Digital Light Process 3D Printing of Magnetically Aligned Liquid Crystalline Elastomer Free–forms

Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are anisotropic soft materials capable of large dimensional changes when subjected to a stimulus. The magnitude and directionality of the stimuli-induced thermomechanical response is associated with the alignment of the LCE. Recent reports detail the preparation of LCEs by additive manufacturing (AM) techniques, predominately using direct ink write printing. Another AM technique, digital light process (DLP) 3D printing, has generated significant interest as it affords LCE free-forms with high fidelity and resolution. However, one challenge of printing LCEs using vat polymerization methods such as DLP is enforcing alignment. Here, we document the preparation of aligned, main-chain LCEs via DLP 3D printing using a 100 mT magnetic field. Systematic examination isolates the contribution of magnetic field strength, alignment time, and build layer thickness on the degree of orientation in 3D printed LCEs. Informed by this fundamental understanding, DLP is used to print complex LCE free-forms with through-thickness variation in both spatial orientations. Further, the hierarchical variation in spatial orientation within LCE free-forms is used to produce objects that exhibit mechanical instabilities upon heating. DLP printing of aligned LCEs opens new opportunities to fabricate stimuli-responsive materials in form factors optimized for functional use in soft robotics and energy absorption.

Strong Rashba-Dresselhaus Effect in Nonchiral 2D Ruddlesden-Popper Perovskites

Chirality transfer from organic chiral molecules to lead halides is theorized as the origin of the strong Rashba-Dresselhaus effect causing large circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in metal halide perovskites (MHPs). In this report a concrete empirical evidence is provided that such strong CD and CPL can occur even in nonchiral 2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites (RPPs) (BA) 2 (MA) n-1 Pb n I 3n+1 (where MA = CH 3 NH 3 and BA = CH 3 (CH 2 ) 3 NH 3 ). The CD and CPL responses occurring at the excitonic transition of the MHPs are strongest (≈100 mdeg and 4.8%, respectively) when a single lead halide octahedral [PbI 6 ] 4- layer is repeatedly stacked between two nonchiral molecules BA + (n = 1). However, they are rapidly quenched as n increases. It is hypothesized that strong Rashba-Dresselhaus splitting in the 2D RPPs originates the strong CD and CPL signatures. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the large interlayer distortions in the inorganic layers at the organic/inorganic interface give rise to the strong Rashba-Dresselhaus splitting. A Rashba-Dresselhaus field of ≈600 and ≈50 mT for n = 1 and 2, respectively, is estimated by magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy. The studies may have significant impact on designing 2D RPPs with large Rashba-Dresselhaus effects at room temperature for spintronic applications.

Technical and economic feasibility of an integrated ethanol and anthocyanin coproduction process using purple corn stover

The coproduction of high-value anthocyanin extract in the cellulosic ethanol process would diversify the co-product market, increase revenue, and potentially improve the economics of the process. The high anthocyanin concentration in the cob and structural carbohydrates in residual stover make purple corn stover an attractive source for anthocyanin and ethanol coproduction. In this study, we aimed to develop simulation models for processes integrating ethanol production and anthocyanin extraction using purple corn stover, to evaluate their techno-economic feasibility, and to compare their performance with the conventional ethanol production process using corn stover. The annual ethanol production for plants processing 2000 MT dry feedstock / day was 148.6 million L/year for the integrated processes compared with 222.6 million L/year for the conventional process. Anthocyanin production in the modified processes using dilute acid-based and water-based anthocyanin extraction processes was 1779 and 1099 MT/year, respectively. Capital investments for the integrated processes ($\$448.1$ to $\$443.8$ million) were higher than the conventional process ($\$371.9$ million). Due to high revenue from anthocyanin extract, the ethanol production cost for the integrated process using acid-based anthocyanin extraction ($\$0.36$/L) was 34.5% lower than conventional ethanol production ($\$0.55$/L). The ethanol production cost for the integrated process using water-based anthocyanin extraction ($\$0.68$/L) was higher than conventional ethanol production due to low ethanol and anthocyanin yields. The minimum ethanol selling price for the integrated process using acid-based anthocyanin extraction ($\$0.65$/L) was also lower than the conventional process ($\$0.72$/L), indicating an improvement in economic performance.

Design and demonstration of a low‐field magnetic resonance imaging rhizotron for in‐field imaging of energy sorghum roots

Abstract Root phenotyping provides critical information to plant breeders for developing varieties with improved drought tolerance, greater root biomass, and greater nutrient use efficiency. Phenotyping roots in the natural environment is important for understanding the effect of the soil environment on root genotypic expressions. The goal of this work was to design and test a field‐scale mobile low‐field magnetic resonance imaging (LF‐MRI) Rhizotron that produces actionable root phenotyping data. We demonstrated this novel technology for root visualization and quantification using a LF‐MRI Rhizotron operating at 47 mT with two soil types. The LF‐MRI Rhizotron weights 453 kg, with a height of 90 cm, a diameter of 28 cm and an imaging field of view of 28 cm × 28 cm. The unit was operated in a Belk clay (Entic Hapluderts) and Weswood silt loam (Udifluventic Halustepts) generating 2‐D and 3‐D image data sets. The 2‐D image data had a collection time of 16.5 min per image at an image resolution of 2.2 mm per pixel. The 3‐D data had a collection time of 13 h per image with a 2.2 × 2.2 × 2.2 mm voxel resolution. Low‐field magnetic resonance imaging worked well for visualizing roots in moderate to high clay soils, demonstrating the potential for this technology; however, the broad application of this platform is hampered due to the prohibitively long scanning time to obtain 3‐D images. By increasing the field strength, and therefore the signal‐to‐noise ratio, faster scan times can enable a more useful system for root phenotyping.

Tubulin Double Helix: Lateral and Longitudinal Curvature Changes of Tubulin Protofilament

By virtue of their native structures, tubulin dimers are protein building blocks that are naturally pre-programmed to assemble into cytoskeletal polymers known as microtubules (MTs). Here we demonstrate polycation-directed (i.e. electrostatically tunable) assembly of tubulins through tubulin protofilament conformational changes in the longitudinal and lateral directions, creating novel tubulin double helices and various tubular architectures. Synchrotron small angle X-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy reveal a remarkable range of nanoscale assembly structures: single- and double-layered double-helix tubulin tubules. The phase transitions from MTs into the new assemblies are dependent on the size and concentration of polycations. Two characteristic scales that determine the number of observed phases are the size of polycation compared to the size of tubulin (≈4 nm) and MT diameter (≈25 nm). This work suggests the feasibility of “programmable breakdown” of protein nanotubes, tearing MTs into double-stranded tubulins and building up previously undiscovered nanostructures, by using polycations with scissor- and glue-like properties. Importantly, we define a new role of tubulins as two-dimensionally shape-controllable building blocks for novel supramolecular architectures. Furthermore, these findings provide insight into the design of protein-based functional materials, for example, as metallization templates for nanoscale electronic devices, kinesin motor-driving molecular screws, and anticancer drug delivery vehicles.

Contact Angle Measurements Using Sessile Drop and Micro-CT Data from Six Sandstones

Numerous sessile drop and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) studies have been conducted to quantify Geologic Carbon Storage formation wettability by measuring static contact angles (θ); however, the influence of pore geometry remains unknown. In this work, six sandstones (Bandera Brown, Berea, Bentheimer, Mt. Simon, Navajo, and Nugget) are used to measure θ using the two aforementioned experimental methods at identical testing conditions (45°C and 12.41 MPa). The range of θ measured at in situ conditions (micro-CT) exceeds those the range at ex situ (sessile drop method) conditions for all sandstones. However, when droplets with more representative in situ diameters are analyzed, θ averages show ex situ θ exceed those of in situ θ. Pore geometry does influence local θ, but the size of ex situ droplets relative to pore size appears to influence θ. This is an important to consider for future sessile drop studies used for analysis of CO 2 behavior in carbon storage reservoirs.

Driving rapid atomic order in MnAl via low-magnitude magnetic field annealing

Application of a mild (60 mT), uniform magnetic field during short-term thermal treatment of kinetically retained, atomically disordered (paramagnetic) ε-MnAl was found to deliver a significant ~50 % increase in the formation of L1 0 atomically ordered (ferromagnetic) τ-MnAl product phase, compared to that produced by conventional (i.e., zero-field) annealing under identical thermal conditions. The magnetic field, applied in a passive closed-circuit configuration during annealing, induced significant changes in the structural, magnetic, and phase evolution of the material. Computational results based on electronic structure calculations demonstrate that the effective magnetic susceptibility of τ-MnAl is sensitive to the orientation, rather than the magnitude, of an applied magnetic field in the vicinity of the Curie temperature. The uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the L1 0 structure is proposed to act as a filter for selective propagation of the population of τ-MnAl variants that are favorably aligned with the applied field. In this manner, crystallographic “gridlock” is alleviated that would otherwise arise from the coexistence of multiple, energetically equivalent τ-phase variants within the parent ε-phase matrix. These results confirm that static, low-magnitude magnetic field annealing is able to accelerate L1 0 atomic ordering in the MnAl system and likely can exert similar influences in relevant magnetic systems, facilitating efficient tailoring of structure-sensitive magnetic properties for the manufacture of magnetic materials.

Tailoring microstructures with mild magnetic-field processing: A case study of CuNiFe alloys

Combined experimental and computational investigations of the CuNiFe spinodal system confirm that application of a mild magnetic field during thermal treatment alters elemental redistribution and the resulting microstructure, relative to that obtained from zero-field annealing. Spinodal decomposition of a Cu 40 Ni 42 Fe 18 alloy was initiated during thermal treatment at 773 K, conducted either under zero field or modest (60 mT) magnetic f ield conditions for up to 200 h. Periodic (~10 nm) chemical modulations into Cu-rich and NiFe-rich regions were observed under both conditions, with the amplitude and wavelength of the segregated regions increasing with treatment time. However, magnetic field annealing resulted in a more than twofold increase in the amplitude of elemental modulations relative to zero-field conditions – consistent with enhanced diffusional f luxes during spinodal decomposition – while the modulation wavelength remained largely unaffected. These microstructural differences are reflected in various extrinsic magnetic properties. In parallel, first-principles DFT calculations indicate that long-range ferromagnetic order, as induced by an applied magnetic field, substantially alters the strength and nature of atomic interactions, enhancing the thermodynamic instability of the CuNiFe solid solution. Collectively, these results suggest that incorporating a mild (millitesla-level) magnetic field – distinct from the strong (tesla-level) fields commonly used in prior studies – during thermal processing has the potential to deliver enhanced control of microstructures for targeted engineering outcomes.

Underground hydrogen storage resource assessment for the Cook Inlet, Alaska

Underground hydrogen storage will be essential to a hydrogen economy. This work focuses on the challenge of identifying and screening candidate storage systems, given the unique behavior of hydrogen in the subsurface. Here, we describe a resource assessment methodology and apply it to Alaska’s Cook Inlet region. Alaska provides an interesting case study because of its abundant renewable energy resources, relatively low energy demand, and isolated electrical grid. The assessment framework considers each site’s ability to (1) store a specific volume, (2) physically-contain the stored gas, and (3) limit biogeochemical activity. We estimate that reservoirs in the Cook Inlet area could theoretically store a total of 286 TWh (or 8.6 million tonnes [Mt]) in hydrogen working gas in 92 pools. This is likely sufficient to meet both local hydrogen demand and support an array of exportable products. We further identify seven pools that may be especially well-suited for hydrogen storage. Broadly, this work demonstrates a framework for regional resource assessments. On a finer scale, this work supports an early demonstration of porous–media hydrogen storage in the United States.

Evaluation of darunavir-derived HIV-1 protease inhibitors incorporating P2' amide-derivatives: Synthesis, biological evaluation and structural studies

Here, we report here the synthesis and biological evaluation of darunavir derived HIV-1 protease inhibitors and their functional effect on enzyme inhibition and antiviral activity in MT-2 cell lines. The P2' 4-amino functionality was modified to make a number of amide derivatives to interact with residues in the S2' subsite of the HIV-1 protease active site. Several compounds exhibited picomolar enzyme inhibitory and low nanomolar antiviral activity. The X-ray crystal structure of the chloroacetate derivative bound to HIV-1 protease was determined. Interestingly, the active chloroacetate group converted to the acetate functionality during X-ray exposure. The structure revealed that the P2' carboxamide functionality makes enhanced hydrogen bonding interactions with the backbone atoms in the S2'-subsite.

Potent HIV‑1 protease inhibitors containing oxabicyclo octanol-derived P2-ligands: Design, synthesis, and X‑ray structural studies of inhibitor-HIV-1 protease complexes

Here, we describe here the design, synthesis, and X-ray structural studies of a new class of HIV-1 protease inhibitors containing 8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octanol-derived P2 ligands. We investigated the functional effect of these stereochemically defined fused-poly cyclic ligands on enzyme inhibition and antiviral activity in MT-2 cells. The tricyclic core of 8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-6-ol is designed to interact with the residues in the S2 subsite of HIV-1 protease. The syntheses of the ligands were carried out using the [5+2]-cycloaddition as the key step. Several inhibitors exhibited potent enzyme inhibitory activity. High resolution room-temperature X-ray structures of inhibitor-bound HIV-1 protease were determined. These structures provided important molecular insights for further design and optimization of inhibitor potency.

Entropy-based feature selection for capturing impacts in Earth system models with abrupt forcing

This paper presents the development of a new entropy-based feature selection method for identifying and quantifying impacts. Here, impacts are defined as statistically significant differences in spatio-temporal fields when comparing datasets with and without an external forcing in an Earth system model. Temporal feature selection is performed by first computing the cross-fuzzy entropy to quantify similarity of patterns between two datasets and then applying changepoint detection to identify regions of statistically constant entropy. The method is used to capture temperate north surface cooling from a 9-member simulation ensemble of the Mt. Pinatubo volcanic eruption, which injected 10 Tg of SO 2 into the stratosphere. The results estimate a mean difference decrease in near surface air temperature of -0.560 K with a 99% confidence interval between -0.864 K and -0.257 K between April and November of 1992, one year following the eruption. A sensitivity analysis with decreasing SO 2 injection revealed that the impact is statistically significant at 5 Tg but not at 3 Tg. Using identified features, a dependency graph model based on a 9-day lag had significantly fewer nodes than a graph based on monthly means. Furthermore, this demonstrates our method’s ability to perform dimension reduction while still uncovering source-to-impact pathways.

Mobilization of trace metals from caprock and formation rocks at the Illinois Basin – Decatur Project demonstration site under geological carbon dioxide sequestration conditions

One concern for geologic CO 2 sequestration is the potential leakage of CO 2 or CO 2 -saturated brine containing trace metals into overlying aquifers, which poses the risk of adversely affecting underground sources of drinking water. In this work, rock and brine samples collected in the Illinois Basin – Decatur Project (IBDP), a large-scale geological CO 2 sequestration demonstration project in Decatur, Illinois, USA, as well as synthetic brine samples were used to understand the mobilization of trace metals as a result of CO 2 –rock–brine interactions under IBDP-specific conditions (50 °C and 20.6 MPa). Rock sample characterization indicated that, at the IBDP site, trace metal concentrations were greatest in cap rock samples from the Eau Claire Formation, compared with those from formations above and below this Formation. The natural brine samples collected from the Mt. Simon Sandstone reservoir were highly reducing and saline, with trace metal concentrations up to 680 times greater than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency-prescribed drinking water standards. Batch leaching experiments indicated that both trace metal mobilization from rock and immobilization from the brine occurred when high-pressure CO 2 was introduced into the rock-brine system. The amounts of metals mobilized from the rock generally accounted for <5% of the total metals in the rock, but for some metals, including Ni, Pb, and Tl, up to 63% of the metals in the rock were mobilized to the brine. Leaching of trace metals into synthetic brines was different from that into the natural brine. The results of this study provided current information on the trace element sources and will help in risk simulations and experimental design to further evaluate potential impact of leakage on groundwater quality, which is important for future GCS projects to consider for monitoring and containment assurance purposes.

Numerical modeling of electromagnetic field spatiotemporal evolution to evaluate the effects on calcium carbonate crystallization

Calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) scaling is a significant impediment to water systems. Electromagnetic field (EMF) treatment is a promising approach to control scaling owing to its simplicity and low or no energy requirements. However, the underlying mechanisms by which EMF impacts CaCO 3 crystallization remain unclear due to the challenges in measuring the EMFs in feed solutions and the lack of a fundamental understanding of the applied EMFs and the observed physicochemical phenomena. To fill this knowledge gap, a high-fidelity COMSOL model was first developed to simulate EMFs in bulk solutions for three alternating current-induced EMF devices with different configurations and properties. These were then integrated with experimental data to unveil the underlying mechanism by which applied EMFs alter the physicochemical processes. The study revealed that even low-strength EMFs (e.g., electric fields <0.15 V/m and magnetic fields <0.03 mT) promoted CaCO 3 precipitation in bulk solutions. The electric fields created by these EMF devices resulted in higher Lorentz force compared to their induced magnetic fields. In conclusion, the methodology of this study offers the capability to predict the effectiveness of different EMF devices in facilitating crystallization processes, and these mechanistic insights lay the foundation for the smart design of EMF devices for diverse water treatment applications.

Different chemical scaffolds bind to L-phe site in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Phe-tRNA synthetase

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mt), is one of the deadliest infectious diseases. The rise of multidrug-resistant strains represents a major public health threat, requiring new therapeutic options. Bacterial aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRS) have been shown to be highly promising drug targets, including for TB treatment. These enzymes play an essential role in translating the DNA gene code into protein sequence by attaching specific amino acid to their cognate tRNAs. They have multiple binding sites that can be targeted for inhibitor discovery: amino acid binding pocket, ATP binding pocket, tRNA binding site and an editing domain. Recently we reported several high-resolution structures of M. tuberculosis phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase (MtPheRS) complexed with tRNA Phe and either L-Phe or a nonhydrolyzable phenylalanine adenylate analog. Here, in this study, using Nucleic Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) we identified fragments that bind to MtPheRS and we determined crystal structures of their complexes with MtPheRS/tRNA Phe . All the binders interact with the L-Phe amino acid binding site. The analysis of interactions of the new compounds combined with adenylate analog structure provides insights for the rational design of antituberculosis drugs. The 3 ' arm of the tRNA Phe in all the structures was disordered with exception of one complex with D-735 compound. In this structure the 3' CCA end of the acceptor stem is observed in the editing domain of MtPheRS providing insights regarding the post-transfer editing activity of class II aaRS.

magnetoARPES: Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy with magnetic field control

Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES) is a premier technique for understanding the electronic excitations in conductive, crystalline matter, in which the induced photocurrent is collected and dispersed in energy and angle of emission to reveal the energy- and momentum-dependent single particle spectral function A (k,ω). So far, ARPES in a magnetic field has been precluded due to the need to preserve the electron paths between the sample and detector. Here, in this paper we report progress towards “magnetoARPES”, a variant of ARPES that can be conducted in a magnetic field. It is achieved by applying a microscopic probe beam (≲10 μm) to a thinned sample mounted upon a special sample holder that generates magnetic field confined to a thin layer near the sample surface. In this geometry we could produce ARPES in magnetic fields up to around ±100 mT. The magnetic fields can be varied from purely in-plane to nearly purely out-of-plane, by scanning the probe beam across different parts of the device. We present experimental and simulated data for graphene to explore the aberrations induced by the magnetic field. These results demonstrate the viability of the magnetoARPES technique for exploring symmetry breaking effects in weak magnetic fields.

Think before you throw! An analysis of behavioral interventions targeting PET bottle recycling in the United States

The United States generates 42 Mt of plastic waste each year and is one of the biggest contributors to ocean plastic waste. Consequently, plastic has become synonymous with the linear economy, and many scholars are studying and proposing circular economy solutions to mitigate plastic pollution. Recycling has received much attention from both social sciences and engineering as a circular economy strategy, but no study has yet quantified how behavioral interventions could asymmetrically affect different populations. Here, this study combines agent-based modeling, material flow analysis, system dynamics, and life cycle assessment to assess the effect of four behavioral interventions on the collection rates of polyethylene terephthalate bottle waste, displaced virgin plastic manufacturing, and avoided greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Results show that, while behavioral interventions would require about 300–900 GJ of additional energy at end-of-life due to improved collection rates, they would avoid about 500–700 thousand metric tons of GHG emissions. Results also illustrate the importance of habits in disposal behaviors and show that different forms of interventions can be better adapted to particular social contexts than others. While the circular economy and its application to plastic waste should certainly not be restricted to recycling, this study demonstrates that improved collection rates and recycling technologies can contribute to reducing the amount of plastic waste polluting our oceans.

Iron, magnesium, and titanium isotopic fractionations between garnet, ilmenite, f ayalite, biotite, and tourmaline: Results from NRIXS, ab initio , and study of mineral separates from the Moosilauke metapelite

Interpreting isotopic signatures documented in natural rocks requires knowledge of equilibrium isotopic fractionation factors. Here, we determine equilibrium Fe isotope fractionation factors between several common rock-forming minerals using a comparative approach involving three independent methods: (i) isotopic analyses of natural minerals from a metapelite from Mt. Moosilauke, New Hampshire, for which equilibration temperature and pressure are well constrained to be near the aluminosilicate triple point (T ≃ 500 °C, P ≃ 4 kbar), (ii) Nuclear Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (NRIXS) measurements of Fe force constants of minerals, and (iii) Density Functional Theory (DFT) ab initio calculations of Fe force constants of minerals. The minerals studied for Fe isotopes include, in increasing order of their β-factors: garnet < ilmenite ≈ fayalite < biotite < tourmaline < muscovite ≈ plagioclase. Some of this ordering is affected by the presence of Fe 3+ in the minerals, which tends to form stiffer bonds and be associated with heavy Fe isotope enrichments relative to Fe 2+ . We are, however, able to assess the magnitude of the effect of the ratio Fe 3+ /ΣFe on equilibrium fractionation factors, notably on the ilmenite-hematite solid solution. Equilibrium Fe isotopic fractionation factors between garnet, ilmenite, biotite, tourmaline and fayalite are determined. We also report Mg and Ti isotopic compositions of selected Moosilauke minerals that allow us to better constrain the equilibrium fractionation factors for garnet-biotite-tourmaline (Mg isotopes) and biotite-ilmenite (Ti isotopes). We show how the newly determined equilibrium fractionation factors can be used to address diverse problems in Earth and planetary sciences, notably (i) Fe and Mg isotopic fractionation during anatexis, (ii) Fe isotopic fractionation in lunar ilmenite, and (iii) Ti isotopic fractionation during fluvial transport of minerals.
