This thesis defines a general approach for the automated visual inspection of surfaces of luxury products, the aesthetic quality of which represents a corollary to the technical mastery necessary to manufacture valuable products. Within a manufacturing ent ...
We demonstrate the correspondence between charge transition levels of localized point defects in hybrid density functional theory and in G(0)W(0) many-body perturbation theory. To achieve this correspondence, it is necessary to properly combine the treatme ...
In this issue of Cell, Sparrow et al. propose a new mechanism for sporadically occurring congenital scoliosis in which Notch signaling and hypoxia converge in the embryo on somite patterning via the segmentation clock. This interaction between hypoxia and ...
Roebel cables are one possible option for use in the manufacture of high current conductors for various technical applications. In this work the behaviour of critical current under transverse loads up to 90 MPa was studied in coated conductor Roebel cables ...
The Notch signaling pathway is an important contributor to the development and homeostasis of the cardiovascular system. Not surprisingly, mutations in Notch receptors and ligands have been linked to a variety of hereditary diseases that impact both the he ...
Purpose: To report the clinical and genetic study of two families of Egyptian origin with clinical anophthalmia. To further determine the role of the retina and anterior neural fold homeobox gene (RAX) in anophthalmia and associated cerebral malformations. ...
For electronic transport at the nanoscale, coherent scattering at defects plays an important role. Therefore, the capability of visualizing the influence of defects on the conductivity of single atomic junctions may benefit the development of future nano-e ...
The regeneration of large bone defects caused by trauma or disease remains a significant clinical problem. Although osteoinductive growth factors such as bone morphogenetic proteins have entered clinics, transplantation of autologous bone remains the gold ...
Various schemes for correcting the finite-size supercell errors in the case of charged defect calculations are analyzed and their performance for a series of defect systems is compared. We focus on the schemes proposed by Makov and Payne (MP), Freysoldt, N ...
The paper presents a method to identify defects from fringe patterns. In the proposed method, the phase derivatives are computed from a fringe pattern using the two-dimensional Pseudo-Wigner–Ville distribution. Since the phase derivative varies rapidly in ...
