In this paper (doi.org/10.1063/5.0229006), PhD student Yu Chen used a rotating drum and two-phase flow model to test granular rheological behaviour under submerged conditions. Jointly with @SsXjtu @DehengW Mingrui and Haiyi. Congrats to Yu on his first paper; more is on the way.

For storing large quantities (~Gt) of green hydrogen underground, can we directly transfer our knowledge on geological carbon storage? This review addresses this question. Joint efforts @Eng_IT_Sydney @SydneyNano @ZJU_China and @UofGlasgow, @SydneyUniWorld doi.org/10.1016/j.mtsust.202…

Finished my 4-week intensive teaching session on Statics. Great student participation for the return to campus mode. Bonus question: Spot my teaching assistant.

Packing is critical to behaviors of a particle assembly. Adjustable properties can be realized by mixing particles of different sizes. So to what extent can we control packing? Is it possible for a binary-sized packing to be looser than a mono-sized one? sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Sure, we are coming back to campus to teach, yet the university staff car parking spots will be reduced, addressing UN sustainability goals ... BTW, students are welcome to drive to campus, for accessibility.
