Basal entrainment by Newtonian gravity-driven flows

Christophe Ancey, Nicolas Andreini, Belinda Margaret Bates

Gravity-driven flows can erode the bed along which they descend and increase their mass by a factor of 10 or more. This process is called "basal entrainment." Although documented by field observations and laboratory experiments, it remains poorly understoo ...

High-throughput computational screening of nanoporous adsorbents for CO2 capture from natural gas

Berend Smit

With the growth of natural gas as an energy source, upgrading CO2-contaminated supplies has become increasingly important. Here we develop a single metric that captures how well an adsorbent performs the separation of CH4 and CO2, and we then use this metr ...
