Applications of bound states in the continuum in photonics [PDF]

Nature Reviews Physics, 2023
Bound states in the continuum (BICs) have attracted attention in photonics owing to their interesting properties. For example, BICs can effectively confine light in a counterintuitive way, and the far-field radiation of photonic structures that exhibit ...

LAMMPS - A flexible simulation tool for particle-based materials modeling at the atomic, meso, and continuum scales

Computer Physics Communications, 2021
Since the classical molecular dynamics simulator LAMMPS was released as an open source code in 2004, it has become a widely-used tool for particle-based modeling of materials at length scales ranging from atomic to mesoscale to continuum. Reasons for its

Continuum Robots: An Overview

Advanced Intelligent Systems, 2023
Herein, recent advances, current limitations, and open challenges in the design, modeling, and control of continuum robots are discussed. Thanks to their lean bodies, these robots achieve a long reach through narrow and tortuous environments, enabling ...

Numerical and experimental investigation of multi-species bacterial co-aggregation

Scientific Reports, 2023
This paper deals with the mathematical modeling of bacterial co-aggregation and its numerical implementation in a FEM framework. Since the concept of co-aggregation refers to the physical binding between cells of different microbial species, a system ...

Testing the Evolutionary Sequence of High Mass Protostars with CARMA [PDF]

, 2009
We present 1" resolution CARMA observations of the 3mm continuum and 95 GHz methanol masers toward 14 candidate high mass protostellar objects (HMPOs). Dust continuum emission is detected toward seven HMPOs, and methanol masers toward 5 sources.

Global estimates on the number of persons across the Alzheimer's disease continuum

Alzheimer's & Dementia, 2022
Global estimates on numbers of persons in early stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD), including prodromal and preclinical, are lacking, yet are needed to inform policy decisions on preventive measures and planning for future therapies targeting AD ...

Ultralow-threshold laser using super-bound states in the continuum

Nature Communications, 2021
Wavelength-scale lasers provide promising applications through low power consumption requiring for optical cavities with increased quality factors. Cavity radiative losses can be suppressed strongly in the regime of optical bound states in the continuum;

Longitudinal Variations in Physiochemical Conditions and Their Consequent Effect on Phytoplankton Functional Diversity Within a Subtropical System of Cascade Reservoirs

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The social and environmental impacts of large dams are quantifiable and have been well documented, while small dams have often been presumed to be less environmentally damaging than large dams.
