We present a model and protocol that enable the generation of extremely stable computer glasses at minimal computational cost. The protocol consists of an instantaneous quench in an augmented potential energy landscape, with particle radii as additional de ...
This paper deals with the initial value problem for a class of degenerate nonlinear parabolic equations on a bounded domain in R-N for N >= 2 with the Dirichlet boundary condition. The assumptions ensure that u (math) 0 is a stationary solution and its sta ...
This paper reviews the various graphic statics methods applied during the early structural design of the Collier Memorial, Cambridge, MA. Built in 2015 to honor fallen MIT Police Officer Sean Collier, the monument is a vaulted assembly of massive granite b ...
Dual active bridge (DAB) is a topology that is receiving more and more attention as a potential solution to interface dc grids of different voltage levels. From a system level, the implications of DABs on the stability of complex power systems are addresse ...
The present work deals with the defect chemistry and charge transport properties in halide perovskites, and in particular in the archetypal methylammonium lead iodide. These materials are extensively researched due to their very promising application as li ...
Dry-snow slab avalanches release due to the formation of a crack in a weak layer buried below cohesive snow slabs, followed by rapid crack propagation. The onset of rapid crack propagation occurs if stresses at the crack tip in the weak layer overcome its ...
The great interest in portable and wearable monitoring systems has promoted in recent years a major expansion of all-solid-state Ion-Selective Electrodes (ISEs). Nanostructured Solid-Contacts (SCs) have shown a promising potential in order to eliminate the ...
