Summary: In this study, MXene transparent conductive films were fabricated via a transfer process. The transferred films using titanium carbide MXene showed approximately 100 times higher electrical conductivity than conventional spray-coated samples. The amount of MXene materials easily controlled the transparency and electrical conductivity. Scanning electron microscopy observations revealed a smooth and uniform MXene flake network in the transferred films. The X-ray diffraction measurement confirmed the closer interlayer distance of the MXene flakes compared to the spray-coated sample, leading to superior electrical conductivity.

Summary: Due to limitations in visualization techniques and low-resolution numerical models, the detailed behavior of oil droplets during microfiltration is not well understood. In this study, a high-resolution CFD model based on an in-house DNS code was used to analyze the dynamics of oil-in-water emulsions using a microfiltration membrane. The microporous structure of commercial ceramic membranes was obtained using image processing techniques, and numerical simulations of microfiltration were conducted to study the effects of different parameters on filtration performance. The results showed that droplet deformation and membrane structure significantly influenced filtration behavior and performance.

Summary: In this study, the rheological properties and microstructure formation of a ternary particle/oil/water dispersion system under shear flow were numerically investigated. The water-phase volume fraction and shear rate were found to significantly affect the microstructure and apparent viscosity. This is the first numerical study to demonstrate the correlation between microstructure formation and apparent viscosity in a ternary dispersion.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of particle shape on the collapse of granular columns using the discrete element method. The results show that particle shape has a significant impact on deposition morphology, energy evolution, and mechanical coordination number. Sphericity and angularity are identified as the most important macroscale factors, while roughness has a weaker microscale influence.
