Article Abstract
The trailing edge flap is an effective airfoil flow control technique having many forms, including the external airfoil flap (EAF) which lacks deep studies. In this paper, the calculated results of computational fluid dynamics are first verified through experiments, and the impact of the EAF parameters on the aerodynamic performance of the S809 airfoil is then studied. The obtained results show that the EAF can significantly improve the lift coefficient and stall angle of attack (AOA). Furthermore, the standard L(3) orthogonal range analysis is conducted, demonstrating the parameter impact ranking. More precisely, for the improvement of the lift coefficient, the order is normal distance > flap angle > tangential distance. For that of the lift-drag ratio, the order is flap angle > tangential distance > normal distance. For improving the stall and optimal AOA, the order is flap angle > normal distance > tangential distance. The results obtained in this study provide a basis for the blade design of rotating mechanism with EAF.

Rapid and scalable production of high-performance composites remains a key challenge in achieving sustainable manufacturing. Here, Exo-press frontal polymerization (EPFP), a novel and transformative method for manufacturing fiber-reinforced thermoset polymer composites, overcoming energy efficiency, scalability, and curing complex geometries, is introduced. Unlike conventional curing methods that require prolonged processing times and high energy, EPFP utilizes exothermic heat to reduce curing time from hours to minutes with minimal external energy.

Amplitude death has the potential to suppress unwanted oscillations in various engineering applications. However, in some engineering applications, such as dc microgrids, airfoil systems, and thermoacoustic systems, oscillation frequency is highly susceptible to external influences, leading to considerable variations. To maintain amplitude death amidst these frequency variations, we propose a design procedure that is robust against frequency variation for inducing amplitude death in delay-coupled oscillators.

Photocurrent in quantum materials is often collected at global contacts far away from the initial photoexcitation. This collection process is highly nonlocal. It involves an intricate spatial pattern of photocurrent flow (streamlines) away from its primary photoexcitation that depends sensitively on the configuration of current collecting contacts as well as the spatial nonuniformity and tensor structure of conductivity.

Electroadhesion has shown the potential to deliver versatile handling devices because of its simplicity of actuation and rapid response. Current electroadhesion systems have, however, significant difficulties in adapting to external objects with complex shapes. Here, a novel concept of metasurface is proposed by combining the use of natural fibers (flax) and shape memory epoxy polymers in a hygromorphic and thermally actuated composite (HyTemC).
