In-situ Water quality monitoring in Oil and Gas operations
Satish Kumar, Rui Kou, Henry Hill +3
From agriculture to mining, to energy, surface water quality monitoring is an essential task. As oil and gas operators work to reduce the consumption of freshwater, it is increasin…
Electrostatic Force Suspended-Air Multilayer (EPAM) Structure for Highly Transparent Energy Efficient Windows
Ying Zhong, Rui Kou, Renkun Chen +1
The poor thermal insulating building windows, especially single pane windows, are wasting ~7% of the total energy consumed by the U.S. every year. This paper presents an electrosta…
Corona-Enabled Electrostatic Printing for Ultra-Fast R2R Manufacturing of Binder-Free Multifunctional E-Skins
Long Wang, Rui Kou, Zhaoru Shang +2
As essential components in intelligent systems, printed soft electronics (PSEs) are playing crucial roles in public health, national security, and economics. Innovations in printin…
Molecular-Sized Outward-Swinging Gate: Experiment and Theoretical Analysis of a Locally Nonchaotic Barrier
Yu Qiao, Zhaoru Shang, Rui Kou
We investigate the concept of molecular-sized outward-swinging gate, which allows for entropy decrease in an isolated system. The theoretical analysis, the Monte Carlo simulation,…
Algae-Filler Artificial Timber with an Ultralow Binder Content
Haozhe Yi, Kiwon Oh, Rui Kou +1
Algae cultivation is an active area of study for carbon sequestration, while the large amount of produced algae must be upcycled. In the current study, we fabricated artificial tim…
Thermal Insulating Polymer-Air Multilayer for Window Energy Efficiency
Rui Kou, Ying Zhong, Qingyang Wang +3
Polymer-air multilayer (PAM) was developed to decrease the heat loss through window glass panes. A PAM consists of a few polymer films separated from each other by air gaps. Thanks…
Flow electrification of corona-charged polyethylene terephthalate film
Rui Kou, Ying Zhong, Yu Qiao
Corona charging a free-standing polymer film can produce a quasi-permanent potential difference across the film thickness, while the absolute amplitude of surface voltage may be hi…
Sand-Filler Structural Material with Low Content of Polyethylene Binder
Haozhe Yi, Kiwon Oh, Rui Kou +1
Currently, most of the waste plastics cannot be recycled, causing serious environmental concerns. In this research, we investigated a compaction formation technology to fabricate s…
Compaction Self-Assembly of Ultralow-Binder-Content Thermoplastic Composites Based on Lunar Soil Simulant
Kiwon Oh, Tzehan Chen, Rui Kou +2
In a recent study, we developed ultralow-binder-content (UBC) structural materials based on lunar soil simulant and thermoset binders. In the current research, we investigated ther…
