Designing Thermal Modulators for Portable GC x GC Systems.
(2015)
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have the advantage of scale and can be manufactured in bulk. One of the active areas of MEMS research is the development of micro-scale comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography ...
Continuum-Scale Modeling of Rechargeable Batteries
(2020)
During the operation of a rechargeable battery, the electrochemical reactions occur at the interface between the electrolyte and the active material in the electrode. The electrochemical performance of such batteries is ...
All-Electron Ground-State and Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory: Fast Algorithms and Better Approximations
(2019)
Density functional theory (DFT), in its ground-state as well as time-dependent variant, have enjoyed incredible success in predicting a range of physical, chemical and materials properties. Although a formally exact theory, ...
An Experimental Investigation of Premixed Combustion in Extreme Turbulence
(2017)
This work has explored various aspects of high Reynolds number combustion
that have received much previous speculation. A new high-Reynolds number
premixed Bunsen burner, called Hi-Pilot, was designed to produce ...
Probing Heat Transport and Energy Conversion at the Atomic and Single Molecule Scale
(2018)
The study of heat transport and energy conversion constitutes an important subject in modern physics and engineering research. The widely-applied Fourier’s and Planck’s laws have proven to be very useful to describe heat ...
Theoretical and Experimental Study of Fuel Injector Tip Wetting as a Source of Particulate Emissions in Gasoline Direct-Injection Engines
(2019)
Gasoline fuel film deposited on the tip of a fuel injector, i.e. injector tip wetting, has been identified as a significant source of particulate emissions at some operating conditions of gasoline direct-injection engines. ...
