Experiential learning is a key component in engineering education. In civil engineering, this component is typically delivered through multiple projects. These projects may include term projects for individual courses, senior design projects, theses, or independent studies. The focus of...

Nonuniversality and Finite Dissipation in Decaying Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence.

Physical review letters

Linkmann MF, Berera A, McComb WD, McKay ME.
PMID: 26196807
Phys Rev Lett. 2015 Jun 12;114(23):235001. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.114.235001. Epub 2015 Jun 11.

A model equation for the Reynolds number dependence of the dimensionless dissipation rate in freely decaying homogeneous magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in the absence of a mean magnetic field is derived from the real-space energy balance equation, leading to Cϵ=Cϵ,∞+C/R-+O(1/R-(2)), where...

Observation of spin Seebeck contribution to the transverse thermopower in Ni-Pt and MnBi-Au bulk nanocomposites.

Nature communications

Boona SR, Vandaele K, Boona IN, McComb DW, Heremans JP.
PMID: 27941927
Nat Commun. 2016 Dec 12;7:13714. doi: 10.1038/ncomms13714.

Transverse thermoelectric devices produce electric fields perpendicular to an incident heat flux. Classically, this process is driven by the Nernst effect in bulk solids, wherein a magnetic field generates a Lorentz force on thermally excited electrons. The spin Seebeck...

Crystal Structure of the ZrO Phase at Zirconium/Zirconium Oxide Interfaces.

Advanced engineering materials

Nicholls RJ, Ni N, Lozano-Perez S, London A, McComb DW, Nellist PD, Grovenor CR, Pickard CJ, Yates JR.
PMID: 25892957
Adv Eng Mater. 2015 Feb;17(2):211-215. doi: 10.1002/adem.201400133. Epub 2014 Jun 27.

Zirconium-based alloys are used in water-cooled nuclear reactors for both nuclear fuel cladding and structural components. Under this harsh environment, the main factor limiting the service life of zirconium cladding, and hence fuel burn-up efficiency, is water corrosion. This...

Mapping functional groups on oxidised multi-walled carbon nanotubes at the nanometre scale.

Chemical communications (Cambridge, England)

Goode AE, Hine ND, Chen S, Bergin SD, Shaffer MS, Ryan MP, Haynes PD, Porter AE, McComb DW.
PMID: 24827593
Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Jun 28;50(51):6744-7. doi: 10.1039/c4cc02026j.

Despite voluminous research on the acid oxidation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), there is a distinct lack of experimental results showing distributions of functional groups at the nanometre length scale. Here, functional peaks have been mapped across individual multi-walled CNTs...

DNA interpopulational variation in Siberian indigenous populations: The mountain Altai.

American journal of human biology : the official journal of the Human Biology Council

McComb J, Crawford MH, Osipova L, Karaphet T, Posukh O, Schanfield MS.
PMID: 28561335
Am J Hum Biol. 1996;8(5):599-607. doi: 10.1002/(SICI)1520-6300(1996)8:5<599::AID-AJHB5>3.0.CO;2-R.

Using mtDNA and classical markers, previous studies have found that the Altai are genetically divergent from the rest of Siberia. This study uses five variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) loci to examine the relationship of the Altai to other...

Boba K, Bianchi M, McCombe G, Gatt R, Griffin AC, Richardson RM, Scarpa F, Hamerton I, Grima JN.
PMID: 27377708
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces. 2016 Aug 10;8(31):20319-28. doi: 10.1021/acsami.6b02809. Epub 2016 Jul 26.

We describe a new class of negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) open cell PU-PE foams produced by blocking the shape memory effect in the polymer. Contrary to classical NPR open cell thermoset and thermoplastic foams that return to their auxetic...

Nakano T, McComb WD, Geurts BJ.
PMID: 12636810
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2003 Feb;67(2):026317. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.67.026317. Epub 2003 Feb 27.

We investigate the nonlinear coupling between the so-called explicit modes, identified with wave numbers k such that 0< or =k< or =k(c), and implicit modes, defined such that k(c)< or =k< or =k(max). Here k(c) is an arbitrarily chosen...

Conditional elimination of degrees of freedom is shown to lead to an exact expression for the rate of turbulent energy dissipation in terms of a renormalized viscosity and a correction. The correction is neglected on the basis of a...
