We investigate the collective dynamics of self-propelled droplets, confined in a one-dimensional microfluidic channel. On the one hand, neighboring droplets align and form large trains of droplets moving in the same direction. On the other hand, the drople ...
The objective of this study is to integrate biomimetic robots into small groups of zebrafish and to modulate their collective behaviours. A possible approach is to have the robots behave like sheepdogs. In this case, the robots would behave like a differen ...
The integrated network Mott Physics Beyond the Heisenberg Model (MPBH) united researchers across Switzerland in a collective effort to explore new aspects of Mott physics, in particular how spin-orbit interactions, in concert with strong electron correlati ...
In this paper, we will argue that the structure of the spatio-temporal pedagogical set-up and the elaboration of an evolutionary support for operations of cognition and imagination are powerful in transforming learning cultures. We develop this argument in ...
Natural human interactions for Mixed Reality Applications are overwhelmingly multimodal: humans communicate intent and instructions via a combination of visual, aural and gestural cues. However, supporting low-latency and accurate comprehension of such mul ...
