Affine connection control systems are mechanical control systems that model a wide range of real systems such as robotic legs, hovercrafts, planar rigid bodies, rolling pennies, snakeboards and so on. In 1997 the accessibility ...

Adobe masonry is one of the oldest construction systems still in use today, Mexico has an enormous cultural heritage with traditional adobe houses being very representative of the rural communities and their culture. The ...

Crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cells can be considered a highly industrialized and mature product with a record conversion efficiency of 26.6%, not far from the practical limit of 29.4% (for single p/n junction devices). ...

Visual opsins are G protein-coupled receptors that function as light photoreceptors in the vertebrate retina. Rhodopsin is the visual pigment located in the rod photoreceptor cells specialized in scotopic vision. Bovine ...

The urgent need of changes in the human behavior regarding the environment is an exploding area of investigation, especially for material sciences. The reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions is one of the main ...
