Optical Diversity and Nanostructural Organization in the Colored Scales of Sternotomis

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Vivid colors in Sternotomis beetles originate from nanoscale photonic architectures embedded within individual scales. Here, we provide a comparative optical and structural analysis of 57 scale types that reveal how ordered, quasi‐ordered, and disordered 3D networks tune color, saturation, and angular response.

Optimal control of the heave motion of marine cable subsea-unit systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
One of the key problems associated with subsea operations involving tethered subsea units is the motions of support vessels on the ocean surface which can be transmitted to the subsea unit through the cable and increase the tension.

Time-Reversal of Nonlinear Waves - Applicability and Limitations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Time-reversal (TR) refocusing of waves is one of fundamental principles in wave physics. Using the TR approach, "Time-reversal mirrors" can physically create a time-reversed wave that exactly refocus back, in space and time, to its original source ...

Ratiometric Temperature Sensing through Alternating Current Electroluminescence

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Thermoresponsive alternating current electroluminescence (ACEL) is realized in ZnS microparticles with optimized Cu, Cl, and Co tri‐doping concentrations, exhibiting a blue‐to‐green emission band shift along with increasing temperature. Based on this behavior, an ACEL‐driven temperature sensing platform is developed for quantitative temperature ...

Integrated Numerical Modelling System for Extreme Wave Events at the Wave Hub Site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper examines an extreme wave event which occurred during a storm at the Wave Hub site in 2012. The extreme wave of 9.57 m height was identified from a time series of the heave data collected by an Oceanor Seawatch Mini II Buoy deployed at the site.
