An arbitrary-order Cell Method with block-diagonal mass-matrices for the time-dependent 2D Maxwell equations

We introduce a new numerical method for the time-dependent Maxwell equations on unstructured meshes in two space dimensions. This relies on the introduction of a new mesh, which is the barycentric-dual cellular complex of the starting simplicial mesh, and ...

A Low-Parametric Rhombic Microstructure Family for Irregular Lattices

Francis Julian Panetta

New fabrication technologies have significantly decreased the cost of fabrication of shapes with highly complex geometric structure. One important application of complex fine-scale geometric structures is to create variable effective elastic material prope ...

Fiber-interface directional coupler inscribed by femtosecond laser for refractive index measurements

Jiangtao Zhou, Zhechen Zhang, Yiping Wang, Jiachen Wang

A novel fiber-interface directional waveguide coupler was inscribed on the surface of a coreless fiber by femtosecond laser, and was successfully applied to highly sensitive refractive index (RI) measurements. The primary arm was first inscribed to couple ...

Protrusion-retraction switches and traction forces in spontaneous cell polarization

Alicia Carine Bornert

Cell migration is a fundamental property of all animal cells which is involved in processes such as embryogenesis, immune response, tissue regeneration and cancer metastasis. Directional migration requires cell polarization which could happen in response t ...

Modeling of percolation of globular-equiaxed grains in Al-Cu alloys

Michel Rappaz, Jean-Luc Desbiolles, Christophe Mondoux

A new mesoscopic model able to describe percolation of globular-equiaxed grains, highly relevant for hot tearing formation in castings, has been developed. This model is inspired from the granular model of Sistaninia et al. [1-5] that considers polyhedral ...

Grain Boundaries in Graphene on SiC(000(1)over-bar) Substrate

Oleg Yazyev, Fernando Gargiulo

Grain boundaries in epitaxial graphene on the SiC(000 (1) over bar) substrate are studied using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. All investigated small-angle grain boundaries show pronounced out-of-plane buckling induced by the strain fields ...

Upper bounds for the perimeter of plane convex bodies

Filip Moric

We show that the maximum total perimeter of k plane convex bodies with disjoint interiors lying inside a given convex body C is equal to , in the case when C is a square or an arbitrary triangle. A weaker bound is obtained for general plane convex bodies. ...

Planck 2013 results. XXVI. Background geometry and topology of the Universe

Julien Lesgourgues, Jason Douglas McEwen, Fabio Finelli

The new cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps from Planck provide the highest-quality full-sky view of the surface of last scattering available to date. This allows us to detect possible departures from the standard model of a globally homogen ...

Influence of Cr on the nucleation of primary Al and formation of twinned dendrites in Al-Zn-Cr alloys: Can icosahedral solid clusters play a role?

Michel Rappaz, Güven Kurtuldu

The equiaxed solidification of Al-20 wt.% Zn alloys revealed an unexpectedly large number of fine grains which are in a twin, or near-twin, relationship with their nearest neighbors when minute amounts of Cr (1000 ppm) are added to the melt. Several occurr ...

Stripes in the two-dimensional t-J model with infinite projected entangled-pair states

We simulate the t-J model in two dimensions by means of infinite projected entangled-pair states (iPEPS) generalized to arbitrary unit cells, finding results similar to those previously obtained by the density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) for wide l ...
