We investigate the properties of electronic states and optical transitions in hexagonal GaAs quantum dots within Al0.3Ga0.7As nanowires, grown in axial direction [111]. Such dots are particularly interesting due to their high degree of symmetry. A streamli ...
We present an ab initio study of the spin-resolved optical conductivity of two-dimensional (2D) group-VIB transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). We carry out fully relativistic density-functional-theory calculations combined with maximally localized Wann ...

Network Function Virtualization is allowing carriers to replace dedicated middleboxes with Network Functions (NFs) consolidated on shared servers, but the question of how (and even whether) one can achieve performance SLOs with software packet processing r ...
ObjectiveWall shear stress (WSS) and its derived spatiotemporal parameters have proven to play a major role on intracranial aneurysms (IAs) growth and rupture. This study aims to demonstrate how ultra-high field (UHF) 7 T phase contrast magnetic resonance ...
Design and deterministic spatial arrangement of nanoparticle (NP) clusters are core opportunities and challenges for nanotechnology. Particularly, building functional nanodevices with preset architecture requires to reconcile a high degree of NP organizati ...

Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) offer a high degree of stretchability along with biocompatibility, making them valuable for biomedical applications. However, in order to effectively control the desired strain response of the DEA, it is crucial to ide ...

Understanding the mechanical behaviour of compacted bentonite upon re-saturation is of outmost importance in most designs of nuclear waste disposal repositories. The behaviour of bentonite is characterized by its stress-path dependency and it is typically ...

In this research we study the berth allocation problem (BAP) in real time as disruptions occur. In practice, the actual arrival times and handling times of the vessels deviate from their expected or estimated values, which can disrupt the original berthing ...

Functional connectivity (FC) derived from resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) allows for the integrative study of neuronal processes at a macroscopic level. The majority of studies to date have assumed stationary interactions betw ...

We report on a first-principles and experimental study of precipitation in supersaturated solid solutions of Mg-rich Mg–Nd alloys. A cluster expansion Hamiltonian combined with Monte Carlo simulations was used to calculate a metastable HCP temperature-comp ...
