On The Strategies Towards Isothermal Gas Compression And Expansion

Alfred Rufer, Mahbod Heidari, Sylvain Lemofouet-Gatsi

Isothermal compression/expansion is regarded as the most promising process in many applications and many researchers and inventors have tried different methods to achieve this goal. The current article first studies the gradual roadmap from adiabatic towar ...

Critical Evaluation of Implicit Solvent Models for Predicting Aqueous Oxidation Potentials of Neutral Organic Compounds

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jennifer Guerard

Quantum chemical implicit solvent models are used widely to estimate aqueous redox potentials. We compared the accuracy of several popular implicit solvent models (SM8, SMD, C-PCM, IEF-PCM, and COSMO-RS) for the prediction of aqueous single electron oxidat ...

On the relevance of volume increase for the length changes of mortar bars in sulfate solutions

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Wolfgang Kunther

The ingress of sulfate ions into cementitious materials leads to the formation of ettringite, gypsum and other phases. The increase in solid volume through the formation of these phases is often assumed to be the only reason for expansion. In this paper we ...

Simulations of the Irradiation and Temperature Dependence of the Efficiency of Tandem Photoelectrochemical Water-splitting Systems

Sophia Haussener

The efficiency of an operating photoelectrochemical solar-fuels-generator system is determined by the system design, the properties and morphology of the system's components, and the operational conditions. We used a previously developed model comprising o ...

Effects of uniaxial stress on alkali-silica reaction induced expansion of concrete

Karen Scrivener, Cyrille Dunant

ASR affected concrete in real structures is usually subject to loads which affect the macroscopic expansion of the material. An experimental study was undertaken using sensors embedded in reactive and non-reactive samples loaded on modified creep frames. N ...

Conduction of Ultracold Fermions Through a Mesoscopic Channel

Jean-Philippe Brantut

In a mesoscopic conductor, electric resistance is detected even if the device is defect-free. We engineered and studied a cold-atom analog of a mesoscopic conductor. It consists of a narrow channel connecting two macroscopic reservoirs of fermions that can ...
