A regenerative microchannel device for recording multiple single-unit action potentials in awake, ambulatory animals
Despite significant advances in robotics, commercially advanced prosthetics provide only a small fraction of the functionality of the amputated limb that they are meant to replace. Peripheral nerve interfacing could provide a rich controlling link between ...
Wiley-Blackwell2016Contextualized ranking of entity types based on knowledge graphs
Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Michele Catasta, Roman Prokofyev
A large fraction of online queries targets entities. For this reason, Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs) increasingly contain information about the searched entities such as pictures, short summaries, related entities, and factual information. A key facet ...
Elsevier Science Bv2016Mercury tissue residue approach in Chironomus riparius: Involvement of toxicokinetics and comparison of subcellular fractionation methods
Along with the growing body of evidence that total internal concentration is not a good indicator of toxicity, the Critical Body Residue (CBR) approach recently evolved into the Tissue Residue Approach (TRA) which considers the biologically active portion ...
Elsevier Science Bv2016Assessing the Hydro-Morphodynamic Response of a Beach Protected by Detached, Impermeable, Submerged Breakwaters: A Numerical Approach
Coastal areas host a large fraction of the world's population and are exposed to natural extreme events, which are a serious threat to human life, as well as to economies. For this reason, sea storms are increasingly the object of studies, and the design o ...
Coastal Education & Research Foundation2016Orientation Preference of Recrystallization in Supersaturated Aluminum Alloys Influenced by Concurrent Precipitation
The influence of concurrent precipitation on recrystallization is analyzed by comparing the nucleation and growth behavior of P ({011} 〈566〉), Cube ({001} 〈100〉), and 20 deg ND-rotated Cube ({001} 〈310〉, NDcube)-oriented grains in Al-xMn-Fe-Si (x = 0, 0.4, ...
Springer Verlag2016Planck intermediate results XXX. The angular power spectrum of polarized dust emission at intermediate and high Galactic latitudes
Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli
The polarized thermal emission from diffuse Galactic dust is the main foreground present in measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at frequencies above 100 GHz. In this paper we exploit the uniqueness of the Planck HFI po ...
EDP Sciences2016Analyzing blinking effects in super resolution localization microscopy with single-photon SPAD imagers
Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Ivan Michel Antolovic, Samuel Burri
For many scientific applications, electron multiplying charge coupled devices (EMCCDs) have been the sensor of choice because of their high quantum efficiency and built-in electron amplification. Lately, many researchers introduced scientific complementary ...
Spie-Int Soc Optical Engineering2016Advances in modeling of lower hybrid current drive
First principle modeling of the lower hybrid (LH) current drive in tokamak plasmas is a longstanding activity, which is gradually gaining in accuracy thanks to quantitative comparisons with experimental observations. The ability to reproduce simulatenously ...
Iop Publishing Ltd2016Recherche de fragments de plastique dans les sédiments benthiques du Léman
Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Florian Faure
A growing number of studies focusing on microplastics (plastic particles smaller than 5 mm) show this issue affects all environmental matrices and compartments, and suspicions grow as to their toxicity. In this context, the Commission Internationale pour l ...
