Anomalous high-magnetic field electronic state of the nematic superconductors FeSe 1 − x S x by Bristow, M, Reiss, P, Haghighirad, A, Zajicek, Z, Singh, S, Wolf, T, Graf, D, Knafo, W, McCollam, A, Coldea, A

“…We find that the nematic state is dominated by a linear resistivity at low temperatures that evolves towards Fermi-liquid behavior, depending on the composition x and the impurity level. Near the nematic end point, we find an extended temperature regime with ∼ T 1.5 resistivity, different from the behavior found near an antiferromagnetic critical point. …”

Visible Range Plasmonic Modes on Topological Insulator Nanostructures by Dubrovkin, Alexander M., Adamo, Giorgio, Yin, Jun, Wang, Lan, Soci, Cesare, Wang, Qi Jie, Zheludev, Nikolay I.

“…Phase-resolved real-space imaging of localized plasmons in Bi1.5Sb0.5Te1.8Se1.2 topological insulator nanostructures is performed by scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy. Dipolar and higher order surface plasmon modes with well-defined field amplitude and phase profiles are detected in the visible part of the spectrum.…”

A review on fall detection systems in bathrooms: challenges and opportunities by Ramanujam, E., Perumal, Thinagaran, Shankar, K.

“…The share of the aged population over and above 65 years increased from 6% in 1990 to 9% in 2019. The percentage of the aged population might increase further to 16% by 2050. …”

RoboTSP - a fast solution to the robotic task sequencing problem by Suárez-Ruiz, Francisco, Lembono, Teguh Santoso, Pham, Quang-Cuong

“…First, we propose a fast, near-optimal, algorithm to solve RTSP. The key to our approach is to exploit the classical distinction between task space and configuration space, which, surprisingly, has been so far overlooked in the RTSP literature. …”

Are Europeans ready for a more democratic European Union? New evidence on preference heterogeneity, polarisation and crosscuttingness by Hale, T, Koenig-Archibugi, M

“…According to the consociational interpretation of the EU, the near absence of competitive and majoritarian elements has been a necessary condition for the stability of the EU political system given its highly diverse population. …”

Distributed model predictive control for active air suspension systems of autonomous vehicles by Wang, Muyun

“…This work examines the Distributed Model Predictive Control (DMPC) strategy for an intelligent car air spring suspension system. The nonlinear properties and complexity of air spring suspension are crucial for enhancing handling stability and ride comfort, although they also provide control challenges for suspension systems. …”

Object level grouping for video shots by Sivic, J, Schaffalitzky, F, Zisserman, A

“…For example, the front and back of a car, or the front and side of a face. In turn this enables object-level matching and recognition throughout a video.…”

SNeS: learning probably symmetric neural surfaces from incomplete data by Insafutdinov, E, Campbell, D, Henriques, JF, Vedaldi, A

“…We evaluate our method on the recently introduced CO3D dataset, focusing on the car category due to the challenge of reconstructing highly-reflective materials. …”

Mechanics of fracture and flexure in Antarctic ice sheets and ice shelves by Zhang, H

“…</p> <br> <p>In Chapter 5, I focus on calving and flexure near the shelf edge. By using a viscoelastic flexure model, I investigate different mechanisms that cause flexure near the calving front, and how the flexure evolves due to viscous creep and leads to calving events.…”

Electrical and optoelectronic studies of semiconductor nanostructures by Wong, Jen It.

“…Electrical and optoelectronic properties of semiconductor nanostructures including silicon nanocrystals (nc-Si) and n-CdSxSe1-x nanowires have been studied in this thesis. Firstly, the current conduction in nc-Si embedded dielectric thin films of a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) device with different nc-Si distributions in the gate oxide (i.e., SiO2) has been investigated. …”
