The response to strain in covalently bound single layers has a large impact on the growth and properties. We investigate the quasi-two-dimensional hexagonal boron nitride on Rh(111), which is interesting due to its high intrinsic corrugation. We use combin ...
The present invention related to an optical force sensing element for microsurgical instruments (22), for measuring force F in three orthogonal directions x, y, z, comprising a monolithic cylinder structure (1), a cylindrical surface (4) and a top surface ...
The Bell-Evans model which predicts the linear dependence of the most probable intermolecular bond rupture force on the logarithm of stretching force loading rate is usually used to discuss the dynamic force spectroscopy experiment data. This model is cons ...
We introduce a new ab initio derived reactive potential for the simulation of CdTe within density functional theory (DFT) and apply it to calculate both static and dynamical properties of a number of systems (bulk solid, defective structures, liquid, surfa ...
In rivers riparian vegetation can have not only strong interaction with the flow but also with the ecological services of the aquatic system. In wetlands and along riverbanks often tree-like vegetation with quite stiff trunks can be found. The study of the ...
Polarity establishment, asymmetric division, and acquisition of cell fates are critical steps during earlydevelopment. In this review, we discuss processes that set up the embryonic axes, with an emphasis onpolarity establishment and asymmetric division. W ...
We revisit the classic problem of an elastic solid with a two-dimensional wavy surface squeezed against an elastic flat half-space from infinitesimal to full contact. Through extensive numerical calculations and analytic derivations, we discover previously ...
Manipulation and transport of microscale objects in 3D with high spatiotemporal resolution require precise control over the applied forces. We report a strategy that uses specially engineered microbars having engagement points and multiple helical microcar ...
In order to mimic the complex architecture of many bio-materials and synthesize composites characterized by continuously graded composition and mechanical properties, an innovative synthetic strategy making use of magnetic field gradients and based on the ...
In unreinforced masonry (URM) structures vertical walls are connected by horizontal spandrel elements. Spandrels have been subjected to extensive damage during earthquakes and are often the first elements within a URM building to crack or fail. If URM buil ...
