The fabrication of small molecule organic light-emitting diode pixels by laser-induced forward transfer

Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) is a versatile organic light-emitting diode (OLED) pixel deposition process, but has hitherto been applied exclusively to polymeric materials. Here, a modified LIFT process has been used to fabricate small molecule Alq ...

Measuring the thermal balance of a snow avalanche

Michael Lehning, Betty Sovilla, Tobias Jonas, Walter Steinkogler

Avalanches can exhibit many different flow regimes from powder clouds to slush flows. Flow regimes are largely controlled by the properties of the snow released and entrained along the path. Recent investigations showed the temperature of the moving snow t ...

Combining cellular automata and lattice Boltzmann method to model multiscale avascular tumor growth coupled with nutrient diffusion and immune competition

Davide Alemani

In the last decades the Lattice Boltzmann method (LB) has been successfully used to simulate a variety of processes. The LB model describes the microscopic processes occurring at the cellular level and the macroscopic processes occurring at the continuum l ...

Towards the Glass Transition in Vibrated Granular Matter

Alessandro Luigi Sellerio

Granular materials are large sets of macroscopic particles that interact solely via contact forces. The static behavior depends on the contact network and on the surface friction forces between grains; when they are set in motion (typically by vibrations) ...

Application of Exergy Analysis in Energy Requirements Assay of the Typical Process Unit Operations of Chemical Industries

Amélie Courjon

This project proposes a method based on exergy analysis for considering energy efficiency problems. Because exergy is not a concept frequently used by industrials attention has been paid to go through what is exergy and how it can be so useful to enhance t ...

Affine Variance Swap Curve Models

Damir Filipovic

This paper provides a brief overview of the stochastic modeling of variance swap curves. Focus is on affine factor models. We propose a novel drift parametrization which assures that the components of the state process can be matched with any pre-specified ...

Thermomechanical Hysteresis of Biological and Synthetic Hydrogels

Arne Christian Vogel

The nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disc is a gelatinous viscous hydrogel that has an essential role in the mechanics of the intervertebral disc joint. The viscoelastic properties of the nucleus pulposus significantly change in the course of time an ...

Unified cluster expansion method applied to the configurational thermodynamics of cubic Ti1-xAlxN

Alireza Karimi

We study the thermodynamics of cubic Ti1-xAlxN using a unified cluster expansion approach for the alloy problem. The purely configurational part of the alloy Hamiltonian is expanded in terms of concentration- and volume-dependent effective cluster interact ...

Determination of Transmembrane Water Fluxes in Neurons Elicited by Glutamate Ionotropic Receptors and by the Co-transporters KCC2 and NKCC1: A Digital Holographic Microscopy Study

Pierre Magistretti, Christian Depeursinge, Nicolas Pavillon, Benjamin Rappaz, Pierre Marquet, Pascal Jourdain, Daniel Boss, Corinne Moratal

Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) is a noninvasive optical imaging technique that provides quantitative phase images of living cells. In a recent study, we showed that the quantitative monitoring of the phase signal by DHM was a simple label-free method ...
