Wet-snow avalanche interaction with a deflecting dam: field observations and numerical simulations in a case study [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2012 In avalanche-prone areas, deflecting dams are widely used to divert avalanches away from endangered objects. In recent years, their effectiveness has been questioned when several large and multiple avalanches have overrun such dams.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Considerable efforts have been dedicated to developing effective treatments for post‐stroke executive impairment (PSEI), among which repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has shown great potential. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of high‐frequency rTMS on working memory (WM) and response ...

Radiation damage effect on avalanche photodiodes [PDF]
Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1999 Abstract Avalanche photodiodes have been chosen as photon sensors for the electromagnetic calorimeter of the CMS experiment at the LHC. These sensors should operate in the 4 T magnetic field of the experiment. Because of the high neutron radiation in the detector extensive studies have been done by the CMS collaboration on the APD neutron radiation ...

Keyed Hash Function Using Hyper Chaotic System With Time-Varying Parameters Perturbation
IEEE Access, 2019 Secure hash function plays an important role in cryptography. This paper constructs a hash algorithm using the hyperchaotic Lorenz system, which serves as a sponge function to absorb input message via multiple parameters time-varying perturbation. First,

Glissile Interphase Boundaries Enable Collective Phase Switching in Epitaxial Polar Oxides
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A triple point is identified in the phase diagram of low‐symmetry epitaxial BiFeO3 thin film along with an extended regime of phase competition associated with a flattened energy landscape. The electromechanical response is shown to be governed by correlated interphase‐boundary motion, including scale‐free avalanche dynamics characteristic of systems ...
