Orientation-dependent two-dimensional magnonic crystal modes in an ultralow-damping ferrimagnetic waveguide containing repositioned hexagonal lattices of Cu disks

Dirk Grundler

Two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal lattices of Cu disks are shown to induce orientation-dependent magnonic crystal (MC) modes for propagating forward volume spin waves in a single-crystal yttrium iron garnet (YIG) film. The width and depth of the magnonic band ...

A novel fatigue life prediction methodology based on energy dissipation in viscoelastic materials, synergistic effects of stress level, stress ratio, and temperature

Thomas Keller, Lulu Liu, Abdolvahid Movahedirad

This work introduces a new methodology to predict the fatigue life of viscoelastic materials by considering the creep effect on fatigue behavior under the concurrent effects of stress level, stress ratio, and temperature. The model established based on the ...

Intelligent plantar pressure offloading for the prevention of diabetic foot ulcers and amputations

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Christian Köchli, Sofia Lydia Ntella, Bhawnath Tiwari, Kenny Jeanmonod

The high prevalence of lower extremity ulceration and amputation in people with diabetes is strongly linked to difficulties in achieving and maintaining a reduction of high plantar pressures (PPs) which remains an important risk factor. The effectiveness o ...

Sex-dimorphic and age-dependent organization of 24-hour gene expression rhythms in humans

Felix Naef, Cédric Gobet, Lorenzo Talamanca

The circadian clock modulates human physiology. However, the organization of tissue-specific gene expression rhythms and how these depend on age and sex is not defined in humans. We combined data from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project with an a ...

Triple Crossed Flexure Pivot Based on a Zero Parasitic Center Shift Kinematic Design

Simon Nessim Henein, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann

Thanks to their absence of play, absence of contact friction and possible monolithic fabrication, flexure pivots offer advantages over traditional bearings in small-scale, high accuracy applications and environments where lubrication and wear debris are pr ...

Exploring light exposure of hospital nurses working rapidly rotating shifts in relation to sleepiness and sleep

Steffen Lutz Hartmeyer

Nightshift work can negatively impact sleep, performance, and health. Careful manipulation of light exposure patterns can help reduce these negative effects but is challenging in conditions of rapidly rotating shiftwork and due to individual differences. A ...

Sleep disturbance-related depressive symptom and brain volume reduction in shift-working nurses

Chang-Hyun Park

Disturbed sleep is the most common effect of shift work. A large corpus of research indicates an association between sleep disturbance and depressive symptom in shift workers. In this study, we proposed the mediating role of grey matter (GM) structure in t ...

Effects of composition and pressure on electronic states of iron in bridgmanite

Philippe Gillet, Arnaud Magrez, Susannah McGregor Dorfman

Electronic states of iron in the lower mantle's dominant mineral, (Mg,Fe,Al)(Fe,Al,Si)O-3 bridgmanite, control physical properties of the mantle including density, elasticity, and electrical and thermal conductivity. However, the determination of electroni ...

Low-dimensional dynamics of two coupled biological oscillators

Felix Naef, Eric Paquet, Colas Noé Droin

The circadian clock and the cell cycle are two biological oscillatory processes that coexist within individual cells. These two oscillators were found to interact, which can lead to their synchronization. Here, we develop a method to identify a low-dimensi ...

The effect of frontoparietal paired associative stimulation on decision-making and working memory

Traian Popa

Previous single-site neurostimulation experiments have unsuccessfully attempted to shift decision-making away from habitual control, a fast, inflexible cognitive strategy, towards goal-directed control, a flexible, though computationally expensive strategy ...

Personal CO2 cloud: laboratory measurements of metabolic CO2 inhalation zone concentration and dispersion in a typical office desk setting

Dusan Licina

Inhalation exposure to pure and metabolic elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration has been associated with impaired work performance, lower perceived air quality, and increased health symptoms. In this study, the concentration of metabolic CO2 was cont ...

Spatial clusters of daytime sleepiness and association with nighttime noise levels in a Swiss general population (GeoHypnoLaus)

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous

INTRODUCTION: Daytime sleepiness is highly prevalent in the general adult population and has been linked to an increased risk of workplace and vehicle accidents, lower professional performance and poorer health. Despite the established relationship between ...
