All-Biobased Hydrovoltaic-Photovoltaic Electricity Generators for All-Weather Energy Harvesting
Hygroelectricity generators (HEGs) utilize the latent heat stored in environmental moisture for electricity generation, but nevertheless are showing relatively low power densities due to their weak energy harvesting capacities. Inspired by epiphytes that

Vacuum Energy Sequestering and Graviton Loops [PDF]
We recently formulated a local mechanism of vacuum energy sequester. This mechanism automatically removes all matter loop contributions to vacuum energy from the stress energy tensor which sources the curvature. Here we adapt the local vacuum energy sequestering mechanism to also cancel all the vacuum energy loops involving virtual gravitons, in ...

The Exact Quantum Sine-Gordon Field Equation and Other Non-Perturbative Results [PDF]
Using the methods of the "form factor program" exact expressions of all matrix elements are obtained for several operators of the quantum sine Gordon model: all powers of the fundamental bose field, general exponentials of it, the energy momentum tensor and all higher currents. It is found that the quantum sine-Gordon field equation holds with an exact

Fast MATLAB evaluation of nonlinear energies using FEM in 2D and 3D: nodal elements [PDF]
Nonlinear energy functionals appearing in the calculus of variations can be discretized by the finite element (FE) method and formulated as a sum of energy contributions from local elements. A fast evaluation of energy functionals containing the first order gradient terms is a central part of this contribution.

Gravitational vacuum polarization II: Energy conditions in the Boulware vacuum [PDF]
I show that in the Boulware vacuum (1) all standard (point-wise and averaged) energy conditions are violated throughout the exterior region---all the way from spatial infinity down to the event horizon, and (2) outside the event horizon the standard point-wise energy conditions are violated in a maximal manner: they are violated at all points and for ...

Energy-Efficient Broadcasting in All-Wireless Networks [PDF]
In all-wireless networks, minimizing energy consumption is crucial as in most cases the nodes are battery-operated. We focus on the problem of power-optimal broadcast, for which it is well known that the broadcast nature of radio transmissions can be exploited to optimize energy consumption. This problem appears to be difficult to solve.
