Exploring Packaging Strategies of Nano-embedded Thermoelectric Generators
Embedding nanostructures within a bulk matrix is an important practical approach towards the electronic engineering of high performance thermoelectric systems. For power generation applications, it ideally combines the efficienc ... Read More >

The Role of Temperature and Magnetic Effects on the Stacking-fault Energy in Aus ...
We have investigated the role of temperature and magnetic effects on the stacking-fault energy (SFE) in pure austenitic iron based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. Using the axial next-nearest-neighbor Ising (ANN ... Read More >

Urban skylines from Schelling model
We propose a metapopulation version of the Schelling model where two kinds of agents relocate themselves, with unconstrained destination, if their local fitness is lower than a tolerance threshold. We show that, for small values ... Read More >

Quantum Discord of $f$-Deformed Bipartite Entangled Oscillators
Quantum correlations in compound systems are of great importance, and they are fundamental resource for the development of quantum computation protocols and quantum information. In this work we construct bipartite pure coherent ... Read More >

Approaching unstructured search from function bilateral symmetry detection - A q ...
Detection of symmetry is vital to problem solving. Most of the problems of computer vision and computer graphics and machine intelligence in general, can be reduced to symmetry detection problem. Unstructured search problem can ... Read More >

Uni-directional synchronization and frequency difference locking induced by a he ...
A system of four coupled oscillators that exhibits unusual synchronization phenomena has been ana- lyzed. Existence of a one-way heteroclinic network, called heteroclinic ratchet, gives rise to uni-directional (de)synchronizatio ... Read More >

Entanglement rates for bipartite open systems
We provide upper bound on the maximal rate at which irreversible quantum dynamics can generate entanglement in a bipartite system. The generator of irreversible dynamics consists of a Hamiltonian and dissipative terms in Lindbla ... Read More >

The impact of latent heating on the location, strength and structure of the Trop ...
The Tropical Easterly Jet (TEJ) is a prominent atmospheric circulation feature observed during the Asian Summer Monsoon (ASM). The simulation of TEJ by the Community Atmosphere Model, version 3.1 (CAM-3.1) has been discussed in ... Read More >

Free energy analysis for a system of interacting particles arranged in Bravais l ...
We propose a method of free energy calculation for a system of interacting particles arranged in a Bravais lattice. It will be shown how to treat divergences for infinite unbounded systems with "catastrophic" potetntials like Co ... Read More >

Coronal sources and in situ properties of the solar winds sampled by ACE during ...
We identify the coronal sources of the solar winds sampled by the ACE spacecraft during 1999-2008, and examine the in situ solar wind properties as a function of wind sources. The standard two-step mapping technique is adopted t ... Read More >
