We present a comprehensive study about the relationship between the way detailed balance is broken in non-equilibrium systems and the resulting violations of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. Starting from stochastic dynamics with both odd and even vari ...
The low-power sensing platform proposed by the Convergence project is foreseen as a wireless, low-power and multifunctional wearable system empowered by energy-efficient technologies. This will allow meeting the strict demands of life-style and healthcare ...
In this article we study the so-called water tank system. In this system, the behavior of water contained in a 1-D tank is modelled by Saint-Venant equations, with a scalar distributed control. It is well-known that the linearized systems around uniform st ...
Oxygen (O2) molecule is of paramount importance in nature, and it takes part in several biological and chemical activities such as energy generation, cellular respiration, and food deterioration, to name a few. Detection of O2 concentration is of extreme i ...
As the volume of produced data is exponentially increasing, companies tend to rely on distributed systems to meet the surging demand for storage capacity. With the business workflows becoming more and more complex, such systems often consist of or are acce ...
Presented herein are systems and methods for measuring sweat rate of a subject using a wearable system. A sweat rate may be determined automatically based on one or more signals produced by a wetting sensor module in response to a presence of sweat in the ...
Meaningful energy analysis of industrial processes requires the installation of energy monitoring systems. However, a lack of systematic methods for identifying the required measurement points, joint to scarce information on the related benefits, results i ...
Understanding memory requires an explanation for how information can be stored in the brain in a stable state. The change in the brain that accounts for a given memory is referred to as an engram. In recent years, the term engram has been operationalized a ...
We address the intrinsic polarization and screening of an external electric field in a broad range of ordered and twisted configurations of multilayer graphene, using an ab initio approach combining density functional theory and the Wannier function formal ...
Modern patent systems are slow, inefficient, expensive, and may result in outcomes that actively harm technological progress. This paper proposes a substantive re-think of these systems and lays a foundation upon which practical solutions can be built. Man ...
