Micro/nano robots have the potential to revolutionize many aspects of medicine. These untethered, wirelessly controlled and powered devices will make existing therapeutic and diagnostic procedures less invasive and will enable new procedures never before p ...
The formation of extended two-dimensional metal organic coordination networks (2D-MOCNs) showing high adaptability to surface step edges and structural defects is revealed by scanning tunneling microscopy. Rod-like 4,4'-di-(1,4-buta-1,3-diynyl)-benzoic aci ...
Shedding of droplets in a flow focusing junction is standard technique in two-phase microfluidics. This break-up is driven by a capillary instability. Here we present a depth-averaged approach to simulate these complex phenomena. Since the physical mechani ...
When viewed as an elementary particle, the electron has spin and charge. When binding to the atomic nucleus, it also acquires an angular momentum quantum number corresponding to the quantized atomic orbital it occupies. Even if electrons in solids form ban ...
The influence of firms on the elaboration of climate policy in a democratic system is quite controversial. Firms do not form a solid bloc of opponents to environmental regulation. Some firms even expect to gain from such regulation, either because they off ...
Micro-optics describes a family of elements and systems fabricated by modern micromachining. Optical structures with nearly arbitrary shapes and dimensions down to the nanometer can be realized offering a large degree of freedom for the design. The progres ...
Performing manipulation tasks interactively in real environments requires a high degree of accuracy and stability. At the same time, when one cannot assume a fully deterministic and static environment, one must endow the robot with the ability to react rap ...
The presented reciprocal frame structure is a modular composition of timber folded panels. The overall geometry is driven from a folded plate base module which is then spartially multiplied in using Euclidean isometries. The intersection of consecutive mod ...
Critical infrastructures are receiving a great deal of attention, due, on the one hand, to the major malfunctions to which they are subject and their potential as targets of malicious intent on the other. Economic and political impacts are studied; increas ...
Over the last two decades, urban planning has been reapplied in several European countries: common tendencies that underline the reform of planning procedures are the generalization of sustainable development and the reorganization of local government. Bri ...
