In this paper, we introduce a novel sensor scheme which merges nano-photonics and nano-fluidics on a single platform through the use of free-standing photonic crystals (PhCs). PhCs offer great freedom to manipulate the spatial extent and the spectral chara ...
We introduce a novel sensor scheme combining nano-photonics and nano-fluidics on a single platform through the use of free-standing photonic crystals. By harnessing nano-scale openings, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrate that both fluidics and ...
Recent years have seen an increasing interest in the late-afternoon transition between the convective and stable regimes of the atmospheric boundary layer. There are several differences between the two regimes. On one hand, the convective boundary layer is ...
During the dry season of the year 2002, convective cooling triggered the formation of a double-diffusive regime of the convective type below the chemocline at 52m depth in Lake Nyos. Since then, the vertical extent of the double-diffusive staircase has con ...

[1] Convection in an ice-covered lake, driven by the absorption of solar radiation, is investigated by means of temperature microstructure technique. This type of convection typically occurs in spring, when melting snow on the ice cover enables solar radia ...
The text is focused on formulation, analysis, and computational procedures for reduced basis approximation and a posteriori error estimation for parametrized PDEs in the real-time and many-query contexts. The book also serves as background and (certain spe ...

This work focuses on the approximation of parametric steady Navier-- Stokes equations by the reduced basis method. For a particular instance of the parameters under consideration, we are able to solve the underlying partial differential equations, compute ...
Epitaxial Laser Metal Forming (E-LMF) consists in impinging a jet of metallic powder onto a molten pool formed by controlled laser heating and thereby, generating epitaxially a single crystal deposit onto the damaged component. This new technique aims to b ...
[1] Convection due to surface cooling has been investigated in the surface boundary layer of a small lake under near-ideal conditions undisturbed by wind, large-scale currents, and differential cooling. Successive temperature microstructure profiles reveal ...
