Semiconductor materials have given rise to today's digital technology and consumer electronics. Widespread adoption is closely linked to the ability to process and integrate them in devices at scale. Where flexibility and large surfaces are required, such ...
Agent-based simulations have been widely applied in many disciplines, by scientists and engineers alike. Scientists use agent-based simulations to tackle global problems, including alleviating poverty, reducing violence, and predicting the impact of pandem ...
High-Temperature Superconductors (HTS) can be superconducting in liquid nitrogen 77 K, holding immense promises for our future. They can enable disruptive technologies such as nuclear fusion, lossless power transmission, cancer treatment devices, and techn ...
Silicon transistor scaling is approaching its end and a transition to novel materials and device concepts is more than ever essential. High-mobility compound semiconductors are considered promising candidates to replace silicon, targeting low-power logic a ...
A detailed knowledge of the resistivity of high-temperature superconductors in the overcritical current regime is important to achieve reliable numerical simulations of applications such as superconducting fault current limiters. We have previously shown t ...
Adhesive pads are commonly used in both natural and engineering systems. A recent study [Cohen et al. Soft Matter 2018] has shown that the failure of finite pads, subjected to loading parallel to the substrate, can be triggered by different mechanisms; int ...
Numerous conductor designs for pulsed magnets based on High Temperature Superconductors (HTS), featuring stacks of tapes are currently being proposed. A major contribution to the AC losses is expected to be given by hysteresis losses. Several numerical mod ...
The development of an aircraft industrial system is a complex process which faces the challenge of digital discontinuity in multidisciplinary engineering due to various interfaces between different digital tools, leading to extra development time and costs ...
We present here a novel approach to fabricate nanoporous membranes based on the use of sacrificial template structures to individually define pore parameters such as geometry, shape, and placement. Based on this rationale two different nano-fabrication met ...
Le secteur des bâtiments occupe une part très importante de la consommation totale d’énergie finale en Suisse, soit environ 40% et est également la cause de 24% des émissions de gaz à effet de serre. C’est pour cette raison que ce secteur revêt une importa ...
