Multistackable, Domino‐Overlapped CNT Scaffolds Homogeneously Hybridized with BTO‐P(VDF‐TrFE) for High‐Performance Piezoelectric Nanogenerators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A multilayer‐stackable carbon nanotuber (CNT) scaffold‐based piezoelectric nanogenerator (CPENG) with domino‐patterned CNT pillars presents high, stable output (12.3 V, size of 1 cm × 1 cm) over 2000 cycles, operates across a wide temperature range, and efficiently converts energy from real‐life stimuli through optimized CNT length, layer stacking, and

Membrane Wrapping for High Capacity and Rapidly Switchable Adhesives

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A membrane‐wrapping mechanism enables high‐capacity, rapidly switchable adhesion by coupling suction, friction, and adhesion. Broadband performance is achieved in dry and underwater conditions, allowing fast, reversible manipulation of objects of diverse sizes and shapes, from delicate eggs and berries to flat, complex, or heavy objects. These outcomes

Extreme events

Intelligent Decision Technologies, 2008
According to scientists we all are experiencing "Extreme Events" every day. Even by being part of a traffic jam. In order to better understand these extreme events, the data of over one hundred gauging stations along the "Kölner Ring" (a Freeway around the city of Cologne) is being collected and analyzed. To help the scientists to understand their data,

Prediction of Extreme Events

2008
We discuss concepts for the prediction of extreme events based on time series data. We consider both probabilistic forecasts and predictions by precursors. Probabilistic forecasts employ estimates of the probability for the event to follow, whereas precursors are temporal patterns in the data typically preceeding events. Theoretical considerations lead

Extreme Events

2006
The assessment of risks posed by natural hazards such as floods, droughts, earthquakes, tsunamis or cyclones is often based on short-term historical records that may not reflect the full range or magnitude of events possible. As human populations grow, especially in hazard-prone areas, methods for accurately assessing natural hazard risks are becoming ...

Extreme events session

2022
Even though extremes seem to occur more often in recent times, they are by definition rare events. This poses challenges on the modeling and prediction of these processes, as we have only few samples. This class is meant as a gentle introduction into extreme value theory in the uniand multivariate case.

Extreme Events

2015
The monograph covers the fundamentals and the consequences of extreme geophysical phenomena like asteroid impacts, climatic change, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, landslides, volcanic eruptions, flooding, and space weather. This monograph also addresses their associated, local and worldwide socio-economic impacts. The understanding and modelling of

Compound Extreme Events Associated With Extreme Dust Events in the Gobi Desert Shift From Extreme Dust‐Extreme Cold Events to Extreme Hot‐Extreme Dust Events

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres
AbstractCompound extreme weather events are frequent and exhibit new features in the context of global change. This study unravels the characteristics, variations, and driving factors of compound extreme temperature‐extreme dust events in the Gobi Desert (GD) during the springs of 2000–2023. The temperature in the GD is high before extreme dust events (

Extreme scattering events

Il Nuovo Cimento B, 2006
Extreme scattering events (ESEs) are caused by the occultation to radio sources by AU-sized objects (or lenses). Free electrons in the lens seem to be responsible for the dramatic flux changes during the occultation but the nature of the lens is still a mystery. The lens may be a peculiar lump of interstellar medium (ISM). Recent self-gravitating cloud
