Microscopic systems with and without Coulomb interaction, fragmentation and phase transitions in finite nuclei [PDF]
We test the influence of the Coulomb interaction on the thermodynamic and cluster generation properties of a system of classical particles described by different lattice models. Numerical simulations show that the Coulomb interaction produces essentially a shift in temperature of quantities like the specific heat but not qualitative changes.

Bilateral Vestibulopathy: Vestibular Function, Dynamic Visual Acuity and Functional Impact
Introduction: Patients suffering from bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH) often experience ataxia as well as visual instability. Even though progress has been made in vestibular testing, insights regarding vestibular deficit in BVH remain incomplete ...

Dissociation between Caloric and Video Head Impulse Tests in Dizziness Clinics
Vestibular assessment tests such as the video head impulse test (vHIT) for the horizontal semicircular canal, and caloric test (Cal), both evaluate horizontal canal function.

The “broken escalator” phenomenon: Vestibular dizziness interferes with locomotor adaptation [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Although vestibular lesions degrade postural control we do not know the relative contributions of the magnitude of the vestibular loss and subjective vestibular symptoms to locomotor adaptation.

Caloric Micro-cooling: Numerical modelling and parametric investigation [PDF]
Cooling systems based on the caloric effects of ferroic materials show high potential for various cooling and heat-pumping applications due to their potentially high efficiencies and the lack of any environmentally hazardous refrigerants. One of such applications that has recently gained the attention of the scientific community is micro-cooling, which
