Optimization of Bi-Directional V2G Behavior With Active Battery Anti-Aging Scheduling [PDF]
The bi-directional linkage between the power grid and electric vehicles (EVs) enables flexible, cheap and fast-responding use of vehicle batteries in the grid. However, the battery aging effects due to the additional operation cycles caused by Vehicle-to-

Fluctuation-dissipation theorem in an aging colloidal glass [PDF]
We provide a direct experimental test of the Stokes-Einstein relation as a special case of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) in an aging colloidal glass. The use of combined active and passive microrheology allows us to independently measure both

The stress polarity signaling (SPS) pathway serves as a marker and a target in the leaky gut barrier: implications in aging and cancer. [PDF]
The gut barrier separates trillions of microbes from the largest immune system in the body; when compromised, a "leaky" gut barrier fuels systemic inflammation, which hastens the progression of chronic diseases.

Experimental study of out of equilibrium fluctuations in a colloidal suspension of Laponite using optical traps [PDF]
This work is devoted to the study of displacement fluctuations of micron-sized particles in an aging colloidal glass. We address the issue of the validity of the fluctuation dissipation theorem (FDT) and the time evolution of viscoelastic properties ...
