Objects entering water, characterized by brief and high-peak impact forces, have been extensively investigated in scientific research. However, the specific water entry process during docking downstream of the launching ship lift chamber involves T-shaped beams entering the water at a constant velocity with a deadrise angle of zero degrees. The hydrodynamic load mechanisms during this process remain not well understood.

This review article mainly delves into the comprehensive development, thermal stabilization, characteristics, and applications of Blue Phase III (BPIII) derived from non-calamitic, mainly T-shaped and bent-core liquid crystals (BCLC). The discussion begins with discovering and characterizing various liquid crystal (LC) phases of BCLCs, emphasizing the significance of the nematic (N) phase in three and four-ring BCLCs. Following this, the focus shifts to the stabilization, properties, and potential applications of BPIII, particularly those derived from non-conventional (T-shaped and BCLCs) liquid crystals.

We present the design, synthesis, and evaluation of novel metal-free photosensitizers based on D-π-A structures featuring tri-arylamine as an electron donor, cyanoacrylic acid as an anchoring group, and substituted derivative π-bridges including 9,9-dimethyl-9H-fluorene, benzo[]thiophene, or naphtho [1,2-:4,3-']dithiophene. The aim of the current research is to unravel the relationship between chemical structure and photovoltaic performance in solar cell applications by investigating the properties of these organic sensitizers. The newly developed photosensitizers displayed variations in HOMO-LUMO energy gaps and photovoltaic performances due to their distinct π-bridge structures and exhibited diverse spectral responses ranging from 343 to 490 nm.

In this work, three different twist angles of a micro helical insert in a T-shaped are studied numerically in order to evaluate the laminar steady flow behavior of Newtonian fluid in chaotic geometry. In the geometries under consideration, thermal mixing behavior is carried out using fluids having two distinct input temperatures. Under the influence of chaotic advection and low rates of Reynolds number, the second law of thermodynamics is controlled in terms of the entropy generation caused by hydrodynamic and thermal processes.

The elucidation of protein-membrane interactions is pivotal for comprehending the mechanisms underlying diverse biological phenomena and membrane-related diseases. In this investigation, vacuum-ultraviolet circular dichroism (VUVCD) spectroscopy, utilizing synchrotron radiation (SR), was employed to dynamically observe membrane interaction processes involving water-soluble proteins at the secondary-structure level. The study utilized a time-resolved (TR) T-shaped microfluidic cell, facilitating the rapid and efficient mixing of protein and membrane solutions.
