Multiple mechanisms for extremely large magnetoresistance (XMR) found in many topologically nontrivial/trivial semimetals have been theoretically proposed, but experimentally it is unclear which mechanism is responsible in a particular sample. In this pape ...
Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) are interesting soft actuators compared to other actuation technologies owing to large achievable actuation strains, high energy density and fast actuation. However, because DEAs need to be operated under high electric ...
The growing research on two-dimensional materials reveals their exceptional physical properties and enormous potential for future applications and investigation of advanced physics phenomena. They represent the ultimate limit in terms of active channel thi ...
Author summary Computer-based numerical simulations of the heart are increasingly assuming a recognized role in the context of computational medicine and cardiology. They are based on mathematical models describing the different physical phenomena occurrin ...
This thesis aims to improve the current situation in the Duge pumped-storage hydropower plant in Norway. In the Duge power plant, which has an installed capacity of 200 MW, the rotor of one of the two Francis reversible pump-turbines (Unit 1) experiences e ...
We present a new technique for the design and test of coaxial switched oscillators (SWOs). In this paper (Part I of a two-part paper), we concentrate on the electrostatic design of coaxial SWOs. We introduce a new design for the electrodes, which have been ...

The electric potential, electric field, and charge density of a monolayer of MoS2 have been quantitatively measured at atomic-scale resolution. This has been performed by off-axis electron holography using a double aberration-corrected transmission electro ...
An asymmetry in the number density of left- and right-handed fermions is known to give rise to a new term in the induction equation that can result in a dynamo instability. At high temperatures, when a chiral asymmetry can survive for long enough, this chi ...
to follow up patients who inject themselves insulin with injection pen is a quite complex task. Due to the repetition of injections, and the numerous influent parameter the patient can easily made an injection mistake and it is difficult for health-takers ...
Jamming of granular media has been shown to possess the property of stiffness variation, transitioning from a soft to a quasi-solid state depending on the packing density of the granules. Recently, a gradual stiffness change for bending has been reported b ...
