Testing Benchmark for a Block Conjugate Gradient Solving Scheme in Poroelasticity

With the advancement in fields of science more complex and more coupled phenomena can be explained, calculated and predicted. To solve these problems one has to update the related tools. Since analytical solutions do not exist for all physical processes, s ...

Small Obstacle in a Large Polar Flock

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

We show that arbitrarily large polar flocks are susceptible to the presence of a single small obstacle. In a wide region of parameter space, the obstacle triggers counterpropagating dense bands leading to reversals of the flow. In very large systems, these ...

Entrepreneurship across Sociocultural Contexts: Empirical and Theoretical Perspectives

Shirah Eden Foy

Entrepreneurship is a highly contextualized process. Yet, the vast majority of entrepreneurship research has focused on Western contexts, yielding a skewed picture of global entrepreneurial behavior. Moreover, theories of mainstream psychology explaining t ...

A General Framework for Pearlescent Materials

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Ibon Guillen Serrano

The unique and visually mesmerizing appearance of pearlescent materials has made them an indispensable ingredient in a diverse array of applications including packaging, ceramics, printing, and cosmetics. In contrast to their natural counterparts, such syn ...

Single channel Josephson effect in a high transmission atomic contact

Klaus Kern, Markus Etzkorn, Jacob Senkpiel

The Josephson effect in scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is an excellent tool to probe the properties of a superconductor on a local scale. We use atomic manipulation in a low temperature STM to create mesoscopic single channel contacts and study the Jo ...

Projective multiscale time-integration for electrostatic particle-in-cell methods

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Paul Isaac Denis Louis Marie Cazeaux

The simulation of problems in kinetic plasma physics is often challenging due to strongly coupled phenomena across multiple scales. In this work, we propose a wavelet-based coarse-grained numerical scheme, based on the framework of Equation-Free Projective ...

Subsurface ablation of tissue by ultrafast laser

Thomas Jean Victor Marie Lanvin

Laser-induced optical breakdown (LIOB) is a multiphoton process which can be used for selective removal of material. It revolves around the creation of a plasma in the focal volume of a beam, and requires very high peak intensities in the order of the GW.c ...

Reindustrializing Europe

Roberto Sega, Ianira Vassallo

“For a European Industrial Renaissance” it’s the title of the European Commission Communication in January 2014 which promotes the reintroduction of production of goods and services in Europe and wants to implement a solid industry base through specific po ...

Probing the Limits of Social Data

Alexandra Olteanu

Online social data has been hailed to provide unprecedented insights into human phenomena due to its ability to capture human behavior at a scale and level of detail, both in breadth and depth, that is hard to achieve through conventional data collection t ...

Effect of groundwater flow on the THM behavior of an energy pile

Lyesse Laloui, Fabrice Dupray, Mélanie Baehler

Bridges are one of the road structures that are most exposed to icing, a problem that is widely dealt with through salting, a technique that reduce the lifespan of the bridge. Seasonal storage of solar heat energy captured directly through the asphalt laye ...
