Reducing human reliance on high-electricity-consuming cooling technologies like air conditioning is crucial for reshaping the global energy paradigm. Through utilizing natural starch gelatinization, freezedrying and densification processes,…
We propose a nonlinear elasto-plastic model, for which a specific class of hyperbolic elasticity arises as a straight consequence of the yield criterion invariance on the plasticity level. We superimpose this nonlinear elastic (or…
Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly applied in the fields of mechanical engineering and materials science. As models that establish connections through the interface of language, LLMs can be applied for step-wise reasoning through…
Recent studies have applied variational calculus, conformal mapping, and point transformations to generalize the one-dimensional (1D) space-charge limited current density (SCLCD) and electron emission mechanisms to nonplanar geometries;…
We develop a multi-port-backscatter-modulation technique to determine, over the air (OTA), the scattering parameters of a linear, passive, time-invariant multi-port device under test (DUT). A set of "not-directly-accessible" (NDA) antennas…
Neutron-induced nuclear reaction data on beryllium playing a crucial role in nuclear application. However, discrepancies have been observed in two closely related series of beryllium-reflector fast-spectrum critical benchmark experiments,…
Spatial mapping of thermal properties is critical for unveiling the structure-property relation of materials, heterogeneous interfaces, and devices. These property images can also serve as datasets for training artificial intelligence…
Data collected using the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) and application of the Sand equation is a ubiquitous method for inferring the solid-state diffusivity in lithium-ion battery active materials. However, the…

In recent years, bound states in the continuum (BICs) have attracted extensive attentions in the sensing field due to their theoretically ultra-high resonance quality factors (Q-factors). Among them, Friedrich-Wintgen (F-W) BICs, which…
Red InGaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) exhibit lower internal quantum efficiencies (IQEs) than violet, blue, and green InGaN LEDs due to a reduction in radiative recombination rates relative to non-radiative recombination rates as the…
Excitonic/electronic coupling and cooperative interactions in self-assembled lead halide perovskite nanocrystals were reported to give rise to a collective low energy emission peak with accelerated dynamics. Here we report that similar…
