This study investigated long-term interannual changes in summer circulation and hydrology in the East China Sea (ECS) by performing 35-year high-resolution ocean model simulation from 1981 to 2015. The sea surface temperature (SST) warming trend was considerably weaker in summer than in winter. To the east of the Yangtze Estuary, the interannual va...
Ionic liquids (ILs) are seen as a more sustainable alternative to volatile organic solvents that are accelerating innovations in many industries such as energy storage, separations, and bioprocessing. The ability to effectively deconstruct lignocellulosic biomass is a significant hurdle in the biorefining/bioprocessing industry and presents limitat...
The development of highly specific biomimetic recognition material is a challenge for rapid detection of harmful residues in foodstuff. In this study, a paper-based boronate affinity metal-organic framework/molecularly imprinted polymer microfluidic chip (FZS-BA@MIP) was constructed based on the in situ construction strategy, which was also designe...
In Stokes flow, Purcell's scallop theorem forbids objects with time-reversible (reciprocal) swimming strokes from moving. In the presence of inertia, this restriction is eased and reciprocally deforming bodies can swim. A number of recent works have investigated dimer models that swim reciprocally at intermediate Reynolds numbers Re . 1.1000. These...
Laryngeal mucus hydrates and lubricates the deformable tissue of the vocal folds and acts as a boundary layer with the airflow from the lungs. However, the effects of the mucus' viscoelasticity on phonation remain widely unknown and mucus has not yet been established in experimental procedures of voice research. In this study, four synthetic mucus ...
The mechanism responsible for the damping of the large-scale, azimuthally directed jets observed at Jupiter's surface is not well known, but electromagnetic forces are suspected to play a role as the planet's electrical conductivity increases radially with depth. To isolate the jet damping process, we carry out a suite of direct numerical simulatio...
