Article Abstract
Due to the numerous geometric parameters and complex hydraulic behaviors of piano key weirs (PKWs), accurately estimating their discharge capacity remains challenging without in-depth experimental studies or computational modeling. This study compares and analyzes recent discharge equations and develops new relationships between key parameters influencing the discharge capacity of PKWs, including the weir height , weir width , and effective crest length . A modified theoretical discharge equation is proposed, derived from dimensional analysis and supported by existing experimental data. The calculated values from the equation agree well with the earlier experimental and the prototype observation results. For the relative water head / range from 0.1 to 1.5, the mean absolute percentage error remains below 8%. The proposed modified discharge method offers high accuracy and a simple form, providing a more precise description of the influence of PKW geometric parameters on discharge capacity, making it highly practical for engineering applications.

This study systematically investigates the role of nitrogen annealing in enhancing the structural and electrochemical properties of ZnNiO/NF composite anode materials synthesized via hydrothermal methods. By comparing air-annealed and nitrogen-annealed (400 and 600 °C) samples, it is demonstrated that nitrogen annealing at 400 °C induces the densely stacked nanosheet morphology with optimized lattice regularity, which can significantly improve the charge transport kinetics and the interfacial stability. Electrochemical evaluations reveal an outstanding initial discharge capacity of 1873.

Commercial lithium-ion batteries using organic solvent-based liquid electrolytes (LEs) face safety issues, including risks of fire and explosion. As a safer alternative, solid-state electrolytes are being extensively explored to replace these organic solvent-based LEs. Among various solid electrolyte options, polymer electrolytes offer advantages such as flexibility and ease of processing.

Designing heterostructure-based nanocomposites has gained considerable interest in solving energy scarcity and environmental contamination issues. Herein, a heterojunction assembly of ternary SnS/MoS/g-CN nanocomposites with varying Sn and Mo weight ratios was synthesized through a single-step hydrothermal method. At an optimized ratio of tin to molybdenum (1 : 2), denoted as SM-3, promising electrochemical and photocatalytic performances were observed compared to bare SnS/g-CN and MoS/g-CN.

The integration of Mn in NaMnFe(PO)PO (NMFPP) enhances the energy density but compromises the Na mobility and structural stability due to limited electron hopping and pronounced Jahn-Teller effects. To address this, a structurally compatible anionic substitution strategy is implemented by partially replacing PO with bulkier and less electronegative SiO groups. The reinforced cathode exhibits enhanced rate performance, which is attributed to lattice expansion induced by the larger SiO units, thereby facilitating Na diffusion and reducing impedance during charge-discharge processes, as supported by GITT and DRT analyses.
