The booming popularity of online services is rapidly raising the demands for modern datacenters. In order to cope with data deluge, growing user bases, and tight quality of service constraints, service providers deploy massive datacenters with tens to hund ...
As fossil fuel reserves are limited in stock and there is an urgent call to reduce the carbon footprint, distribution grids urgently need to move towards heavy use of local and distributed generation of electricity using renewable energy sources. Another p ...
This paper describes the progress of the DEMO Design Activities in Europe and particularly the work done to address critical design integration issues that affect the machine configuration and performance, the plant concept layout and the selection of syst ...
With the progress made in miniaturizing systems over the last decades, understanding materialsâ behavior at small scales has become a necessity.
In this context, glass behavior has remained largely unknown, partly for technological reasons and partly due ...
Nowadays, the interest in 2D materials has gone far beyond graphene. Specially, monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) offer a broad spectrum of electronic and optical properties, and show the potential to revolutionize the electronics indus ...
Socio-technical energy transitions are long-term and major transformations in incumbent energy infrastructures. They include fundamental changes in technologies as well as institutions and social patterns. Transition studies are primarily focused on framew ...
This paper presents a monolithic approach for the integration of silicon nanowires (Si NWs) with microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). The process is demonstrated for the case of co-fabrication of Si NWs with a 10-μm-thick MEMS on the same silicon-on-insu ...
