A Sustainable Biotechnology Approach for Mineral Separation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Silver‑binding peptides are first identified through phage‐display screening, and then engineered into multifunctional and responsive peptides or proteins. These tailored biomolecules can selectively capture and aggregate silver particles or ions from complex mixtures, enabling rapid and efficient silver separation and recovery.

Seismic performance analysis of a wind turbine tower subjected to earthquake and ice actions.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Sea ice is one of the main loads acting on a wind turbine tower in areas prone to icing, and this threatens safe working life of the wind turbine tower. In our study, a simplified calculated model of ice, wind turbine tower, and water dynamic interaction

Active Biopaste for Coral Reef Restoration
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Preserving coral reefs is essential. A conductive, hardening paste for coral attachment and mineral accretion technology is developed, using a bio‐based acrylate soybean oil matrix and graphene nanoplatelets. Corals are attached with and onto the conductive paste, electricity is applied, water electrolysis is induced, and calcium is deposited at the ...

Wind Turbine Aerodynamics [PDF]
, 2019 Wind turbine aerodynamics is one of the central subjects of wind turbine technology. To reduce the levelized cost of energy (LCOE), the size of a single wind turbine has been increased to 12 MW at present, with further increases expected in the near future. Big wind turbines and their associated wind farms have many advantages but also challenges.

Foundations for offshore wind turbines
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2003 An important engineering challenge of today, and a vital one for the future, is to develop and harvest alternative sources of energy. This is a firm priority in the UK, with the government setting a target of 10% of electricity from renewable sources by 2010.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Water impacting, freezing, melting, and being mechanically removed from the designed dielectric surfaces generates a triboeletric signal that can be used to detect various icing and de‐icing scenarios. The charge transferred directly scales with the interfacial fracture mechanism, further validating triboelectricity as an excellent ice‐detection ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Low‐interfacial toughness PDMS/SiO2 coatings are applied to aluminum substrates and tested under natural high‐altitude conditions. The coatings demonstrate strong anti‐icing, icephobic, and large‐scale deicing performance. Field results highlight delayed freezing, reduced ice adhesion, and stable durability, offering practical insights into the use of ...
