Pattern interaction effect [PDF]
Unexpected responses of physical systems to external stimuli can be observed when the stimuli are organized into spatial patterns and, especially, when stimuli of different physical origins are involved, leading to the pattern interaction problem ...

Reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers (RSOAs) are key elements for modern optical communications. Despite their widespread deployment, their performance when intended for ultrafast data amplification is limited by their inherently slow gain ...

Wetting Effect on Patterned Substrates
AbstractA droplet deposited on a solid substrate leads to the wetting phenomenon. A natural observation is the lotus effect, known for its superhydrophobicity. This special feature is engendered by the structured microstructure of the lotus leaf, namely, surface heterogeneity, as explained by the quintessential Cassie–Wenzel theory (CWT). In this work,

Two Competing Drivers of the Recent Walker Circulation Trend
The Pacific Walker circulation (PWC) weakens under global warming in climate change projections, supported by a global hydrological constraint. However, the PWC has strengthened over the past decades despite ongoing global warming, and the cause has been

Explaining Forcing Efficacy With Pattern Effect and State Dependence
The magnitude of global surface temperature change in response to unit radiative forcing depends on the type and magnitude of forcing agent—a concept known as a “forcing efficacy.” However, the mechanisms behind the forcing efficacy are still unclear. In

Effective TARO Pattern Generation [PDF]
TARO test patterns are transition fault test patterns that sensitize each transition fault to all of the outputs that can be reached from the fault location. We were not able to identify any ATPG tool that can generate TARO test patterns directly. This paper describes a technique to use an existing transition fault ATPG tool to efficiently generate ...

Surface Temperature Pattern Scenarios Suggest Higher Warming Rates Than Current Projections
Atmosphere‐ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs) struggle to reproduce recently observed sea surface temperature (SST) trend patterns. Here, we quantify the relevance of this SST pattern uncertainty to global‐mean temperature projections through ...

“The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics”: Patterning of Patterns [PDF]
In this essay we continue the analysis of effectiveness of mathematics in description of natural phenomena. As was argued previously, the formation of foundations of mathematical thinking, including arithmetic and geometry can be determined to a large extent by the environment and the means of perception and processing of the sensory information about ...

Industrial activity is widely regarded as one of the important sources of air pollution. However, existing studies still debate the complex effects of industrial patterns on air pollution.

Non‐Monotonic Feedback Dependence Under Abrupt CO2 Forcing Due To a North Atlantic Pattern Effect
Effective climate sensitivity (EffCS), commonly estimated from model simulations with abrupt 4×CO2 for 150 years, has been shown to depend on the CO2 forcing level. To understand this dependency systematically, we performed a series of simulations with a
