On the application of components manufactured with stereolithographic 3D printing in high vacuum systems
Axle-box accelerometers fitted to in-service vehicles are a cost-effective way of monitoring rail roughness that can supplant the use of manual trolleys and dedicated measurement trains. Unlike the latter, accelerometers measure the vibration caused by roughness rather than the roughness itself, and so require processing to derive the levels of rou...
Digital Twin (DT) technology, as the evolution of Building Information Modeling (BIM), has emerged to address global concerns regarding the environmental impacts of the construction industry and to meet sustainability indicators. Despite numerous studies targeting the integration of DT and sustainability, there is a noticeable gap in creating a com...
While recent advances have demonstrated highly efficient and stable perovskite light-emitting diodes (LEDs), blue perovskite LEDs still show low performance compared to green, red, near IR counterparts. Despite perovskites being well-known for their defect tolerance, blue perovskites are highly vulnerable to defects, which introduce deep trap state...
Decarbonizing heavy-duty vehicles is becoming increasingly important, yet multiple renewable-based decarbonization pathways have not been compared systematically. To fill this gap, this study develops a techno-economic and environmental model that integrates the fuel cycle and vehicle cycle to assess these pathways for China. The model includes two...
Our recent study of 20 nanoporous activated carbons showed that a more disordered local carbon structure leads to enhanced capacitive performance in electrochemical double layer capacitors. Specifically, NMR spectroscopy measurements and simulations of electrolyte-soaked carbons evidenced that nanoporous carbons with smaller graphene-like domains h...
