Impact of Acoustic and Optical Phonons on the Anisotropic Heat Conduction in Novel C-Based Superlattices by Talwar, Devki N., Becla, Piotr

“…In commercial NEDs, heat dissipation and thermal management have been and still are crucial issues. The concept of phonon engineering is important for manipulating thermal transport in low-dimensional heterostructures to study their lattice dynamical features. …”

Wave Mechanics in Constructed Oyster Reefs and the Design of Nature-Based Coastal Adaptation by Brice, James Vincent

“…There has been great interest in the potential of constructed oyster reefs (CORs) to function as nature-based coastal protection infrastructure, but most projects to-date are designed primarily for wave attenuation and fail to consider both the environmental conditions necessary for long-term oyster reef sustainability as well as the importance of education and outreach in fostering environmental stewardship. …”

Fluids and Electrolytes under Confinement in Single-Digit Nanopores

“…Existing theories often fail to predict the exotic effects observed in the narrowest of such pores, called single-digit nanopores (SDNs), which have diameters or conduit widths of less than 10 nm, and have only recently become accessible for experimental measurements. What SDNs reveal has been surprising, including a rapidly increasing number of examples such as extraordinarily fast water transport, distorted fluid-phase boundaries, strong ion-correlation and quantum effects, and dielectric anomalies that are not observed in larger pores. …”

Urban site characterization using DAS dark fibers on the MIT campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts by Chang, Hilary, Nakata, Nori

“…In this paper, we introduce our five-day student-led DAS experiment using dark fibers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology campus in the city of Cambridge. The campus has been identified as an area that is highly susceptible to seismic hazards due to subsurface structure and soil properties. …”

Hardness of Approximate Diameter: Now for Undirected Graphs by Dalirrooyfard, Mina, Li, Ray, Vassilevska Williams, Virginia

“…A simple folklore algorithm can output a 2-approximation to the diameter in linear time by running BFS from an arbitrary vertex. It has been open whether a better approximation is possible in near-linear time. …”

Sitetack: a deep learning model that improves PTM prediction by using known PTMs by Gutierrez, Clair S, Kassim, Alia A, Gutierrez, Benjamin D, Raines, Ronald T

“…Motivation Post-translational modifications (PTMs) increase the diversity of the proteome and are vital to organismal life and therapeutic strategies. Deep learning has been used to predict PTM locations. Still, limitations in datasets and their analyses compromise success. …”
