Impact of mid- Z gas fill on dynamics and performance of shock-driven implosions at the OMEGA laser

Shock-driven implosions with 100% deuterium (D 2 ) gas fill compared to implosions with 50:50 nitrogen-deuterium (N 2 ⁢D 2 ) gas fill have been performed at the OMEGA laser facility to test the impact of the added mid-Ζ fill gas on implosion performance. Ion temperature (Τ ion ) as inferred from the width of measured DD-neutron spectra is seen to be 34%±6% higher for the N 2⁢ D 2 implosions than for the D 2 -only case, while the DD-neutron yield from the D 2 -only implosion is 7.2±0.5 times higher than from the N 2⁢ D 2 gas fill. The T ion enhancement for N 2 ⁢D 2 is observed in spite of the higher Z, which might be expected to lead to higher radiative loss, and higher shock strength for the D 2 -only versus N 2 ⁢D 2 implosions due to lower mass, and is understood in terms of increased shock heating of N compared to D, heat transfer from N to D prior to burn, and limited amount of ion-electron-equilibration-mediated additional radiative loss due to the added higher-Z material. Further, this picture is supported by interspecies equilibration timescales for these implosions, constrained by experimental observables. The one-dimensional (1D) kinetic Vlasov-Fokker-Planck code ifp and the radiation hydrodynamic simulation codes hyades (1D) and xrage [1D, two-dimensional (2D)] are brought to bear to understand the observed yield ratio. Comparing measurements and simulations, the yield loss in the N 2 ⁢D 2 implosions relative to the pure D 2 -fill implosion is determined to result from the reduced amount of D 2 in the fill (fourfold effect on yield) combined with a lower fraction of the D 2 fuel being hot enough to burn in the N 2 ⁢D 2 case. The experimental yield and T ion ratio observations are relatively well matched by the kinetic simulations, which suggest interspecies diffusion is responsible for the lower fraction of hot D 2 in the N 2 ⁢D 2 relative to the D 2 -only case. The simulated absolute yields are higher than measured; a comparison of 1D versus 2D XRAGE simulations suggest that this can be explained by dimensional effects. The hydrodynamic simulations suggest that radiative losses primarily impact the implosion edges, with ion-electron equilibration times being too long in the implosion cores. The observations of increased T ion and limited additional yield loss (on top of the fourfold expected from the difference in D content) for the N 2 ⁢D 2 versus D 2 -only fill suggest it is feasible to develop the platform for studying CNO-cycle-relevant nuclear reactions in a plasma environment.

Rupture Dynamics Simulations of Shallow Crustal Earthquakes on Reverse Slip Faults

The main goal of this study was to perform dynamic rupture simulations in order constrain the characterization of kinematic rupture models implemented in techniques for simulating strong ground motion for crustal earthquakes. First, we investigated the rupture process of the 2008 Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake by developing a dynamic rupture model on a reverse fault using a trial-and-error technique that produced a slip distribution and near-fault ground motion that matched the recorded ones. The simulations were performed in the frequency range 0-2 Hz, using a 3D staggered grid finite-difference method and a linear slip weakening friction law. Constrained by the observed slip distribution and consistent with dynamic rupture models, the derived kinematic rupture model of the Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake contains areas with relatively large slip rate, representing strong motion generation areas, set against lower amplitude heterogeneous background slip, and a relatively low slip rate in the weak zone of the top-most crust (upper 3km). Second, we performed rupture dynamics modeling to constrain shallow slip characterization in rupture models for strike-slip crustal earthquakes. The objective was to establish general rules about the characterization of slip rate function and slip at shallow depths and in the strong motion generation areas (SMGAs). The simulations of spontaneous rupture were performed in the frequency range 0-2.0Hz, using a 3D staggered-grid finite-difference method and a layer over half-space 1D crustal velocity model with a minimum shear-wave velocity of 2.8 km/s. In order to account for changes in material ductility and reduction of stress drop, observed in the shallow crust (upper 3-5 km), and the transition from ductile state to brittle state in the upper seismogenic zone, in our stress models we included a shallow weak zone (<4km). In this zone the stress drop was set to zero at the free surface and gradually increased with depth, while the slip weakening distance was set to 75 cm at the free surface and decreased to 50 cm at the base of the weak zone. As in the case of reverse faulting during the Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake, from these computations we found a systematic change in the shape of the slip-rate function, from Kostrov-type in the deeper part of the fault to a more symmetric cosine-type in the upper few kilometers, near the free-surface. Moreover, the average slip duration in the weak zone, with respect to slip duration in the deeper parts of the fault, increases by at most a factor of 1.5. We found a systematic and gradual change in the shape of the slip-rate function from Kostrov-type in the asperity areas (SMGAs), to more symmetric cosine-type in the upper few km near the free-surface, on the long period motion generation area (LMGA). The effective rise time in the LMGA, with respect to that in the SMGAs, increases by at most a factor of 2. Effective rise time is the time difference between the time at which the slip rate drops to a level that is equal to 25% of its peak and the onset time of the signal. In addition, the slip in the LMGA located above the SMGAs is almost the same as the one in the SMGAs, and about 1.5 times larger than the average slip.

Controlled Fabrication of Quality ZnO NWs/CNTs and ZnO NWs/Gr Heterostructures via Direct Two-Step CVD Method

A novel and advanced approach of growing zinc oxide nanowires (ZnO NWs) directly on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and graphene (Gr) surfaces has been demonstrated through the successful formation of 1D–1D and 1D–2D heterostructure interfaces. The direct two-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method was utilized to ensure high-quality materials’ synthesis and scalable production of different architectures. Iron-based universal compound molecular ink was used as a catalyst in both processes (a) to form a monolayer of horizontally defined networks of SWCNTs interfaced with vertically oriented ZnO NWs and (b) to grow densely packed ZnO NWs directly on a graphene surface. We show here that our universal compound molecular ink is efficient and selective in the direct synthesis of ZnO NWs/CNTs and ZnO NWs/Gr heterostructures. Heterostructures were also selectively patterned through different fabrication techniques and grown in predefined locations, demonstrating an ability to control materials’ placement and morphology. Several characterization tools were employed to interrogate the prepared heterostructures. ZnO NWs were shown to grow uniformly over the network of SWCNTs, and much denser packed vertically oriented ZnO NWs were produced on graphene thin films. Such heterostructures can be used widely in many potential applications, such as photocatalysts, supercapacitors, solar cells, piezoelectric or thermal actuators, as well as chemical or biological sensors.

SULI Internship Deliverables (Flow Orifice Design: Measuring Degas Flow of Experiment Loops at the Advanced Test Reactor)

These deliverables present a design for a new orifice flow meter to be installed in three experiment loops at the Advanced Test Reactor. The current configuration of the experiment loop system has an orifice that is not properly sized to the low flow rates of the degas line of the pressurizer system, causing inaccurate flow measurements. Under consideration of flow conditions and system constraints, an iterative procedure was utilized to determine the optimal sizing for a new orifice. This orifice is designed to accurately and precisely measure the flow rate of the degas line, which will consequently improve control of the pressure and chemistry of the loop pressurizer system. The scope of this project includes recommendations for orifice sizing, material, flange type, face type, and installation location on the loop piping spools. The design is suitable for experiment loops 1D-N, 2B-SE, and 2D-SW and meets all necessary standards.

Probing Pore Size and Connectivity in Porous Silicas Using 13C MAS NMR Spectroscopy of Supercritical Methane

Measuring the pore size and pore-size distributions and exploring the fluid-exchange dynamics between different types of pores in porous materials remains a significant experimental challenge but is critical to understanding catalysis, chromatography, nutrient cycling, and a whole range of geochemical phenomena, including shale gas and tight gas extraction. Here, we present the results of 1D 13 C NMR and 2D exchange spectroscopy (EXSY) NMR investigations of a porous silica using supercritical methane (scCH 4 ) as a direct probe of pore size and fluid exchange between pore types. The results show that the 13 C chemical shift of scCH 4 adsorbed in nanometer-scale silica pores becomes more negative with increasing pore diameter, in agreement with trends reported for gas hydrates, zeolites, MOFs, and clays and other microporous (<10 nm pores) geochemical materials. These 13 C chemical shifts follow a natural log–linear trend with pore size in the vacuum-dried porous silicas studied here, allowing one to predict pore size based on the 13 C chemical shift in dry silica nanopores. The EXSY and 1D 13 C NMR results both show that CH 4 exchanges between pore and bulk fluid environments over rate scales from 0.01 to 1 kHz in vacuum-dried samples and that exchange dynamics must be considered when interpreting 13 C NMR of pore-adsorbed CH 4 . Introducing H 2 O to the system causes the 13 C chemical shift to become more negative with increasing H 2 O content as a result of H 2 O preferentially filling small pores, forcing CH 4 to occupy larger pores that are better connected to the bulk environment. Likewise, the 1D 13 C data show a decreased distribution of exchange rates between pore-adsorbed and bulk CH 4 in the presence of H 2 O.

A New Type of Hybrid Copper Iodide as Nontoxic and Ultrastable LED Emissive Layer Material

Perovskite-based light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) are promising candidates for next-generation solid-state lighting and display technologies. However, all current high-performance PeLEDs contain a toxic element (lead) and suffer from relatively low stability. Herein, we report a new type of lead-free LED using low-cost, eco-friendly, and robust copper(I) iodide hybrid material as the emissive layer (EML). Specifically, they are composed of copper iodide chains and organic ligands through ionic and coordinate bonds. Their remarkable stability and solution processability stem from this unique multifold bonding feature. High-quality thin films of 1D-Cu 4 I 6 (bttmp) 2 were fabricated by a simple, one-step spin-coating process. They exhibit high photoluminescence quantum yield (91%) and long-term air stability (>2000 h). An EQE of 5.02% was achieved for a prototype yellow LED using 1D-Cu 4 I 6 (bttmp) 2 EML. Its half-lifetime of 35.5 h obtained in open air outperforms that of most PeLEDs reported to date. Finally, this work opens a new direction for making LEDs based on ecofriendly and robust hybrid materials.

Broadening the scope of high structural dimensionality nanomaterials using pyridine-based curcuminoids

We present a new heteroditopic ligand (3pyCCMoid) that contains the typical skeleton of a curcuminoid (CCMoid) decorated with two 3-pyridyl groups. The coordination of 3pyCCMoid with ZnII centres results in a set of novel coordination polymers (CPs) that display different architectures and dimensionalities (from 1D to 3D). Our work analyses how synthetic methods and slight changes in the reaction conditions affect the formation of the final materials. Great efforts have been devoted toward understanding the coordination entities that provide high dimensional systems, with emphasis on the characterization of 2D materials, including analyses of different types of substrates, stability and exfoliation in water. Here, we foresee the great use of CCMoids in the field of CPs and emphasize 3pyCCMoid as a new-born linker.

Ultrastrong Ionotronic Films Showing Electrochemical Osmotic Actuation

Abstract A multifunctional soft material with high ionic and electrical conductivity, combined with high mechanical properties and the ability to change shape can enable bioinspired responsive devices and systems. The incorporation of all these characteristics in a single material is very challenging, as the improvement of one property tends to reduce other properties. Here, a nanocomposite film based on charged, high‐aspect‐ratio 1D flexible nanocellulose fibrils, and 2D Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene is presented. The self‐assembly process results in a stratified structure with the nanoparticles aligned in‐plane, providing high ionotronic conductivity and mechanical strength, as well as large water uptake. In hydrogel form with 20 wt% liquid, the electrical conductivity is over 200 S cm −1 and the in‐plane tensile strength is close to 100 MPa. This multifunctional performance results from the uniquely layered composite structure at nano‐ and mesoscales. A new type of electrical soft actuator is assembled where voltage as low as ±1 V resulted in osmotic effects and giant reversible out‐of‐plane swelling, reaching 85% strain.

One-dimensional heterocyclic carbene–Au metal–organic frameworks bridging ultra-high vacuum models and scalable liquid-phase growth

The controlled design of molecule–metal interfaces is central to the development of functional nanomaterials for catalysis, sensing, and molecular electronics. Here we show that the adsorption of a Janus-type diimidazolium precursor on gold yields one-dimensional (1D) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)–Au–NHC metal organic frameworks (MOFs) featuring positively charged gold nodes. Using synchrotron X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), near edge X-ray adsorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM), we demonstrate that thermal activation promotes counterion removal and drives the formation of extended 1D arrays, characterized by ∼1.0 nm Au–Au spacing and adatom densities up to 0.6 atom nm −2 (∼4% of surface atoms). Importantly, we translate this ultra-high vacuum (UHV) benchmark into a scalable solution-phase protocol in ethanol, enabling 1D-MOF growth under mild, base-free, open-air conditions. The resulting films retain structural and electronic signatures of UHV-grown systems, bridging model studies and practical synthesis. This approach establishes NHC–metal frameworks as accessible, tunable platforms for catalysis and materials design.

A novel shallow bore ground heat exchanger for ground source heat pump applications—Model development and validation

A novel ground heat exchanger design, the Underground Thermal Battery (UTB), was proposed as a low-cost alternative to the conventional vertical bore ground heat exchanger (VBGHE) for the application of ground source heat pumps (GSHPs). The UTB is designed to be installed in a shallow borehole (less than 6 m deep) and thus could cost much less than the conventional VBGHE, which usually is installed in vertical bores 60 m deep. By utilizing natural convection of water and phase change materials, the UTB tempers its temperature change in response to thermal loads, which helps improve the efficiency of GSHPs. A one-dimensional (1D) model of the UTB has been developed and validated with the measured performance data of a small-scale UTB, as well as the simulation results of a more detailed three dimensional (3D) numerical model, which accounts for both heat transfer and fluid dynamics in the UTB. Further, this 1D model is computationally much more efficient than the 3D model and thus can simulate the annual performance of the UTB with acceptable computation time. The 1D model has been used to evaluate the performance of the UTB so that it can be compared with the conventional VBGHE.

Synthesis and structural properties of a 2D Zn( II ) dodecahydroxy- closo -dodecaborate coordination polymer

Here, in this work, we discuss the synthesis and characterization of a 2D coordination polymer composed of a dianionic perhydroxylated boron cluster, [B 12 (OH) 12 2– ], coordinated to Zn( II )—the first example of a transition metal-coordinated [B 12 (OH) 12 ] 2– compound. This material was synthesized via cation exchange from the starting cesium salt and then subjected to rigorous characterization prior to and after thermal activation. Numerous techniques, including XRD, FTIR, SEM, TGA, and solid-state NMR revealed a 2D coordination polymer composed of sheets of Zn( II ) ions intercalated between planes of boron clusters. The as-synthesized material was then evacuated of solvent via thermal treatment, and atomic-level changes from this transformation were elucidated through a combination of 1D and 2D solid-state NMR analyses of 11 B and 1 H nuclei, suggesting the full removal of coordinated solvent molecules. Evidence also suggested that [B 12 (OH) 12 2– ] can adjust its coordination to Zn( II ) in the solid-state through hemilability of its numerous –OH ligands.

Humidity Disrupts Structural and Chiroptical Properties of Chiral 2D Perovskites

Chiral two-dimensional (2D) hybrid organic–inorganic metal halide perovskite semiconductors have emerged as an exceptional material platform with many design opportunities for spintronic applications. However, a comprehensive understanding of changes to the crystal structure and chiroptical properties upon exposure to atmospheric humidity has not been established. We demonstrate phase degradation to the 1D (MBA)PbI 3 (MBA = methylbenzylammonium) and the hypothetical (MBA) 3 PbI 5 ·H 2 O hydrate phases, accompanied by a reduction and disappearance of the chiroptical response. Firstprinciple simulations show that water molecules preferentially locate at the interface between the organic cations and the inorganic framework, thereby disrupting the hydrogen bonding, impacting both the structural chirality and stability of the material. These findings provide critical insights into phase degradation mechanisms and their impact on chiroptical activity in chiral 2D perovskites.

Accessing One-Dimensional Chains of Halogenoindates(III) in Organic–Inorganic Hybrids

Organic-inorganic hybrids of halogenoindates(III) are typically represented by one of the zero-dimensional units: InX 4 – , InX 5 2– , InX 6 3– , or In 2 X 11 5– . Higher dimensional anionic forms, although not forbidden, have remained almost elusive. Here, in this study, we report for the first time In 3+ -based organic–inorganic hybrids, (C 4 H 5 N 2 S) 2 InCl 5 and (C 4 H 5 N 2 S) 2 InBr 5 , with 1D anionic chains of trans-halide-bridged InX 6 octahedra whose formation is guided by 2-mercaptopyrimidinium cations (C 4 H 5 N 2 S + ). The chains are characterized by the significant ease of deformation, which is reflected in the elongation of the bridging bonds or the displacement of In 3+ ions. The materials show a robust band gap predominantly governed by C 4 H 5 N 2 S + cations. Dielectric relaxation processes in (C 4 H 5 N 2 S) 2 InBr 5 arise from the cations’ dynamics and suggest the ability of the brominated system to accommodate even larger cations. Our work represents a successful attempt to expand the structural diversity of halogenoindates(III) and opens a pathway to reach multifunctional 1D In 3+ -based hybrids.

HOLISTIC ENERGY EFFICIENCY ANALYSIS OF ELECTRIFIED OFF-HIGHWAY MATERIAL HANDLER: FROM DRIVE CYCLE CHARACTERIZATION TO POWERTRAIN, HYDRAULIC, AND THERMAL SYSTEM PERFORMANCE

Three complexities surrounding the operation and testing of hybrid electric, heavy-duty nonroad machines have been addressed experimentally and using 1D simulation. Their resolutions have been intertwined with the development of a prototype machine that was proven to reduce fuel consumption in excess of 20%. A real-world drive cycle that leveraged hydraulic cylinder position was developed and utilized to ensure accurate reproduction of hydraulic work between the baseline and hybrid machines, while simultaneously maintaining less than 5% RMS error in position for main load handling functions. The newly developed, machine-specific drive cycle also contributed towards making equivalent comparisons in energy consumption between machine types through composite performance metrics that were extrapolated over a typical shift duration. Lastly, this work addressed thermal management energy consumption, a topic of increasing popularity when discussing electrified vehicles, by proposing a 1.4% energy savings through special mechanization and control of cooling system components.

Impact of biochar amendments on soil water and plant uptake dynamics under different cropping systems

Abstract Application of biochar amendments in agricultural systems has received much attention in recent years. In this study, we assess the 5‐year impacts of biochar application on soil water and plant interactions for an irrigated fresh market tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) and a rainfed pasture ( Poaceae ) cropping system. In particular, we focus on three varieties of locally produced biochar from agricultural waste materials—almond shell, walnut shell, and almond pruning residues that are pyrolyzed using a mobile pyrolysis unit. We used the soil hydrological model HYDRUS‐1D to explicitly track seasonal and annual soil water fluxes through changes in water retention, drainage, evaporation, and plant water uptake under biochar application. Modeling results show that the application of biochar at 5% increased soil water availability within the top 20 cm for a rainfed system, irrespective of biochar amendment type. This is clearly indicative of higher plant water uptake and greater water use efficiency (WUE) under biochar application. In contrast, a similar biochar amendment for the irrigated system did not affect WUE, instead reducing seasonal soil evaporation loss and thereby reducing irrigation demand. In both cropping systems, year‐to‐year variability in precipitation significantly impacted the total amount of water saved under biochar application with certain amendments retaining more water than others. Given that biochar application increased water retention irrespective of cropping systems, we further used a simple approach to determine yield trade‐off, if any, between control and biochar treatments. Our economic balance clearly demonstrates that the water saved by amending soil with biochar does not offset the yield disparity if compensated with carbon credits and therefore, application of biochar should be actively considered for both its direct and indirect benefits to potential greenhouse gas mitigation (e.g., diverting orchard waste from open burning), water savings, and soil health.

A real-time distributed solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) model for cyber-physical simulation

System integration and dynamic operability between SOEC and balance-of-plant (BoP) components are major technical challenges before realizing rapid load following of SOEC systems. Cyber-physical simulation (CPS) is a leading-edge digital engineering approach and is regarded as the next step beyond Digital Twins. CPS approach can be used to research SOEC system integration and develop dynamic controls prior to actual pilot testing without using a real SOEC. To seamlessly couple with BoP hardware and access non-observable operational parameters (e.g., local temperature gradient) during transients, a distributed one-dimensional (1D) real-time SOEC model was developed. Its real-time execution was demonstrated for 20 to 640 nodes at the fixed time step of 5 ms. A higher excess air ratio enabled smaller local temperature gradients on SOEC solid materials and faster transients upon current density step change from 0.15 to 0.55 A cm -2 . During the transients, the magnitude of the peak temperature gradient nearly doubled in 10 s from -3.5 to -5.9 °C cm -1 . This represents a significant operating risk that can impact the dynamic operability of SOEC systems. In addition, the local temperature gradient was found to change directions on all nodes in SOEC solid materials, with the greatest impact on the upstream nodes. The SOEC model was also tested at the thermal neutral voltage using actual process air flow parameters as variable model inputs. Variable process air temperatures were found to induce alternating local temperature gradients on SOEC solid materials. These are new operational mechanisms for SOEC degradation relevant for load following operational modes yet distinct from previous reports. To mitigate these unfavorable features, the SOEC can be operated at voltages that are slightly (±20 mV) deviated from the thermal neutral voltage. Here, the corresponding net thermal energy change was less than 1.6% of the electric power consumption. This 1D real-time SOEC model established the basis of cyber-physical simulation of SOEC hybrid systems.

Development of a BISON validation case for the TRISO transient irradiations in NSRR using effective heat capacity methods

The current tristructural isotropic (TRISO) fuel assessment and validation database in BISON primarily covers steady- state irradiation and high-temperature furnace testing. Transient assessment cases are potentially needed to support U.S. industry efforts in designing and deploying commercial reactors using TRISO fuels. Historical transient tests in- volving TRISO fuels used highly conservative conditions compared to the typical high-temperature gas-cooled reactor accident scenarios. Despite this, modeling historical transient tests is fundamental for evaluating BISON’s predictive capabilities, adapting material properties for high-temperature and high-particle-power regimes, and developing a sys- tematic validation approach for TRISO transient applications. This work developed a 1D model of transient experiments carried out at the Nuclear Safety Research Reactor using BISON. BISON’s predictions of energy deposition, UO 2 melting onset, and molten volume fractions are compared against experimental measurements. Melting was modeled using an effective specific heat capacity model for UO 2 . We found that BISON’s predictions are in reasonable agreement with experimental data for low-energy-deposition cases, and that BISON overpredicts melting at higher energy depositions. We also discuss the potential causes of discrepancies between the simulated and measured results and propose ways to further develop the model. Although these simulations used conservative conditions compared to those expected for actual TRISO-fueled reactors, they extended the range of conditions reflected in the data in the existing BISON database for TRISO fuels.
