Temperature effects on the electronic properties of lead telluride (PbTe) and the influence of nano-size precipitates on the performance of thermoelectric materials. (SrTe precipitates in PbTe bulk material)
… carrier mobility was studied by finding out the relative alignment of energy bands at the semiconductor heterojunction. The crystal shape of the SrTe precipitates in the PbTe host matrix was evaluated from the interface energies using the Wulffman construction. We also attempted to develop a …

Scalable self-calibrating display technology for seamless large-scale displays
… to enable the correction of imperfections in the alignment, optical system, and fabrication of very high-resolution display devices. The key idea relies on the measurement of relative alignment, rotation, optical distortion, and intensity gradients of an aggregated set of low-cost image display …

Superlattices and quantum spin Hall states in graphene and hexagonal boron nitride heterostructures
… made from graphene and hBN. Depending on the relative alignment, or "twist", between the layers, a crystal of hBN can be either a non-perturbing substrate for the graphene, or a method to induce a band gap and superlattice potential for the graphene electrons. In the case of two stacked …

Characterization of the Neutron Irradiation System for use in the Low-Dose-Rate Irradiation Facility at Sandia National Laboratories
… for the three component sources and their relative alignment within the Special Form Capsule (SFC) was inadequate. The system consisting of the source and shielding was modeled using Monte Carlo N-Particle transport code (MCNP). The model was validated by benchmarking it against …

SDTDMn0 : a multidimensional distributed data mining framework supporting time series data analysis for critical care research
Premature birth is one of the major perinatal health issues across the world. In 2007, the estimated Canadian preterm birth rate was 8.1 % (CIHI, 2009). Recent research has shown that conditions, such as nosocomial infections or apnoeas, exhibit certain variations in the baby's physiological …

Anatomy, Implant Selection and Placement Influence Spine Mechanics Associated with Total Disc Replacement
… modeling approach quantified shape and alignment variation of the lumbar spine by characterizing variability of shape and size of individual vertebra, relative alignment of relevant segments, and overall anatomy of the lumbar spine. Statistical shape models of single vertebrae revealed …

Collective dynamics in flowing suspensions of swimming micro-organisms
… of turbulent flows also occur, namely: (i) the alignment of the vorticity vector with the intermediate strain-rate eigenvector, and (ii) the bias of Q–R plots toward second and fourth quadrants, corresponding to stable focus/stretching and unstable node/saddle/saddle topologies, respectively. …

An investigation of the effects of shearfree deformation and the role of miscibility on the structure and properties of in situ thermoplastic composites
… TLCP fibers developed in the PEI/HX1000 system relative to the PEI/Vectra A system. In addition, both blends showed a maximum in the tensile modulus at 90 wt% TLCP. Rheological tests indicated that for TLCP-rich compositions, a higher viscosity was observed for the blends in comparison to the …
