Fostering multidisciplinary research on interactions between chemistry, biology, and physics within the coupled cryosphere-atmosphere system

Julia Schmale, Jenny Thomas, Markus Frey

The cryosphere, which comprises a large portion of Earth's surface, is rapidly changing as a consequence of global climate change. Ice, snow, and frozen ground in the polar and alpine regions of the planet are known to directly impact atmospheric compositi ...

2019

Chronoamperometry was used to study the dynamics of Pt nanoparticle (NP) collision with an inert ultramicroelectrode via electrocatalytic amplification (ECA) towards hydrogen evolution reaction. First, ECA and dynamic light scattering (DLS) results reveal ...

Topological phonons and thermoelectricity in triple-point metals

Quansheng Wu

Recently published discoveries of acoustic- and optical-mode inversion in the phonon spectrum of certain metals became the first realistic example of noninteracting topological bosonic excitations in existing materials. However, the observable physical and ...

AMER PHYSICAL SOC2018

Spacecraft employ composite materials as Thermal Protection Systems (TPS) to survive entering a planetary atmosphere at hypersonic speeds. Under intense convective and radiative heating from the surrounding shock layer, these composites decompose and erode ...

Multiphase-Field Modeling of Micropore Formation in Metallic Alloys

Michel Rappaz, Alain Jacot, Hossein Meidani

A 3D phase-field (PhF) model has been developed to study the formation of micropores constrained to grow within a well-developed solid network. The model accounts for the equilibrium condition at triple (solid-liquid-pore) lines and the partitioning of dis ...

Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectral Measurements for Superorbital Earth Entry in X2 Expansion Tube

Umar Sheikh

Experiments were conducted using the X2 expansion tube at two conditions representative of flight velocities of 10.0 km/s and 12.2 km/s for a vehicle entry into Earth's atmosphere. Calibrated spectral measurements were made of radiating shock layers ac ...

Solid-liquid interfacial free energy out of equilibrium

Michele Ceriotti, Bingqing Cheng, Gareth Aneurin Tribello

The properties of the interface between solid and melt are key to solidification and melting, as the interfacial free energy introduces a kinetic barrier to phase transitions. This makes solidification happen below the melting temperature, in out-of-equili ...

Numerical Simulations of the Apollo 4 Re-entry Trajectory

Ermioni Papadopoulou

Sample return capsules, as the Apollo Command Module have been widely used to ad- vance the knowledge and planning of manned lunar and planetary return missions. Such reentry vehicles undergo extreme thermal conditions, caused by shock-heated air during th ...

Fluid-structure thermal coupling and ablation effects in atmospheric entry

Ojas Joshi

This thesis deals with the modelling of fundamental aspects of the mission engineering, the physics, and the constraints of atmospheric entry of space vehicles. The aim of this work is to formulate a coupled approach for the modelling and the simulation of ...
