Guo, L. (author), Van der Wegen, M. (author), Jay, D.A. (author), Matte, P. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author), Roelvink, J.A. (author), He, Q. (author)River-tide dynamics remain poorly understood, in part because conventional harmonic analysis (HA) does not cope effectively with nonstationary signals. To explore nonstationary behavior of river tides and the modulation effects of river discharge, this work analyzes tidal signals in the Yangtze River estuary using both HA in a nonstationary mode...journal article 2015

(author), Zhang, Changkuan (author)Morphodynamic equilibrium is a widely adopted yet elusive concept in the field of geomorphology of coasts, rivers and estuaries. Based on the Exner equation, an expression of mass conservation of sediment, we distinguish three types of equilibrium defined as static and dynamic, of which two different types exist. Other expressions such as...journal article 2016

(author), Li, Baohua (author), Yang, Quan Hong (author), Kang, Feiyu (author)Nanosized Li<sub>4</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub> (LTO) materials enabling high rate performance suffer from a large specific surface area and low tap density lowering the cycle life and practical energy density. Microsized LTO materials have high density which generally compromises their rate capability. Aiming at combining the favorable...journal article 2017

Yi, Ran (author), Wu, Chenming (author), Liu, Yong-Jin (author), He, Ying (author), Wang, C.C. (author)This paper presents a 3-D printing system that uses a low-cost off-the-shelf consumer projector to fabricate large models. Compared with traditional digital light processing (DLP) 3-D printers using a single vertical carriage, the platform of our DLP 3-D printer using delta mechanism can also move horizontally in the plane. We show that this...journal article 2018

Zhu, C. (author), Guo, Leicheng (author), van Maren, D.S. (author), Tian, Bo (author), Wang, Xianye (author), He, Qing (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author)The morphology of the Yangtze Estuary has changed substantially at decadal time scales in response to natural processes, local human interference and reduced sediment supply. Due to its high sediment load, the morphodynamic response time of the estuary is short, providing a valuable semi-natural system to evaluate large-scale estuarine...journal article 2019

Guo, Leicheng (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author), Townend, Ian (author), He, Qing (author)Tidal wave deformation and tidal asymmetry widely occur in tidal estuaries and lagoons. Tidal asymmetry has been intensively studied because of its controlling role on residual sediment transport and large‐scale morphological evolution. There are several methods available to characterize tidal asymmetry prompting the need for an overview of...journal article 2019

(author)The ubiquitous biomacromolecule DNA has an axial rigidity persistence length of ~50 nm, driven by its elegant double helical structure. While double and multiple helix structures appear widely in nature, only rarely are these found in synthetic non-chiral macromolecules. Here we report a double helical conformation in the densely charged...journal article 2019

Wang, M. (author), He, Lijuan (author), Infante Ferreira, C.A. (author)Unfavorable transport properties have always been pointed out as the key factors that hinder the application of ammonia/ionic liquids (NH <sub>3</sub> /ILs) in absorption cycles, while heat and mass transfer of these new fluids in components have been rarely reported. In this study, a corrugated plate heat exchanger is selected as the...journal article 2019

Lin, J. (author), He, Qing (author), Guo, Leicheng (author), van Prooijen, Bram (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author)Accurate measurement of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in highly turbid environments has been a problem due to optical or acoustic signal saturation and attenuation. The saturation returns a limited measurement range, and the attenuation raises an ambiguity problem that a low optical or acoustic output could mean a low or a high SSC....journal article 2020
