China has unveiled the world's most advanced hypergravity machine, the Centrifugal Hypergravity and Interdisciplinary Experiment Facility (CHIEF), located in Hangzhou. With a capacity of 1900 g-t, this groundbreaking facility surpasses its global counterparts and promises to revolutionize scientific research. CHIEF features three hypergravity centrifuges and six experimental chambers dedicated to fields such as seismic geotechnics, deep-sea engineering, and slope stability. These chambers simulate extreme physical conditions, enabling researchers to solve complex engineering problems and develop innovative energy solutions. One promising application is the study of natural gas hydrates, or "combustible ice," a potential clean energy source. CHIEF's experiments aim to refine extraction techniques, reducing environmental risks. Developed by Zhejiang University and funded by China’s 13th Five-Year Plan, CHIEF is a $276.5 million investment in cutting-edge science.

Located underground at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory 🏔 (LNGS) in central Italy, CUORE (Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events) is one of the leading seismic measurement experiments in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay 〄, implementing the low-temperature calorimetric technology 💠. This research article presents a novel multi-device analysis to correlate meteo-oceanographical phenomena ⛈️ 🌊 with low-frequency noise on seismic data from low-temperature calorimeters 🌡️🧊. Indeed, the CUORE detectors indicate that cryogenic detectors are sensitive to intense vibrations generated by earthquakes 🫨 and the much fainter meteo-oceanographical vibrations induced by sea waves in the Mediterranean Sea. This proves that cryogenic macro-calorimeters are sensitive to such environmental noise sources and opens the possibility of studying their impact on the detectors’ physics-case sensitivity. Moreover, this study could pave the road for dedicated technological developments to mitigate the noise induced by marine microseisms 📈📉, from which the entire community of cryogenic calorimeters can benefit. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dNEFwbyU

China has officially launched the world's most advanced hypergravity research facility, known as the Centrifugal Hypergravity and Interdisciplinary Experiment Facility (CHIEF), located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province. This state-of-the-art system features three hypergravity centrifuges and 18 onboard experimental units, capable of generating forces up to 1,900 times Earth’s gravity (1,900 g). These capabilities surpass existing facilities, including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' hypergravity system, which maxes out at 1200 g. Once fully operational, CHIEF is expected to serve as a multidisciplinary research platform, addressing complex engineering and scientific challenges across various fields, such as material science, geological processes, and deep-sea exploration. The CHIEF facility represents a major leap forward in hypergravity research, with its first centrifuge engine already installed and construction on additional units underway. Approved in 2018 and spearheaded by Zhejiang University, the project aims to provide a cutting-edge experimental platform for both academic and applied research. Its six specialised chambers will allow scientists to study diverse phenomena, from earthquake-resistant infrastructure to the extraction of clean energy resources like natural gas hydrates found in seabeds. By creating extreme physical conditions, CHIEF will enable researchers to simulate real-world scenarios that are otherwise difficult to replicate, thereby advancing technological innovation and scientific understanding. #china #engineering #gravity #science #chief https://lnkd.in/eJ9Er79X

🔬 Delighted to announce the publication of our latest academic work in Ocean Engineering Elsevier! 🔬 🎉 Our research explores the flow characteristics around a complex jacket-type foundation structure when subjected to steady current. The investigation is conducted through physical experiments and numerical simulations. The findings demonstrate a complex location-dependent flow pattern. Over the height of the jacket, the acceleration of flow and the vortex systems alter as the jacket narrows and distances between structural element change.
