Fractal Nanotechnology [PDF]

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2008
Abstract Self-similar patterns are frequently observed in Nature. Their reproduction is possible on a length scale 102–105 nm with lithographic methods, but seems impossible on the nanometer length scale. It is shown that this goal may be achieved via a multiplicative variant of the multi-spacer patterning technology, in this way permitting ...

Fractal Analysis on Pore Structure and Hydration of Magnesium Oxysulfate Cements by First Principle, Thermodynamic and Microstructure-Based Methods

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2021
Magnesium oxysulfate (MOS) cement is a typical eco-friendly cementitious material, which presents excellent performances. In this work, a novel multiscale modeling strategy is proposed to simulate the hydration and pore structure of MOS cement system ...

Vaccines Alone Cannot Slow the Evolution of SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesVaccines, 2023
The rapid emergence of immune-evading viral variants of SARS-CoV-2 calls into question the practicality of a vaccine-only public-health strategy for managing the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It has been suggested that widespread vaccination is necessary to

Switched-capacitor-convertors based on fractal design for output power management of triboelectric nanogenerator

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Owing to the advantages of integration and being magnet-free and light-weight, the switched-capacitor-convertor plays an increasing role compared to traditional transformer in some specific power supply systems.

The Potential of Biophilic Fractal Designs to Promote Health and Performance: A Review of Experiments and Applications

open access: yesSustainability, 2021
Fractal objects are prevalent in natural scenery. Their repetition of patterns at increasingly fine magnifications creates a rich complexity. Fractals displaying mid-range complexity are the most common and include trees, clouds, and mountains.

Photonic Floquet topological insulators in a fractal lattice [PDF]

open access: yesLight: Science & Applications, 2020
We present Floquet fractal topological insulators: photonic topological insulators in a fractal-dimensional lattice consisting of helical waveguides. The helical modulation induces an artificial gauge field and leads to a trivial-to-topological phase ...

Fractal dimension for fractal structures

open access: yesTopology and its Applications, 2014
The main goal of this paper has a double purpose. On the one hand, we propose a new definition in order to compute the fractal dimension of a subset respect to any fractal structure, which completes the theory of classical box-counting dimension. Indeed, if we select the so called natural fractal structure on each euclidean space, then we will get the ...

Evaluating social learning in participatory mapping of ecosystem services

open access: yesEcosystems and People, 2019
Recent studies have shown the opportunities and limitations of participatory mapping for ecosystem services management, although it is an incipient research area. One of the research questions yet to be addressed is whether the composition of stakeholder
