Experimental measurements have reported ultra-fast and radius-dependent water transport in carbon nanotubes which are absent in boron nitride nanotubes. Despite considerable effort, the origin of this contrasting (and fascinating) behaviour…
Fluids confined to quasi-one-dimensional channels exhibit a dynamic crossover from single file diffusion to normal diffusion as the channel becomes wide enough for particles to hop past each other. In the crossover regime, where hopping…
The presence of hydrogen traps within a metallic alloy influences the rate of hydrogen diffusion. The electro-permeation (EP) test can be used to assess this: the permeation of hydrogen through a thin metallic sheet is measured by suitable…
Diamond, the hardest natural crystal, has attracted significant attention for its plasticity, which is reported to be determined by its stacking faults. Studies mainly focused on one-dimensional linear pathways in stacking transitions,…
Safe and high-density storage of hydrogen, for a clean-fuel economy, can be realized by hydride-forming materials, but these materials should be able to store hydrogen at room temperature. Some high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have recently been…
The diffusion of molecules in complex intracellular environments can be strongly influenced by spatial heterogeneity and stochasticity. A key challenge when modelling such processes using stochastic random walk frameworks is that negative…
Diffusive transport has implications for the long-term status of underground storage of hydrogen (H$_2$) fuel and carbon dioxide (CO$_2$), technologies which are being pursued to mitigate climate change and advance the energy transition.…
Hydrogen grain boundary (GB) trapping is widely accepted as the main cause for hydrogen induced intergranular failure. Several studies were conducted to unveil the role of GBs on hydrogen transport; however, a clear understanding is yet to…
The penetration of atomic hydrogen through defect-free graphene was generally predicted to have a barrier of at least several eV, which is much higher than the 1 eV barrier measured for hydrogen-gas permeation through pristine graphene…
In recent years, metal hydride research has become one of the driving forces of the high-pressure community, as it is believed to hold the key to superconductivity close to ambient temperature. While numerous novel metal hydride compounds…
We use high signal-to-noise ratio, high-resolution VLT-UVES data of Q J0643-5041 amounting to a total of more than 23 hours exposure time and fit the neutral hydrogen, metals and H2 absorption features with multiple-component Voigt…
Hydrogen tunneling is an important process that impacts reaction rates and molecular spectra. Describing and understanding this process requires a quantum mechanical treatment of the transferring hydrogen. The nuclear-electronic orbital…
This study uses the density functional theory (DFT) approach with GGA-PBE to assess the effect of substituting alkali metals in Rb$_{2}$CaH and Cs-doped Rb$_{2}$CaH$_{4}$ on their hydrogen storage potential. To address the challenges…
CeO$_2$ (ceria) is an attractive material for heterogeneous catalysis applications involving hydrogen due to its favorable redox activity combined with its relative impermeability to hydrogen ions and molecules. However, to date, many bulk…
We report hybrid lattice Boltzmann (HLB) simulations of the hydrodynamics of an active nematic liquid crystal sandwiched between confining walls with various anchoring conditions. We confirm the existence of a transition between a passive…
In recent decades, significant attention has been dedicated to analytical and observational studies of the atomic hydrogen (HI) to molecular hydrogen (H2) transition in the interstellar medium. We focussed on the Draco diffuse cloud to gain…
Molecular dynamics simulations are a powerful tool to study diffusion processes in battery electrolyte and electrode materials. From a single molecular dynamics simulation many properties relevant to diffusion can be obtained, including the…
Hydrogen-vacancy interactions play an important role in governing hydrogen transport and embrittlement in body-centered cubic (BCC) metals. In this study, a multiscale approach combining density functional theory (DFT) and kinetic Monte…
Modeling hydrogen embrittlement (HE) is a long-standing engineering challenge, which has experienced significant developments in recent years. Yet, there is a gap in modeling the effect of the kinetics of hydrogen segregation at…
Despite high interest in compact and safe storage of hydrogen in the solid-state hydride form, the design of alloys that can reversibly and quickly store hydrogen at room temperature under pressures close to atmospheric pressure is a…
