A hybrid incremental projection method for thermal-hydraulics applications

JOURNAL OF COMPUTATIONAL PHYSICS, 317, 382–404.

author keywords: FVM; FEM; Incompressible flow; Monotonicity-preserving advection; Projection method; Mixed-topology meshes; Thermal-hydraulics
TL;DR: A new second-order accurate, hybrid, incremental projection method for time-dependent incompressible viscous flow that circumvents the well-known Ladyzhenskaya-Babuska-Brezzi conditions for stability, and does not require special treatment to filter pressure modes by either Rhie-Chow interpolation or a Petrov-Galerkin finite element formulation.

Significantly Increasing the Ductility of High Performance Polymer Semiconductors through Polymer Blending

ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES, 8(22), 14037–14045.

author keywords: polymer semiconductors; blend films; vertical segregation; ductility; thin film transistors
TL;DR: The ductility of the blend films is significantly improved compared to that of neat PCDTPT films, and when the blend film is employed in an OTFT, the performance is largely maintained, highlighting a processing approach to achieve high performance polymer OTFTs that are electrically and mechanically optimized.

Point of impact: the effect of size and speed on puncture mechanics

INTERFACE FOCUS, 6(3).

By: P. Anderson*, J. LaCosse & M. Pankow n

author keywords: puncture; cutting; velocity; energy; prey capture
TL;DR: Results from high-speed videography show that projectile velocity can alter how the target gel responds to cutting, and mixed models comparing kinematic variables and puncture patterns indicate that the kinetic energy of a projectile is a better predictor of penetration than either momentum or velocity.

Modeling noncompensatory choices with a compensatory model for a product design search

International Design Engineering Technical Conferences and Computers and Information in Engineering Conference, 2015, vol 2A.

By: J. Shin n & S. Ferguson n

TL;DR: Results from using compensatory models show that noncompensatory choices can lead to distinct segments with extreme part-worths, and the product design search problem suggests that the compensatory model would be preferred due to small design errors and inexpensive computational burden.
