AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Side weirs are widely used to control flow processes along a channel or river. The lateral loss of water reduces the sediment transport capacity in the main-channel leading to local sediment deposition near the overflow. The design discharge to be diverted ...
Molecular dynamics simulations are reported for the pullout force and interfacial friction of single-and multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNT) with interwall sp(3) bonds embedded in a diamond matrix. The van der Waals interaction and sp(3) bonding are shown to ...
This experimental programme employs length-scale analysis of measured profiles to quantitatively discriminate the surface textures of stone flakes manufactured from East Anglian chalk flint used on four contact materials (shell, wood, dry hide and soaked a ...
(001)-textured AlN thin films as needed for bulk acoustic wave devices exhibit large mechanical stress variations as a function of growth substrate properties. We studied the relationship between stress and the surface morphology of a thermally oxidized si ...
Surface plasmon-polaritons (SPPs) – electromagnetic waves propagating on the boundary between a metal and a dielectric and tightly bound to the interface – have been known for years. Recent progresses in microfabrication methods, near-field characterizatio ...
Size-dependent plastic flow behavior is manifested in nanoindentation, microbending, and pillar-compression experiments and plays a key role in the contact mechanics and friction of rough surfaces. Recent experiments using a hard flat plate to compress sin ...
This paper describes F-based dry etching and resulting surface properties of biocompatible silicone elastomer. The etch rate of polysiloxane and surface morphology was found to be highly temperature dependent. An increase in temperature results in a signif ...
(001)-textured AIN thin films as needed for longitudinal bulk acoustic wave (BAW) devices exhibit large mechanical stress variations and large orientation variation as a function of growth substrate properties. We prepared thin silicon and silicon dioxide ...

GaN epilayers are grown on (111) oriented single crystal diamond substrate by ammonia-source molecular beam epitaxy. Each step of the growth is monitored in situ by reflection high energy electron diffraction. It is found that a two-dimensional epitaxial w ...
Bio-inspired climbing robots relying on adhesion systems are believed to become essential tools for several industrial applications in the near future. In recent years, research has mainly focused on modeling micro-scale adhesion phenomena; a macro-scale a ...
