Induction is one of the important methods of reasoning in logic. It starts from specific observations and measures to detect patterns and regularities, then formulates some tentati...

Hydrogels offer new opportunities for human-machine interactions, owing to their inherent similarities to human tissues (e.g. high water content, superior compliance, and biocompat...

This presentation will discuss the applications of the phase-field method to understanding and discovering new mesoscale polar states that might emerge from nanoscale ferroelectric...

The ability to electrically write magnetic bits is highly desirable for future magnetic memories and spintronic devices, though fully deterministic, reversible, and nonvolatile swi...

By means of the associated equivalence algebra and the first integral method, we convert partial differential equations into an overdetermined system from which the bounded traveli...

Based in Aberdeen, the “Energy Capital of Europe, from our recent research collaborations with some major energy industries, and the experience chairing the 1st-9th International ...

We show that a smooth giant voltage actuation of soft dielectric plates can be obtained, in principle, by exploiting the snap-through behaviour of the voltage-stretch loading curve...

The presentation addresses technical activities on propulsion systems for satellite and launchers, and some applications of small satellites for earth observation and science missi...

The context of the seminar is friction drag exerted by turbulent boundary layers on walls. This is a topic of major interest in aeronautical trasport, and much research is underway...
