Mission oriented R and D and the advancement of technology: The impact of NASA contributions, volume 2
NASA contributions to the advancement of major developments in twelve selected fields of technology are presented. The twelve fields of technology discussed are: (1) cryogenics, (2) electrochemical energy conversion and storage, (3) high-temperature ceramics, (4) high-temperature metals (5) integrated circuits, (6) internal gas dynamics (7) materials machining and forming, (8) materials joining, (9) microwave systems, (10) nondestructive testing, (11) simulation, and (12) telemetry. These field were selected on the basis of both NASA and nonaerospace interest and activity

Controlling mass and energy diffusion with metamaterials
Diffusion driven by temperature or concentration gradients is a fundamental
mechanism of energy and mass transport, which inherently differs from wave
propagation in both physical foundations and application prospects. Compared
with conventional schemes, metamaterials provide an unprecedented potential for
governing diffusion processes, based on emerging theories like the
transformation and the scattering cancellation theory, which enormously
expanded the original concepts and suggest innovative metamaterial-based
devices. We hereby use the term ``diffusionics'' to generalize these remarkable
achievements in various energy (e.g., heat) and mass (e.g., particles and
plasmas) diffusion systems. For clarity, we categorize the numerous studies
appeared during the last decade by diffusion field (i.e., heat, particles, and
plasmas) and discuss them from three different perspectives: the theoretical
perspective, to detail how the transformation principle is applied to each
diffusion field; the application perspective, to introduce various intriguing
metamaterial-based devices, such as cloaks and radiative coolers; and the
physics perspective, to connect with concepts of recent concern, such as
non-Hermitian topology, nonreciprocal transport, and spatiotemporal modulation.
We also discuss the possibility of controlling diffusion processes beyond
metamaterials. Finally, we point out several future directions for diffusion
metamaterial research, including the integration with artificial intelligence
and topology concepts.Comment: This review article has been accepted for publication in Rev. Mod.
