Large Anomalous Nernst Angle in Co2MnGa Thin Film

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Simon Granville, Haiming Yu, Song Liu, Junfeng Hu, Yao Zhang

The new trends for anomalous Nernst effect (ANE)-based thermoelectric devices require materials with large ANE values to realize the scalable generation of voltage. Recently, very large ANE values have been observed in single crystals of some novel magneti ...

Development of a Heavy Metal Sensing Boat for Automatic Analysis in Natural Waters Utilizing Anodic Stripping Voltammetry

Qiuyue Yang, Bhawna Nagar

Determination of the levels of heavy metal ions would support assessment of sources and pathways of water pollution. However, traditional spatial assessment by manual sampling and off-site detection in the laboratory is expensive and time-consuming and req ...

Improving filling level classification with adversarial training

Pascal Frossard, Andrea Cavallaro, Apostolos Modas

We investigate the problem of classifying - from a single image the level of content in a cup or a drinking glass. This problem is made challenging by several ambiguities caused by transparencies, shape variations and partial occlusions, and by the availab ...

Chemical Cell Surface Modification and Analysis of Nanoparticle-Modified Living Cells

Harm-Anton Klok, Tanja Thomsen

Cells are promising as carriers that can enhance the delivery of nanomedicines. Cells that carry nanomedicinal cargo, either immobilized on the cell surface or internalized, can allow for highly specific delivery and can enable the transport of nanomedicin ...

From bulk descriptions to emergent interfaces: Connecting the Ginzburg-Landau and elastic-line models

Thierry Giamarchi, Elisabeth Agoritsas

Controlling interfaces is highly relevant from a technological point of view. However, their rich and complex behavior makes them very difficult to describe theoretically, and hence to predict. In this work, we establish a procedure to connect two levels o ...

Waste collection inventory routing with non-stationary stochastic demands

Sacha Varone, Michel Bierlaire, Iliya Dimitrov Markov, Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

We solve a rich routing problem inspired from practice, in which a heterogeneous fixed fleet is used for collecting recyclable waste from large containers over a finite planning horizon. Each container is equipped with a sensor that communicates its level ...

Mask to identify polluted periods during the Arctic Ocean 2018 expedition

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini

Aerosol and trace gas measurements are strongly affected by the ship exhaust and other human activities (e.g., helicopter flights). Therefore, it is important to discriminate between clean and polluted periods. This mask provides an indication of clean per ...

Local structural investigation of hafnia-zirconia polymorphs in powders and thin films by X-ray absorption spectroscopy

Reinis Ignatans

Despite increasing attention for the recently found ferro- and antiferroelectric properties, the polymorphism in hafnia- and zirconia-based thin films is still not sufficiently understood. In the present work, we show that it is important to have a good qu ...

Microfluidics: A Tool to Control the Size and Composition of Particles

Esther Amstad

Particles and capsules are used as containers for active ingredients to delay their degradation and control the location and kinetics of their release. Key to a successful application of these containers is a good control over their size, composition, and ...

Wave-reducing Stern Flap on Ship Convoys to Protect Riverbanks

Giovanni De Cesare, Anton Schleiss, Robin Amacher, Théodora Cohen Liechti, Michael Pfister

Inland navigable waterways are significant in cargo transport and leisure activities. In parallel, these channels and rivers often suffer from the ship traffic, as the generated waves may damage waterway banks, along with their riparian fauna. As a consequ ...

Geometric Mixing, Peristalsis, and the Geometric Phase of the Stomach

Nicolas Piro Mastracchio

Mixing fluid in a container at low Reynolds number-in an inertialess environment-is not a trivial task. Reciprocating motions merely lead to cycles of mixing and unmixing, so continuous rotation, as used in many technological applications, would appear to ...
