The low overpotential regime of acidic water oxidation part II: trends in metal and oxygen stability numbers by Scott, Soren B., Sørensen, Jakob E., Rao, Reshma R., Moon, Choongman, Kibsgaard, Jakob, Shao-Horn, Yang, Chorkendorff, Ib

“…These observations together lead us to a full mechanistic picture in which dissolution and labelled OER are side processes to the main electrocatalytic cycle. We emphasize the importance of quantitative analysis and point out that since less than 0.2% of evolved oxygen contains an oxygen atom originating from the catalyst itself, lattice oxygen evolution is at most a negligible contribution to overall OER activity for RuOx and IrOx in acidic electrolyte.…”

Experimental and numerical study of self-locking adaptable inter connection for modular steel structures by Nadeem, Gohar, Safiee, Nor Azizi, Bakar, Nabilah Abu, Karim, Izian Abd, Mohd Nasir, Noor Azline

“…The findings indicated that the gap produced between connection and column under higher displacement was sensitive to the outer bolt and spring pin. This gap could be further reduced by increasing the number of outer bolts and by reducing tolerance between adapter and column walls.…”

Editable supercapacitors with customizable stretchability based on mechanically strengthened ultralong MnO2 nanowire composite by Lv, Zhisheng, Luo, Yifei, Tang, Yuxin, Wei, Jiaqi, Zhu, Zhiqiang, Zhou, Xinran, Li, Wenlong, Zeng, Yi, Zhang, Wei, Zhang, Yanyan, Qi, Dianpeng, Pan, Shaowu, Loh, Xian Jun, Chen, Xiaodong

“…As a representative of concept for system integration, the editable supercapacitors are integrated with a strain sensor, and the system exhibits a stable sensing performance even under arm swing. Being highly stretchable, easily programmable, as well as connectable in series and parallel, an editable supercapacitor with customizable stretchability is promising to produce stylish energy storage devices to power various portable, stretchable, and wearable devices.…”
