SORI: A softness-rendering interface to unravel the nature of softness perception
Jamie Paik, Mustafa Mete, Hwayeong Jeong
Tactile perception of softness serves a critical role in the survival, well-being, and social interaction among various species, including humans. This perception informs activities from food selection in animals to medical palpation for disease detection ...
Natl Acad Sciences2024Targeted worker removal reveals a lack of flexibility in brood transport specialisation with no compensatory gain in efficiency
Mahmut Selman Sakar, Laurent Keller, Fazil Emre Uslu
Division of labour is widely thought to increase the task efficiency of eusocial insects. Workers can switch their task to compensate for sudden changes in demand, providing flexible task allocation. In combination with automated tracking technology, we de ...
2024The Longhouse
The lecture discussed the longhouse, the linear, long, and narrow habitation typology that existed and still exists in many parts of the world, including South-East Asia, Europe, and North America. While there are numerous scholarly investigations of speci ...
2023Why do we need so many proteins? A physical insight into the collaboration of Hsp70 and DnaJ
The Hsp70 cycle is a key element of protein homeostasis, which is essential to avoid protein aggregation and protein-related diseases. Despite many experimental observations of the interaction between Hsp70, its co-chaperone DnaJ and various substrates, li ...
EPFL2023Patron-Driven Acquisition et Evidence-Based Acquisition: Comment implémenter ces modèles afin d’étendre l’offre documentaire dans une bibliothèque ?
Nowadays, usage-based acquisition models for e-books, as PDA and EBA, are quite spread and allow libraries to offer wider collections, without acquiring them. A PDA with Ebook Central was implemented in 2019 and a first EBA with Wiley in 2021. The EPFL Lib ...
Liège Université2022Hubbard U through polaronic defect states
Alfredo Pasquarello, Stefano Falletta
Since the preliminary work of Anisimov and co-workers, the Hubbard corrected DFT+U functional has been used for predicting properties of correlated materials by applying on-site effective Coulomb interactions to specific orbitals. However, the determinatio ...
NATURE PORTFOLIO2022Making Molecules Vibrate: Interactive Web Environment for the Teaching of Infrared Spectroscopy
Berend Smit, Luc Patiny, Kevin Maik Jablonka
Infrared spectroscopy (IR) is a staple structural elucidation and characterization technique because of its ability to identify functional groups and its ease of use. Interestingly, it allows the capture of electronic effects via their influence on the bon ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2022Identification of a Heteroleptic Pd6L6L′6 Coordination Cage by Screening of a Virtual Combinatorial Library
Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Suzanne Maria Jansze, Rujin Li, Sylvain Alexandre Marie Sudan
The design of structurally defined heteroleptic coordination cages is a challenging task, and only few examples are known to date. Here we describe a selection approach that allowed the identification of a novel hexanuclear Pd cage containing two types of ...
2021Simulating Mold Risks under Future Climate Conditions
Tobias Kippenberg, Rui Ning Wang, Anat Siddharth, Viacheslav Snigirev, Junqiu Liu, Wenle Weng, Jijun He
This research tests the potential susceptibility of a prevalent, residential, wall assembly to the risk of sustained mold-growth in predicted future climate conditions. Here, the authors demonstrate a methodology that combines hygrothermal and mold-growth ...
IEEE2021Conformable Hybrid Systems for Implantable Bioelectronic Interfaces
Stéphanie Lacour, Giuseppe Schiavone, Florian Dylan Fallegger
Conformable bioelectronic systems are promising tools that may aid the understanding of diseases, alleviate pathological symptoms such as chronic pain, heart arrhythmia, and dysfunctions, and assist in reversing conditions such as deafness, blindness, and ...
