Can Tidal Current Energy Provide Base Load?

open access: yesEnergies, 2013
Tidal energy belongs to the class of intermittent but predictable renewable energy sources. In this paper, we consider a compact set of geographically diverse locations, which have been assessed to have significant tidal stream energy, and attempt to ...

Pacinian Corpuscle‐Inspired Strain Conversion Enables Ultrasensitive, Linear, and Broad‐Range Piezoelectric Sensing for Cardiovascular Health Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioinspired piezoelectric sensor mimicking Pacinian corpuscles is developed to enable ultrasensitive and linear pressure sensing. A multilayer grooved architecture converts normal pressure into in‐plane strain, delivering high sensitivity, wide linear range, and efficient energy harvesting, enabling high‐fidelity wrist pulse monitoring and ...

The Star Cluster Population in the Tidal Tails of NGC 6872

open access: yes, 2005
We present a photometric analysis of the rich star cluster population in the tidal tails of NGC 6872. We find star clusters with ages between 1 - 100 Myr distributed in the tidal tails, while the tails themselves have an age of less than 150 Myr. Most of

Transition Metal Compounds for Aqueous Ammonium‐Ion Batteries: Storage Mechanisms and Electrode Design

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Aqueous ammonium‐ion batteries leverage hydrogen‐bond‐mediated NH4+ storage in tunable transition metal compounds. Despite progress in Mn‐, V‐, Mo‐, and W‐based compounds, 2D LDHs, and MXenes, challenges like structural instability and slow kinetics persist. Future advances require robust host design, mechanistic understanding via operando studies, and

Tidal Current Energy Resource Distribution in Korea

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Korea is a very well-known country for having abundant tidal current energy resources. There are many attractive coastal areas for the tidal current power that have very strong currents due to the high tidal range and the acceleration through the narrow ...

Interplay of Backbone Conformation, Morphology and Thermoelectric Properties of Benzodifuranone‐Isatin Acceptor Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Modification of polymer backbone via halogenation and comonomer selection leads to conjugated backbones of different stereoelectronic properties, thin film morphologies, and electrical characteristics. The interplay of conformational isomerism, coplanarity, backbone curvature, backbone orientation, and ordering in thin films, electrical conductivity ...
