Understanding how to structure a porous electrode to facilitate fluid, mass, and charge transport is key to enhance the performance of electrochemical devices such as fuel cells, electrolyzers, and redox flow batteries (RFBs). Using a…

With the rapid surge in the number of on-road Electric Vehicles (EVs), the amount of spent lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries is also expected to explosively grow. The spent battery packs contain valuable metal and materials that should be…

Electrosorption is a promising technique for brackish water deionization and waste water remediation. Faradaic materials with redox activity have recently been shown to enhance both the adsorption capacity and the selectivity of…

As modern analogue/mixed-signal design increasingly relies on optimization-in-the-loop flows, such as AI and LLM-based sizing agents that repeatedly invoke SPICE-efficient, accurate high-performance simulators have become an indispensable…

Materials with continuous dissipation can exhibit responses and functionalities that are not possible in thermodynamic equilibrium. While this concept is well-known, a major challenge has been the implementation: how to rationally design…

Carbon fiber composite can be a potential candidate for replacing metal-based battery enclosures of current electric vehicles (E.V.s) owing to its better strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. However, the strength of carbon…

Thermoelectricity is the direct conversion of temperature gradient to electric voltage, and vice-versa. There are several potential applications of thermoelectricity, ranging from clean noiseless cooling, to waste-power harvesting in…

Electronic phase behavior in correlated-electron systems is a fundamental problem of condensed matter physics. We argue here that the change in the phase behavior near the surface and interface, i.e., {\em electronic reconstruction}, is the…

The need to reduce the environmental impact of inorganic electronic systems is pressing. Although the field of organic electronics provides a potential solution to this issue, research and optimization is still majorly carried out on glass…

Electrowetting is a commonly used tool to manipulate sessile drops on hydrophobic surfaces. By applying an external voltage over a liquid and a dielectric-coated surface, one achieves a reduction of the macroscopic contact angles for…

Controlled atomic scale fabrication of functional devices is one of the holy grails of nanotechnology. The most promising class of techniques that enable deterministic nanodevice fabrication are based on scanning probe patterning or surface…

We present an analytical scheme for the design of realistic metagratings for wide-angle engineered reflection. These recently proposed planar structures can reflect an incident plane wave into a prescribed (generally non-specular) angle…

Electron tunneling between superconductors and normal metals has been used for an efficient refrigeration of electrons in the latter. Such cooling is a non-linear effect and usually requires a large voltage. Here we study the electron…

We present a high-order method for flow simulation on unstructured curved nonconforming sliding meshes. This method utilizes dynamic transfinite mortar elements to exchange flow information between the two sides of a sliding interface. The…

We present a finite element discretisation to model the interaction between a poroelastic structure and an elastic medium. The consolidation problem considers fully coupled deformations across an interface, ensuring continuity of…

Due to critical environmental and technological issues, there is a pressing need to switch from current refrigeration methods based on compression of gases to novel solid-state cooling technologies. Solid-state cooling is based on the…
