A large number of 3D spectral descriptors have been proposed in the literature, which act as an essential component for 3D deformable shape matching and related applications. An outstanding descriptor ...

Catalytic transformation of levulinic acid (LA) to γ-valerolactone (γ-GVL) is an important route for biomass upgradation. Because both Bro̷nsted and Lewis acidic sites are required in the cascade ...

The aspect ratio (AR) of filler particles is one of the most critical determinants for the mechanical properties of particle-reinforced polymer composites. However, it has been challenging to solely ...

In this paper, we present a systematic study of the role of metal/semiconductor nanowire (NW) contact in back-gated Ge and Si NW Schottky-barrier (SB) FETs. Our results show that the performance of ...

Scientists from the federally funded Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois and the University of Virginia have developed a new approach for detecting defects in metal parts produced by 3D printing.
