Ice adhesion tests are widely used to assess the performance of potential icephobic surfaces and coatings. A great variety of test designs have been developed and used over the past decades due to the lack of formal standards for these types of tests. In...

This study aimed to develop a two-color pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) that has both high pressure sensitivity and high temperature sensitivity. Different nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) derivatives were used as the temperature probe. Among them, NBD-ZY37 demo...

Neuromodulators at the periphery, such as neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), have been developed as add-on tools to regain upper extremity (UE) paresis after stroke, but this recovery has often been limited. To overcome these limits, novel stra...

Icing on an aircraft is the cause of numerous adverse effects on aerodynamic performance. Although the issue was recognized in the 1920s, the icing problem is still an area of ongoing research due to the complexity of the icing phenomena. This review art...

For most re-entry capsules, the shape of the forebody of the capsule is designed based on the blunted nose cone. A similar shape can be created using a hyperboloid of revolution that can control the nose bluntness and the half angle of the cone easily. I...

In-flight icing for aircraft is a large concern for all those involved in aircraft operations. Generally, an electric heater has been used to prevent in-flight icing. A hybrid anti-icing system combining ice-phobic coating and electrothermal heating (ICE...

Polymer-ceramic pressure-sensitive paint (PC-PSP) has been used for capturing unsteady pressure over aerodynamic surfaces. Spatial and temporal pressure information is calculated from the luminescent intensity produced by a PC-PSP, which provides a nonin...
