Parametric study of URBAN morphology on building solar energy potential in Singapore context

In 2014, the Singapore government announced plans to increase the adoption of solar power, including by integrating solar PV systems into the urban environment. Careful planning of a neighbourhood at early design stage, which determines the overall urban m ...

Bayesian Monte Carlo assimilation for the PETALE experimental programme using inter-dosimeter correlation

Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Dimitri Rochman, Axel Guy Marie Laureau

This article presents the methodology developed to generate and use dosimeter covariances and to estimate nuisance parameters for the PETALE experimental programme. In anticipation of the final experimental results, this work investigates the consideration ...

When illusions merge

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Gregory Francis

We recently found only weak correlations between the susceptibility to various visual illusions. However, we observed strong correlations among different variants of an illusion, suggesting that the visual space of illusions includes several illusion-speci ...

Force microscopy of the Caenorhabditis elegans embryonic eggshell

Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Roger Philippe Krenger

Assays focusing on emerging biological phenomena in an animal's life can be performed during embryogenesis. While the embryo of Caenorhabditis elegans has been extensively studied, its biomechanical properties are largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that ...

Distributed optical fiber sensing based on frequency-scanned phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry

Li Zhang

Unlike traditional sensing schemes which rely on discrete point sensors that perform measurements at predetermined positions, distributed optical fiber sensing is a general technique that enables to continuously gather information (typically temperature an ...

Experimental And Theoretical Insight Into Formulations Based On Poly(Vinyl Alcohol Boric Acid) And Diclofenac Sodium Salt

Maria-Alexandra Paun

A series of three formulations were prepared in view of experimental and theoretical investigation of their drug release potential. The morphology of the film formulations, in terms of distribution of drug into the polymeric matrix and the nature of the dr ...

Unravelling chloride transport/microstructure relationships for blended-cement pastes with the mini-migration method

Karen Scrivener, Fabien Jacques Michel Georget, William Wilson

A chloride mini-migration method is proposed to estimate effective diffusion coefficients at the scale of the cement paste and to investigate mechanisms with complementary microstructure analyses on the same material. Blended-cement pastes with a wide rang ...

Euclid: Reconstruction of weak-lensing mass maps for non-Gaussianity studies

Georges Meylan, Yi Wang, Richard Massey

Weak lensing, which is the deflection of light by matter along the line of sight, has proven to be an efficient method for constraining models of structure formation and reveal the nature of dark energy. So far, most weak-lensing studies have focused on th ...

Oligomerization Profile of Human Transthyretin Variants with Distinct Amyloidogenicity

Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

One of the molecular hallmarks of amyloidoses is ordered protein aggregation involving the initial formation of soluble protein oligomers that eventually grow into insoluble fibrils. The identification and characterization of molecular species critical fo ...

Eye Thought You Were Sick! Exploring Eye Behaviors for Cybersickness Detection in VR

Ronan Boulic, Nana Tian

Cybersickness induced through Virtual Reality (VR) applications is still one of its main barriers as it can induce unwanted side-effects in players, significantly hindering the overall experience. Despite the wealth of research available on this topic, it ...
