This paper describes the design of mixed-signal back end for an ultrahigh-frequency sensor-enabled radio-frequency identification transponder in full compliance with the Electronic Product Code Class-1 Generation-2 protocol, ...

Light scattering is a fundamental property that can be exploited to create essential devices such as particle analysers. The most common particle size analyser relies on measuring the angle-dependent diffracted light from ...

In this article, we present a novel explicit time-integration algorithm for the coupled hydromechanical soil mechanics problems in a pseudo-static regime. After introducing the finite element discretization, the semidiscrete ...

For Marc Gispert, the success of this business venture can be credited to its team, ‘to the bonds of friendship that we have forged, which allow us to work non-stop, for hours on end, because we share the same objective’. The ...

En aquest Research Café es presenten projectes on la tecnologia es posa al servei dels mars i els oceans, i que estan lligats amb els objectius ODS Vida Submarina i Acció pel clima.

For over a century, it was thought that the crystalline polymorph II of benzophenone does not possess a stable domain in the pressure–temperature phase diagram. With a combination of new experimental results and literature ...

Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) programming languages, such as Unified Parallel C (UPC), offer an attractive high-productivity programming model for programming large-scale parallel machines. PGAS languages partition ...

Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UASs), together with the miniaturisation of computers, sensors, and electronics, offer new remote sensing applications. However, there is a lack of hardware and software support to effectively ...
