Recent advances in boosting interfacial bubble dynamics with external fields

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
External physical fields, including acoustic, magnetic, thermal, mechanical, and optical stimuli, accelerate the entire bubble‐dynamics sequence of nucleation, growth, and detachment. Abstract The efficiency of industrial electrocatalytic reactions depends not only on generating gaseous products but also on their detachment from the catalyst surface ...

Thermal‐induced fracture evolution and acoustic signature of Beishan granite: Insights into tensile strength of barrier system for high‐level radioactive waste disposal

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The tensile strength of granite, a proposed host for nuclear waste, degrades severely above 400°C. We link this to specific microcracking patterns captured by acoustic emission, establishing a scientific basis for assessing repository safety under thermal load.

Integrating Remote Sensing and Machine Learning for Enhanced Surface Urban Heat Island Analysis and Its Impact on Building Energy Demand

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Satellite (MODIS) mapping links Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity to city‐scale energy demand—higher daytime cooling demand and altered nighttime heating demand—supporting targeted mitigation and planning. ABSTRACT This study examines the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect on building energy consumption in Tehran from 1998 to 2024, utilizing MODIS
