Optimization of Giant Magnetoimpedance Effect of Amorphous Microwires by Postprocessing
(MDPI, 2024-03-12)
Magnetic microwires with amorphous structures can present a unique combination of excellent magnetic softness and giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) effects together with reduced dimensions and good mechanical properties. Such ...
The determination of optimum segmentation parameters using genetic algorithms: Application to different segmentation algorithms and transmission electron microscopy tomography reconstructed volumes
(Wiley, 2023-10)
A method for optimizing an automatic selection of values for parameters that feed segmentation algorithms is proposed. Evolutionary optimization techniques in combination with a fitness function based on a mutual information ...
Assessing the feasibility of near-ambient conditions superconductivity in the Lu-N- H system
(Springer Nature, 2024-04-24)
The report of near-ambient superconductivity in nitrogen-doped lutetium hydrides (Lu-N-H) has generated a great interest. However, conflicting results raised doubts regarding superconductivity. Here, we combine high-throughput ...
A kinetic Monte Carlo study of the C3S dissolution mechanism
(Elsevier, 2024-06-09)
Understanding the mechanism that controls cement hydration and its stages is a long-standing challenge. Over a decade ago, the mineral dissolution theory was adopted from geochemistry to explain the hydration rate evolution ...
Elucidating the synergistic effects of temperature rise inhibitor at the water tricalcium silicate interface
(ACS, 2024-04)
Organic–inorganic composites play a crucial role in modulating concrete properties, encompassing interfacial interactions and their synergistic mechanisms. Unraveling these interactions presents a formidable challenge. In ...
CO and O2 interaction with kinked Pt surfaces
(ACS, 2024-04)
We investigate the chemical interaction of carbon monoxide (CO) and oxygen (O2) with kink atoms on steps of platinum crystal surfaces using a specially designed Pt curved sample. We aim at describing the fundamental stages ...
Fluorometric measurement of calmodulin-dependent peptide–protein interactions using dansylated calmodulin
(Bio-protocol LLC, 2024-04)
The assessment of peptide–protein interactions is a pivotal aspect of studying the functionality and mechanisms of various bioactive peptides. In this context, it is essential to employ methods that meet specific criteria, ...
Large impact of phonon lineshapes on the superconductivity of solid hydrogen
(Springer Nature, 2024-05-09)
Phonon anharmonicity plays a crucial role in determining the stability and vibrational properties of high-pressure hydrides. Furthermore, strong anharmonicity can render phonon quasiparticle picture obsolete questioning ...
Jupiter's third largest and longest-lived oval: Color changes and dynamics
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
The transition region between the North Equatorial Band (NEBn) and North Tropical Zone (NTrZ) in Jupiter is home to convective storms, systems of cyclones and anticyclones and atmospheric waves. Zonal winds are weak but ...
Optical fiber interferometer for temperature-independent refractive index measuring over a broad range
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
The present work relates to manufacturing of a simple interferometric optical fiber refractometer that features broad refractive index measuring range without ambiguity. The device consists of a cylindrical polymer cavity ...
