Mimicking Life: Autonomous Oscillating Artificial Cilia Driven by Chemical Power

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The synthesis and motion analysis of chemically actuated, individually autonomous artificial cilia are presented. Driven by an internal chemical reaction, the self‐driven individual cilia require no external stimuli. They undergo periodic oscillatory motion with a 3D beat pattern and exhibit chemotactic shifts, reminiscent of biological systems.

Numerical Analysis of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Performance With a Lung Serpentine Flow Field

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) are regarded as the best clean energy conversion technology because of their smaller number of emissions and higher efficiency. This numerical investigation used two different flow channel designs—the serpentine flow field (SFF) and the lung serpentine flow field (LSFF)—with active areas of 5 by 5 cm.
