A phenomenological model to simulate the superelastic effect in nickel–titanium (NiTi) alloys is proposed. The model is able to simulate the stress–strain hysteretic behaviour of the material in a phenomenological way by using the Prandtl–Ishlinskii operator. The parameters of the phenomenological model are identified…

Opposites attract (selectively): Oppositely charged nanoparticles characterized by different size distributions form 3D supracrystals (see figure) only if the distributions overlap. Crystal quality decreases rapidly with decreasing degree of overlap, and, irrespective of the ratio of particle diameters/charges, no cry…

Natural gas with a high methane concentration is an important source of primary fuel for fuel cells, although it contains sulfur compounds, such as tetrahydrothiophene (THT), known as a poison for the fuel cell catalyst parts. Desulfurization of natural gas fuel in ambient conditions is thus essential before it enters…

We recently reported (Yang, J.; et al. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 882) a novel hydrogen storage composite involving a 2:1:1 LiNH 2:LiBH 4:MgH 2 ratio. On the basis of in-depth experimental and computational analysis, this composite was found to release hydrogen via a complex multistep reaction cascade, which see…
