The city of Genova possesses an exceptional architectural ensemble, a street lined with palaces constructed between Mannerism and Baroque known as the Strada Nuova (presently via Garibaldi). The painter and ambassador Pierre Paul Rubens was so strongly imp ...
We consider Wave Maps with smooth compactly supported initial data of small (H) over dot (3/2)-norm from R3+1 to certain 2-dimensional Riemannian manifolds and show that they stay smooth globally in time. Our methods are based on the introduction of a glob ...
Low-cycle fatigue failure in titanium metal matrix composites is caused by two separate damage mechanisms: fatigue crack growth in the Ti matrix and fiber breakage. Here, a coupled numerical model for predicting both crack growth and fiber breakage is deve ...
An anisotropic structured fixed-bed divided into 2 reactor parts is a bundle reactor consisting of fiber-bundle. The fiber-bundle ordered in the flow direction are formed from filaments; the diam. of the fiber-bundle is smaller than its length and bigger t ...

Experience has shown that protein redesigns (using the backbone from a known protein structure) are far more likely to produce well-ordered, native-like structures than are true de novo designs. Therefore, to design a four-helix bundle made of identical sh ...
The effect of fibrin matrix micromorphology on neurite growth was investigated by measuring the length of neurites growing in three-dimensional fibrin gels with well characterized micromorphologies. Dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) from 7-day chick embryos were ...
The integration of increasingly complex functionalities within thermally drawn multi-material fibers is heralding a novel path towards advanced soft electronics and smart fabrics. Fibers capable of electronic, optoelectronic, piezoelectric or energy harv ...
Room temperature tensile tests are reported on two low-cost ceramic matrix composite materials, comprised of matrices of Blackglas(R) and a proprietory glass composition each reinforced with Nicalon(R) SiC-based fibers. The measured mechanical behaviors, s ...
In this paper a polarimetric fibre-optics current sensor in a new highly versatile all-fibre configuration is described. The optical configuration is particularly simple and is based on a back-and-forth propagation through a twisted sensing fibre. This res ...
Reflection, transmission and loss filters based on fiber Bragg gratings are key components in future wavelength division multiplexing telecommunication networks. A shift of the Bragg wavelength, λg, can be achieved by applying a strain or heating th ...
