Kirkendall effect-induced uniform stress distribution stabilizes nickel-rich layered oxide cathodes

Nickel-rich layered oxide cathodes promise ultrahigh energy density but is plagued by the mechanical failure of the secondary particle upon (de)lithiation. Existing approaches for alleviating the structural degradation could retard pulverization, yet fail to tune the stress distribution and root out the formation of cracks. Herein, we report...

Multi Physics Simulation of Wafer Bonding with Nano Copper Paste

The significance of wafer bonding is fundamental to the progression of electronic systems. Common fabrication techniques for Cu pillars play a crucial role in establishing resilient and efficient interconnects within semiconductor devices. It is imperative to explore the potential of nano-copper as an alternative material to overcome limitations...

Estimating loss of life caused by dam breaches based on the simulation of floods routing and evacuation potential of population at risk

Dam breaches often have catastrophic consequences in downstream areas. Hydrodynamic factors and the evacuation potential of the population at risk (PAR) have significant impacts on the loss of life (LOL) caused by dam breaches. However, the existing comprehensive evaluation models have not conducted in-depth research on the evacuation...
