Harnessing Phase Separation for the Development of High‐Performance Hydrogels
ABSTRACT Hydrogels are indispensable for the development of next‐generation bioelectronics, soft robotics, and biomedical devices, where their mechanical properties determine performance and reliability. Among strategies to enhance hydrogel mechanics, phase separation enables controlled heterogeneity resulting in gel networks that are reinforced by ...

Investigating the Scouring Rate in Plunge Pools Resulting from Impinging Jets With and Without Aeration [PDF]
draining the flood of enormous dams and transmitting the procedure to the downstream is one of the important issues regarding hydraulic structures. Plunge pools are the main structures to dissipate the high rate of energy.

Efficiency of cavity dissolution in rock salt by water submerged jets
To create cavities when dissolving rock salt, it is most expedient to supply the solvent through the nozzles of a perforated pipe in the form of submerged jets. This article examines the physical dissolution of a cavity with water from a stationary nozzle with a diameter of 0.004 m at two constant velocities at the nozzle cross-section.
