Transient Numerical Simulation of CO2 Conversion to Useful Products in a Flow Electrolyzer
Abstract The transient two-dimensional continuum numerical model was developed for the cathodic section of a flow electrolyzer with a catholyte flow channel to investigate the unsteady characteristics of the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction. The Tafel model kinetic paramete...

Data-Driven Reduced-Complexity Modeling of Fluid Flows: A Community Challenge
We introduce a community challenge designed to facilitate direct comparisons between data-driven methods for compression, forecasting, and sensing of complex aerospace flows. The challenge is organized into three tracks that target these complementary capabilities: compression (c...

The presence of sidewalls in turbulent duct flows leads to the emergence of secondary flow structures in the form of counter-rotating streamwise vortices near the corners (Prandtl’s secondary flow of the second kind). This work develops reduced-order Galerkin projection models th...

Microgrid rolling energy management often follows a decoupled forecast-then-optimize workflow, where forecasts are trained separately from downstream rolling model predictive control (MPC) scheduling. However, lower statistical forecasting errors do not necessarily reduce operati...

Two claims dominate popular discussion of US food safety: (1) Food recalls are rising year over year, and (2) undeclared allergens have become the leading cause. In this study, we aimed to (1) test both claims against the openFDA Food Enforcement bulk export for fiscal years (FY)...

This study explores the use of polarized second-harmonic generation (pSHG) to investigate myosin conformation in the relaxed state, differentiating between the actin-available, disordered (ON) state and the energy-conserving, ordered (OFF) state. By shifting the ON/OFF equilibriu...

Buried Interfaces as Functional Architectures in Rechargeable Batteries: A FIB-Enabled Perspective
Buried interfaces and interphases often govern performance loss in rechargeable batteries, although their functions are frequently inferred from spatially averaged composition, surface-sensitive measurements, or cell-level electrochemical response. In this Perspective, an interfa...

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor nanoplatelets (NPLs) are promising building blocks for optoelectronic applications due to their strong 1D quantum confinement and large lateral dimensions. While the growth mechanisms of pristine CdSe NPLs have been extensively studied,...

ElectrocatalyticHydrogenation with NanoparticlesDerived from a Cobalt Metal–Organic Framework
Abstract Electrocatalytic hydrogenation (e -H) provides a sustainable route for converting unsaturated organic substrates under mild conditions using renewable electricity as the driving force. Here, we report an MOF-derived cobalt catalyst for the e -H of acetone and pyridine. A...
