Electron Energy-Loss Spectroscopy of Coupled Plasmonic Systems: Beyond the Standard Electron Perspective

Jürgen Brugger, Olivier Martin, Jérémy Butet, Valentin Flauraud, Gabriel David Bernasconi

Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) has become an experimental method of choice for the investigation of localized surface plasmon resonances, allowing the simultaneous mapping of the associated field distributions and their resonant energies with a n ...

Functional Soft Robotic Actuators Based on Dielectric Elastomers

Jun Shintake

Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) are a promising soft actuator technology for robotics. Adding robotic functionalities--folding, variable stiffness, and adhesion--into their actuator design is a novel method to create functionalized robots with simpli ...

Measurement of the dynamics in ski jumping using a wearable inertial sensor-based system

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens

Dynamics is a central aspect of ski jumping, particularly during take-off and stable flight. Currently, measurement systems able to measure ski jumping dynamics (e.g., 3D cameras, force plates) are complex and only available in few research centres worldwi ...

Marangoni induced force on a drop in a Hele Shaw cell

François Gallaire, Philippe Meliga

We analyse the force balance on a cylindrical drop in a Hele-Shaw cell, subjected to a Marangoni flow caused by a surface tension gradient. Depth-averaged Stokes equations, called Brinkman equations, are introduced and a general closed form solution is obt ...

Effects of Positive versus Negative Yaw Angles on Wind-Turbine Performance: An Application of BEM Theory

Fernando Porté Agel, Majid Bastankhah

Wind-turbine wakes have negative effects on wind-farm performance. They are associated with: (a) the velocity deficit, which reduces the generated power of downwind turbines; and (b) the turbulence level, which increases the fatigue loads on downwind turbi ...

Dependence of the most probable and average bond rupture force on the force loading rate: First order correction to the Bell-Evans model

Giovanni Dietler, Fabrizio Benedetti

The Bell-Evans model which predicts the linear dependence of the most probable intermolecular bond rupture force on the logarithm of stretching force loading rate is usually used to discuss the dynamic force spectroscopy experiment data. This model is cons ...

Phonon gap and localization lengths in floppy materials

Matthieu Wyart

Gels of semi-flexible polymers, network glasses made of low valence elements, softly compressed ellipsoid particles and dense suspensions under flow are examples of floppy materials. These systems present collective motions with almost no restoring force. ...

Screening of the factors influencing frictional interactions between a cylindrical tip and the cardiac wall using factorial analysis

Hannes Bleuler, Giulio Rognini, Lionel Flaction, Bandar Muntazar Hakim

Knowledge of frictional forces acting on the tips of minimally invasive medical devices is important in the design and simulation of such devices. Moreover, several studies have shown that uncontrolled frictional forces can induce damage to organs. The goa ...
