Evaluating Battery Degradation Models in Rolling-Horizon BESS Arbitrage Optimization

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can benefit from price volatility in electricity markets, but frequent cycling increases degradation and reduces long-term value. This study develops a rolling-horizon dispatch framework in which batter...

Scalable micro/nanostructured superhydrophobic surface modifications for enhanced energy efficiency and heat transfer performance in stainless steel and titanium

Condensation refers to the change of a substance from a gaseous phase to a liquid phase, an example of which is the condensation of water vapor in nature. Condensation is used in many industries, such as energy generation and seawater desal...

Study on the Growth Kinetics and Morphology of Methane Hydrate Film in a Porous Glass Microfluidic Device

Natural gas hydrates are widely considered one of the most promising green resources with large reserves. Most natural gas hydrates exist in deep-sea porous sediments. In order to achieve highly efficient exploration of natural gas hydrates...

Molecular Interactions at Asperity Contacts Under Boundary Lubrication

Boundary lubrication plays a crucial role in determining the service performance and operational lifespan of mechanical components. However, continuum mechanics models and experimental studies are unable to elucidate the dynamic evolution o...

Influence of thin surface oxide films on hydrogen isotope release from ion-irradiated tungsten

We studied the influence of thin, electro-chemically grown tungsten (W) surface oxide films on hydrogen isotope release from W. As deuterium (D) reservoir underneath the oxide, we used a defect-rich, ion-irradiated W layer that was filled w...

Discovery of sulfone-resistant dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS) as a target enzyme for kaempferol, a natural flavanoid

Kaempferol is a ubiquitous flavonoid, found in various plants having a wide range of known pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, antiinflammatory, anticancer, antiallergic, antidiabetic, neuroprotective, cardioprotective and an...

The Role of Ribosomal Protein S6 Kinases in Plant Homeostasis

The p70 ribosomal S6 kinase (S6K) family is a group of highly conserved kinases in eukaryotes that regulates cell growth, cell proliferation, and stress response via modulating protein synthesis and ribosomal biogenesis. S6Ks are downstream...
