Stem hydraulic capacitance decreases with drought stress : implications for modelling tree hydraulics in the Mediterranean oak Quercus ilex [PDF]
, 2017 Hydraulic modelling is a primary tool to predict plant performance in future drier scenarios. However, as most tree models are validated under non-stress conditions they may fail when water becomes limiting.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.An Aloe‐pinspired droplet electricity generator (A‐DEG) overcomes the limited energy collection zone of conventional DEGs by guiding impact droplets through a channeling midrib and artificial cuticle. The channeling midrib induces uni‐directional droplet spreading, while the artificial cuticle on the midrib further reinforces this behavior through its ...

Experimental and Numerical Study of Rod Bundle Sub-channel Flow Field under Blockage
Yuanzineng kexue jishu, 2023 Experiment study of a 5×5 rod bundle was conducted to investigate the effect of blockage on sub-channel flow field and mass flow rate. A 3×3 block was set in a 5×5 rod bundle with the largest blocking percent of about 72% in the center sub-channel.
