Hemodynamics of ageing, ventricular-arterial coupling and noninvasive assessment of key hemodynamical and cardiac quantities

Ageing is a natural process that affects both the anatomical and functional properties of the cardiovascular system and alters the coupling characteristics between the heart and the aorta. These alterations may predispose the cardiovascular system in the d ...

Acute effects of transcatheter aortic valve replacement on the ventricular-aortic interaction

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Vasiliki Bikia, Stamatia Zoi Pagoulatou

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly used to treat severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients. However, little is known regarding the direct effect of TAVR on the ventricular-aortic interaction. In the present study, we aimed to investig ...

Structural Disorder and Magnetic Order in Atomically Thin Crystals

Michele Pizzochero

This Thesis is mainly devoted to the exploration of the structural disorder and magnetic order in two-dimensional crystals by means of first-principles methodologies. Firstly, we present a comparative study of defect formation in the semiconducting 2H and ...

Influence of local surface defects on the minority-carrier lifetime of passivating-contact solar cells

Christophe Ballif, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Jan Haschke, Jean Cattin

Unlocking the full potential of passivating contacts, increasingly popular in the silicon solar cell industry, requires determining the minority carrier lifetime. Minor passivation drops limit the functioning of solar cells; however, they are not detected ...

Compositional and Interface Engineering of Organic-Inorganic Lead Halide Perovskite Solar Cells

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Haizhou Lu, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Anurag Krishna

Power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has remarkably been increased from3.1%to 25.2%. The fast expansion of the PSCs has been along with the development of compositional and interface engineering, which has been playing a c ...

Rapid Elastic Contact: Image Processing and the Virtual Frame Technique (VFT)

Siqi Zheng

A central air bubble is observed to be maintained during the process of an elastic hemi-sphere impacting on a smooth rigid surface. The similar phenomenon has been found in droplet impact in other studies. The effect of air gap between the two solids has b ...

Vertical Ionization Energies and Electron Affinities of Native and Damaged DNA Bases, Nucleotides, and Pairs from Density Functional Theory Calculations: Model Assessment and Implications for DNA Damage Recognition and Repair

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Polydefkis Diamantis

To assess the effect of an 8-oxoguanine (8OG) defect base on the vertical ionization energies (VIEs) and electron affinities (VEAs) of DNA, density functional theory calculations were carried out for native and defect DNA bases and nucleotides, as well as ...

Spinning operators and defects in conformal field theory

Marco Meineri

We study the kinematics of correlation functions of local and extended operators in a conformal field theory. We present a new method for constructing the tensor structures associated to primary operators in an arbitrary bosonic representation of the Loren ...

Increasing N content in GaNAsP nanowires suppresses the impact of polytypism on luminescence

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Luca Francaviglia

Cathodoluminescence (CL) and micro-photoluminescence spectroscopies are employed to investigate effects of structural defects on carrier recombination in GaNAsP nanowires (NWs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy on Si substrates. In the NWs with a low N conte ...
