Reproducibility warning: The curious case of polyethylene glycol 6000 and spheroid cell culture

Francesco Stellacci, Quy Ong Khac, Zhi Luo, Ahmet Bekdemir

Reproducibility of results is essential for a well-designed and conducted experiment. Several reasons may originate failure in reproducing data, such as selective reporting, low statistical power, or poor analysis. In this study, we used PEG6000 samples fr ...

Being Part of the Swarm: Experiencing Human-Swarm Interaction with VR and Tangible Robots

Pierre Dillenbourg, Barbara Bruno, Arzu Güneysu Özgür, Kevin Gonyop Kim, Hala Khodr

A swarm is the coherent behavior that emerges ubiquitously fromsimple interaction rules between self-organized agents. Understand-ing swarms is of utmost importance in many disciplines and jobs,but hard to teach due to the elusive nature of the phenomenon, ...

Analysis of the interaction factor method for energy pile groups with slab

Lyesse Laloui, Melis Sütman, Elena Ravera

The design of energy pile is hampered by the complex interaction between the piles and the slab subjected to thermal loads. Although finite element analysis is used to account explicitly for the interactions, this method is mainly considered as a research ...

Analysis of the vertical displacement of energy pile groups

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

Over the last fifty years, the interaction factor method has been widely used to address the vertical displacement and the increased deformation of conventional pile groups subjected to mechanical loads when group effects and interactions occur among the p ...

An Automatic, Data-Driven Definition of Atomic-Scale Structural Motifs

Piero Gasparotto

Structure-property relationships at the atomic scale are usually understood in terms of recurrent structural motifs formed by atoms and molecules, and how they transform and interact with each other. We introduce with this thesis a novel analysis approach, ...
