Chemo-mechanics of iron phosphate cathode in alkali metal-ion batteries
(2022-12)
Utilization of renewable energy sources requires the use of grid-scale stationary energy storage that requires low-cost, safe, and nontoxic systems. For these applications, “beyond” lithium-ion battery chemistries, such ...
Zwitterionic microscale hydrogels for protein delivery, stabilization, and immobilization
(2021-05)
Proteins are incredibly useful in medicine and industrial chemistry. Many of the most recent breakthroughs in cancer therapy are based on monoclonal antibody treatments. Yet, there are major difficulties that can act as ...
Unveiling advanced mechanisms of inhalable drug aerosol dynamics using computational fluid dynamics and discrete element method
(2021-07)
Capsule-based dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are widely used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by delivering active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) via inhalation into human respiratory systems. Previous ...
Characterization of large LPG pool fires and mucus clearance dynamics in upper airway using CFD method
(2020-12)
A large pool fire can be generated if there is a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) leakage during transportation or at storage sites, while the underlying mechanisms of how the hazardous matter can be generated from the LPG ...
Multiscale study of effects of brine type and ionic strength on the wettability alteration of naphthenic-acid-adsorbed calcite and calcite-coated glass surfaces
(2020-12)
Low-salinity/smart waterflooding is a technique, used in oil reservoirs, where the salinity and/or ionic composition of the injection water is tuned to improve oil recovery. Low-salinity (LS) waterflooding can enhance oil ...
Leveraging atomistic simulations and machine learning for the design of ionic liquids as electrolytes for battery application
(2022-05)
Ionic liquids are classes of salts that are often found in a liquid state composed entirely of ions. They have gained widespread interest in the research community because of several unique and desirable features, such as ...
Advanced process control maintenance capital project management and continuous improvement
(2020-07)
The typical lifespan of Advanced Process Control (APC) projects has been reported to be 18 months to 48 months. This is relatively short considering the process units they serve have a life span of 20-30 years. Briefly, ...
