Structural Design Inspired by the Multiscale Mechanics of the Lightweight and Energy Absorbent Cuttlebone
… cuttlefish, offers an intriguing biological structural model for designing low-density cellular ceramics with high stiffness and damage tolerance. Cuttlebone is highly porous (porosity ~93%) and lightweight (density less than 20% of seawater), constructed mainly by brittle aragonite (95 wt%), but …

Characterization of pool boiling heat transfer from porous-coating-enhanced surfaces
… management technologies has been a highly active area of research in recent decades in response to the rapid emergence of compact, high-power electronic systems. Immersion cooling by boiling is one of the preferred methods for high power density applications, due to its passive nature and …

The palaeobiology of the late Permian dicynodont Endothiodon (Therapsida, Anomodontia)
… taxonomy, dental histology and postural reconstructions of Endothiodon based on the crania and postcrania of the taxon. Despite a few interventions over the years, the taxonomy of the genus Endothiodon has been in a stateof confusion since the late 19th century. While an abundance of cranial …

Experimental investigation of the fluid driven carbonation of serpentinites and spinel-peridotites: implications for the carbon and trace element cycle in the forearc region of the mantle wedge
… amounts of carbon (C) are released from the subducting slab into fluids, but less carbon is outgassed in arc volcanoes implying the storage of C in the mantle wedge. This experimental study investigates the fate of C bearing aqueous fluids when they travel through the (partially) hydrated forearc …

Developing NMR/MRI Techniques for Characterisation of Reactive Transport in Porous Media
Reactive flow in porous media is a complex transport phenomenon which involves the simultaneous flow and reaction of a fluid in a porous medium and plays a critical role in improving our understanding of carbon sequestration. When CO<sub>2</sub> is introduced into a storage site, which might be a …

Characterization of carbon ablators for hypersonic thermal protection systems
… environment depends entirely on the thermal protection system (TPS). Ablative materials, which dissipate aerothermal energy through controlled decomposition, are a commonly selected TPS material, with carbon-based variants often preferred for their superior thermochemical performance at high …
