Nucleation and Growth of Nanoparticles Bandyopadhyay, Sulalit; Uçar, Şeniz (wiley, 2026-01-01) This chapter explores the crystallization-driven synthesis of nanoparticles, emphasizing the critical roles of thermodynamics and kinetics in determining crystal size, size distribution, and morphology. Crystallization is ...
Growth evolution in calcium carbonate microparticles involving mixed vaterite-aragonite structures Younas, Daniyal; Sidler, Elizaveta; Anchieta, Chayene G.; Uçar, Şeniz; Vullum, Per Erik; Mathiesen, Ragnvald H.; Zontone, Federico; Cabriolu, Raffaela; Chushkin, Yuriy; Breiby, Dag Werner; Chattopadhyay, Basab (2026-01-01) Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is a widely occurring mineral that is crucial to many natural and synthetic processes. CaCO3 crystallizes in three anhydrous polymorphs and often serves as a model system to study nucleation and g...
Transfer learning and parameter-efficient fine-tuning for heating energy consumption prediction using urban building energy models (UBEM) Canli Akyol, Ilkim; Karadag, Yusuf Meric; Uçar, Şeniz; Talaz, Ismail; Gursoy, Fatma Ece; Gürsel Dino, İpek; KALKAN, SİNAN (2025-11-01) To estimate the energy demand of buildings on a neighborhood scale, physics-based Urban Building Energy Modeling (UBEM) has emerged as a reliable method. UBEM simulations can also be used to develop training datasets for m...
Flue gas induced lithium carbonate crystallization from industrial black mass Joshi, Bhaskar; Uçar, Şeniz; Knuutila, Hanna Katariina; Svendsen, Hallvard Fjøsne; Andreassen, Jens-Petter; Bandyopadhyay, Sulalit (2025-09-15) Spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are a valuable secondary source of lithium, but conventional recovery methods using sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) often result in sodium contamination, limiting the purity of recovered lithiu...
3D nanoscopy of calcite microparticles precipitated in the presence of fetuin-A Younas, Daniyal; Gülmez, Özgür; Uçar, Şeniz; Hageberg, Ingvild U.; Zontone, Federico; Roddatis, Vladimir; Schreiber, Anja; Breiby, Dag Werner; Chushkin, Yuriy; Chattopadhyay, Basab (2025-08-01) Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is ubiquitous due to its presence in several biomineralized entities, and it often serves as a model system to study crystal nucleation and growth. CaCO3 exists in three crystalline polymorphs, na...
Optimizing lithium carbonate recovery through gas-liquid reactive crystallization of lithium hydroxide and carbon dioxide Joshi, Bhaskar; Uçar, Şeniz; Knuutila, Hanna Katariina; Svendsen, Hallvard Fjøsne; Andreassen, Jens-Petter; Bandyopadhyay, Sulalit (2025-07-01) Reactive crystallization of Li2CO3 in a semi-batch reactor using carbon dioxide (CO2) has been studied in the literature with an aim to enhance recovery of lithium from primary and secondary resources. However, an in-depth...
Exploiting Saturation Regimes and Surface Effects to Tune Composite Design: Single Platelet Nanocomposites of Peptoid Nanosheets and CaCO3 Uçar, Şeniz; Nielsen, Anne R.; Mojsoska, Biljana; Dideriksen, Knud; Andreassen, Jens-Petter; Zuckermann, Ronald N.; Sand, Karina K. (2024-01-01) Mineral-polymer composites found in nature exhibit exceptional structural properties essential to their function, and transferring these attributes to the synthetic design of functional materials holds promise across vario...
Predicting Silica Deposition from Superheated, Pressurized Steam Using Numerical Modeling of Nucleation, Agglomeration and Deposition Bordvik, Silje; van Erp, Titus S.; Uçar, Şeniz; Næss, Erling (2023-10-01) A model that can be used to quantify silica deposition from superheated depressurized steam is developed. Classical nucleation theory, agglomeration and deposition onto a wall are combined in a numerical model that calcula...
Formation of Calcium Phosphate Minerals in the Presence of Fetuin-A Uçar, Şeniz (2022-09-29) Mineral formation is regulated by molecular based promoters or inhibitors in biological systems. Among serum proteins, fetuin-A can effectively inhibit unwanted calcification in vivo via forming fetuin-mineral complexes ca...
Crystal Growth Uçar, Şeniz; Andreassen, Jens-Petter (McGraw Hill Higher Education, 2019-06-01)
