It is well known that some liquids can demonstrate anomalous behavior. Interestingly, this be- havior can be qualitatively reproduced with simple core-softened isotropic pair-potential systems. Although anomalous properties of liquids…

A new dynamic line, the Frenkel line, has recently been proposed to separate the supercritical state into rigid-liquid and non-rigid gas-like uid. The location of Frenkel line on the phase diagram is unknown for real uids. Here, we map the…

The objective of this work is to investigate the unexplored laminar-to-turbulent transition of a heated flat-plate boundary layer with a fluid at supercritical pressure. Two temperature ranges are considered: a subcritical case, where the…

At high pressure, the typical behavior of elements dictated by the periodic table - including oxidation numbers, stoichiometries in compounds, and reactivity, to name but a few - is altered dramatically. As pressure is applied, the…

Driven by fundamental thermodynamic efficiency considerations, an emerging trend in the energy and propulsion systems is that the working fluid operates at a pressure above the critical pressure. Energy transport is thus accompanied by…

We have studied in detail the transition from gas-like to rigid liquid-like behaviour in supercritical $N_2$ at 300 K (2.4 $T_C$). Our study combines neutron diffraction and Raman spectroscopy with empirical potential structure refinement…

A fluid particle changes its dynamics from diffusive to oscillatory as the system density increases up to the melting density. Hence, the notion of the Frenkel line was introduced to demarcate the fluid region into rigid and nonrigid liquid…
