Fine-tuning selective layer architecture of hydrogel membrane towards high separation performances for engineered osmosis by Qin, Detao, Liu, Zhaoyang, Bai, Hongwei, Song, Xiaoxiao, Li, Zhengtao, Sun, Darren Delai

“…Analysis of reverse osmosis (RO) experimental results reveals hydrogel layer resistance to water permeation is linearly reduced by 1.40 × 1013 m−1 as the layer is tailored thinner per 10 nm, which leads to the remarkable enhancement of water permeability by ~10 times from 0.49 L m−2 h−1 bar−1 of 500 nm thickness to 4.75 L m−2 h−1 bar−1 of 30 nm thickness. …”

Data-driven forward and inverse analysis of two-dimensional soil consolidation using physics-informed neural network by Wang, Yu, Shi, Chao, Shi, Jiangwei, Lu, Hu

“…Employing machine learning algorithms to forecast the behavior of nonlinear spatiotemporal systems, such as soil consolidation induced by land reclamation, has been popular in recent years. Although pure data-driven models demonstrate strong performance within their training domain, i.e., in-sample prediction, they lack interpretability and might have poor generalization outside the training domain, i.e., out-of-sample prediction, particularly when the observed geodata is limited. …”

Tin oxide based dye sensitized solar cells by Teh, Jun Jie

“…Besides, common problem of low fill factor (FF) in tin oxide based DSSC has been solved through gallium doping. Optimum gallium doping which moderate up-shift of tin oxide band edge results in better charge injection from dye to electrode and impedes electron from recombination with electrolyte, which in turn to increase Voc and power conversion efficiency. …”
