects of input spacing and timing on memory and learning have been previously explored (see ...

A Split-Reduced Successive Cancellation List Decoder for Polar Codes

open access: yes, 2015
This paper focuses on low complexity successive cancellation list (SCL) decoding of polar codes. In particular, using the fact that splitting may be unnecessary when the reliability of decoding the unfrozen bit is sufficiently high, a novel splitting ...

Dynamic Microfluidic Synthesis of Zinc Oxide Nanowires: Impact of Channel Architecture on Growth Homogeneity and Uniformity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 9, May 5, 2025.
In situ synthesis of nanomaterials within microfluidic reactors in dynamic mode boosts the growth rate. Notably, microfluidic reactors with optimized tree‐branched microchannel networks enable outstanding homogeneity of 99% and excellent nanowires uniformity.

Precoding by Pairing Subchannels to Increase MIMO Capacity with Discrete Input Alphabets

open access: yes, 2010
We consider Gaussian multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels with discrete input alphabets. We propose a non-diagonal precoder based on the X-Codes in \cite{Xcodes_paper} to increase the mutual information.
