Solute-strengthening in metal alloys with short-range order

William Curtin, Shankha Nag

Recent surging interest in strengthening of High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) with possible chemical ordering motivates the development of new theory. Here, an existing theory for random alloys that accounts for solute-dislocation and solute–solute interactions i ...

The presence of metal salts has become one of the major limitations for measuring metallic nanoparticles (NPs) in single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (spICP-MS). Their presence generates a background signal in spICP-MS that can be ...

The Three-Phase Contact Potential Difference Modulates the Water Surface Charge

Aleksandra Radenovic, Andrei Kiselev, Vasily Artemov, Roman Doronin

The surface charge of an open water surface is crucialfor solvationphenomena and interfacial processes in aqueous systems. However, themagnitude of the charge is controversial, and the physical mechanismof charging remains incompletely understood. Here we ...

Wetting Dynamics Beneath an Impacting Droplet

Ramin Kaviani

Many natural and industrial processes involve fluid flow at a three phase interface between liquid, solid and gas. When the liquid is forced to move rapidly over the solid surface, the physical mechanisms governing contact line motions are multi-phase and ...

Pathways to enhance electrochemical CO2 reduction identified through direct pore-level modeling

Sophia Haussener, Etienne Boutin, Evan Fair Johnson, Shuo Liu

Electrochemical conversion of CO2 to fuels and valuable products is one pathway to reduce CO2 emissions. Electrolyzers using gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) show much higher current densities than aqueous phase electrolyzers, yet models for multi-physical ...

Modeling of rough contact interfaces with trapped compressive liquid pockets

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Parissasadat Alavi, Julie Richard, Loris Rocchi

Boundary and mixed lubrication are usually used to reduce friction in sheet metal form- ing. In the boundary lubrication regime load is mainly carried by contacting asperities. Therefore, the tribological problem can be solved in the dry case using a geome ...

Extension of GeN-Foam to modeling of boiling water and validation against the OECD/NRC PSBT benchmark

Carlo Fiorina, Stefan Radman, Ran Zhang, Hao Qin

The OpenFOAM-based GeN-Foam solver has recently been extended to allow simulating water boiling based on a porous-medium approach. This paper describes such extension and preliminarily validates it based on the OECD/NRC PSBT benchmark. Three benchmark exer ...

Interactions of Cavitation Bubbles with Deformable Interfaces

Armand Baptiste Sieber

Cavitation is a topic that has long been of interest due to the large and growing range of applications associated with it. This is mainly because the collapse of cavitation bubbles releases a considerable amount of energy into the surrounding environment. ...

Snowfall is an essential component of the hydrological cycle, as it is involved in most precipitation on Earth, either directly as snow falling to the ground or indirectly as rain melted from snow. At the same time, the ice phase of clouds and precipitatio ...
