Coherent phase slips in coupled matter-wave circuits [PDF]
Quantum phase slips are a dual process of particle tunneling in coherent networks. Besides being of central interest to condensed matter physics, quantum phase slips are resources that are sought to be manipulated in quantum circuits.

Multifunction of Biomimetic Liquid Infused Systems Derived from SLIPS Theory: A Review
Slippery liquid infused porous surface (SLIPS) inspired by the microstructure of carnivorous Nepenthes has the potential to be used in a wide range of fields, including nautical, industrial, medical, etc. Due to their excellent optical transparency, self‐

The Liquid Young’s Law on SLIPS: Liquid–Liquid Interfacial Tensions and Zisman Plots
Slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) are an innovation that reduces droplet-solid contact line pinning and interfacial friction. Recently, it has been shown that a liquid analogue of Young’s law can be deduced for the apparent contact angle of

Frictional Characteristics of Progressively Worn Footwear Outsoles on Slippery Surfaces
Slip and fall related injuries are common in workplaces and sufficient shoe-floor friction is required to prevent such incidents. Besides the presence of slippery contaminants, shoe wearing over time is one of the key factors which may lead to ...

The λ-Point Map between Two Legendre Plane Curves
The λ-point map between two Legendre plane curves, which is a map from the plane into the plane, is introduced. The singularity of this map is studied through this paper and many known plane map singularities are realized as special cases of this ...

Perturbation-based balance training: Principles, mechanisms and implementation in clinical practice
Since the mid-2000s, perturbation-based balance training has been gaining interest as an efficient and effective way to prevent falls in older adults. It has been suggested that this task-specific training approach may present a paradigm shift in fall ...
