Abstract With its corner-sharing arrangement of octahedral units, tungsten trioxide (WO3) is a flexible ion insertion host studied for decades as an electrode for electrochromic and energy storage applications. More recently, ion insertion into WO3 has been considered for neuromorphic computing applications. Our group utilizes WO3, along with its related tungstic acids (WO3×nH2O) and suboxides […]

Abstract Advanced reactor design and analysis encounters many new and unique challenges with more stringent operation conditions and safety requirements. Reactor physics, the backbone area in nuclear engineering that deals with the neutronics aspect of a nuclear reactor and its associated components, plays a vital role in reactor design and analysis. The principle task of […]

INSTITUTE FOR COMPUTATIONAL ENGINEERING Co-Sponsored by MAE Department Seminar Series Presents: Prof. Perry Johnson University of California, Irvine Supercomputers and the turbulence problem In his Lectures on Physics (in the early 1960s), Nobel Laureate Richard Feynman described the mathematical analysis of fluid turbulence as “the central problem we ought to solve someday.” Around the same […]
