Influences of graphite anode area on electrolysis of solid metal oxides in molten salts (2014)
Journal Article
Chen, H., Jin, X., Yu, L., & Chen, G. Z. (2014). Influences of graphite anode area on electrolysis of solid metal oxides in molten salts. Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry, 18(12), 3317-3325. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10008-014-2645-2

Laboratory studies of electrochemical reduction of refractory metal oxides, e.g. TiO2 and Ta2O5, in molten CaCl2 often involve a graphite anode and a cell voltage of 3.0 V or higher, which deviates significantly from thermodynamic predictions. The ca... Read More about Influences of graphite anode area on electrolysis of solid metal oxides in molten salts.

Journal Article
Almeida, T. P., Kasama, T., Muxworthy, A. R., Williams, W., Nagy, L., Hansen, T. W., …Dunin-Borkowski, R. E. (2014). Visualized effect of oxidation on magnetic recording fidelity in pseudo-single-domain magnetite particles. Nature Communications, 5(5154), https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms6154

Magnetite (Fe3O4) is an important magnetic mineral to Earth scientists, as it carries the dominant magnetic signature in rocks, and the understanding of its magnetic recording fidelity provides a critical tool in the field of palaeomagnetism. However... Read More about Visualized effect of oxidation on magnetic recording fidelity in pseudo-single-domain magnetite particles.

Closed sets of correlations: answers from the zoo (2014)
Journal Article
Lang, B., Vértesi, T., & Navascués, M. (2014). Closed sets of correlations: answers from the zoo. Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 47(42), Article 424029. https://doi.org/10.1088/1751-8113/47/42/424029

We investigate the conditions under which a set of multipartite nonlocal correlations can describe the distributions achievable by distant parties conducting experiments in a consistent universe. Several questions are posed, such as: are all such set... Read More about Closed sets of correlations: answers from the zoo.

Experimental investigation on EV battery cooling and heating by heat pipes (2014)
Journal Article

Electrochemical reduction of solid GeO2 has been investigated in the mixed CaCl2-NaCl melt at 1023 K for developing a more efficient process for preparation of Ge. Cyclic voltammetry and potentiostatic electrolysis were applied to study the GeO2-load... Read More about Investigation of electrochemical reduction of GeO2 to Ge in molten CaCl2-NaCl.

Turbulent ‘stopping plumes’ and plume pinch-off in uniform surroundings (2014)
Journal Article
Kattimeri, A., & Scase, M. M. (2014). Turbulent ‘stopping plumes’ and plume pinch-off in uniform surroundings. Environmental Fluid Mechanics, 15(5), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10652-014-9387-7

Observations of turbulent convection in the environment are of variously sus- tained plume-like flows or intermittent thermal-like flows. At different times of the day the prevailing conditions may change and consequently the observed flow regimes ma...
