Fundamental Modes of Swimming Correspond to Fundamental Modes of Shape: Engineering I‐, U‐, and S‐Shaped Swimmers [PDF]
Hydrogels have received increased attention due to their biocompatible material properties, adjustable porosity, ease of functionalization, tuneable shape, and Young's moduli. Initial work has recognized the potential that conferring out‐of‐equilibrium properties to these on the microscale holds and envisions a broad range of biomedical applications ...

How Modes Shape Casimir Physics
Modes have steadily influenced the understanding of physical systems through time. At least since the prediction of the Casimir effect, they also play a very important role in Casimir physics and in the understanding of the different phenomena typical of this research field.

Cracks weaken structures. When the crack size increases in service, the structure becomes weaker than its earlier condition. Lastly, the structure may break down due to a small crack.

T-shaped mode coupler for two-mode mode division multiplexing
We propose a novel type of mode coupler consisting of two identical rectangular few-mode waveguides with different orientations. Numerical simulation indicates that mode extinction ratio exceeding 20dB can be achieved by well-aligned waveguides.

Mode conversion via wavefront shaping
In recent years, wavefront shaping has been utilized to control and correct distorted light for enhancing a bright spot, generation of a Bessel beam or darkening a complete area at the output of a scattering system. All these outcomes can be thought of as enhancing a particular mode of the output field. In this letter, we study the relation between the
