Oil and gas pipelines generally traverse over a large distance through various ground conditions, from relatively flat areas to sloping grounds such as crossing hills, mountain ridges and rivers. Ground deformation/slope failure and upheaval buckling during operation pose a major threat to the structural integrity, safety and operability of the pipelines. In the proposed project, […]

The carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the atmosphere has been increasing continuously due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels, which causes global climate change. Conventional CO2 capture strategies are practical, but they are costly and only lower the rate of CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. To decrease the global concentration of CO2 in […]

To harvest renewable energy from ocean waves, in this research we propose to study innovative triboelectric nanogenerators, a new type of energy harvesters especially good at converting small-scale mechanical motions into electricity. Although ocean wave energy is one of the most abundant and widely distributed renewable energy resources, it has not yet been extensively used […]
