Skin, the largest organ in the body, comprises three major layers: the epidermis, dermis, and adipose tissue. Its complex microstructure results in non-linear stress-strain responses when subjected to large deformations, necessitating non-linear constitutive relations like the Mooney ... Read More
Recent studies for smart materials have found promising results in terms of vibration energy harvesting using piezoelectric effect. Previous research has demonstrated a potential for broadband piezoelectric energy harvesting solutions for small scale electronic devices using various ... Read More
This research introduces an electro-optic modulator based on a Metal-Semiconductor (M-S) junction, aimed at advancing functional plasmonic circuits through active control of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at the interfaces of M-S devices. To evaluate the device's performance, we ... Read More
The integrity and safety of reinforced concrete structures are of paramount importance in civil engineering. Detection of flaws in prestressed tendons, especially those buried at critical depths greater than 20 cm, presents a significant challenge. Magnetic flux leakage (MFL) is a non ... Read More
Spinal cord injury triggers an initial inflammatory response followed by scar tissue formation, hindering the repair of severed neural tracts and sensorimotor function.1 Injectable hydrogels consisting of a water-swollen polymer network can be engineered to mimic the environment of ... Read More
The discharge of an alkaline Zn anode involves the conversion of Zn metal to solid ZnO through the zincate ion. With the heterogeneous dissolution of Zn and mobility of zincate in the electrolyte, complex radial distributions of Zn and ZnO have been observed to occur in the anodes of ... Read More
The High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), operating at 85 MW, is the highest flux reactor-based source of neutrons for research in the United States and provides one of the highest steady-state neutron fluxes worldwide. Research and development efforts ... Read More
In diatomic molecules, the anti-bonding eigenstate is the higher energy state as the chemical bond is weakened between the two atoms due to the destructive interference of electronic wavefunctions. It is counterintuitive for the anti-bonding state to have lower energy given the bonding ... Read More
The scale up of electrical energy storage is one of the great technological challenges of our time as the world must quickly transform its energy infrastructure away from fossil fuels. Companies striving to commercialize new battery technologies must solve numerous electrochemical, ... Read More
Fast mixing of reagents in microfluidic devices is important for DNA sequencing, mRNA vaccine production in small-batch pharmaceutical processes, and point-of-care diagnostics. A key challenge in microfluidics is mixing reagents rapidly in a minimal amount of space. One way to do this is ... Read More
