Organic semiconducting polymers are a popular topic of research for their use in electronics, such as organic field effect transistors (OFETs) and solar cells. Relative to inorganic semiconductors, organic semiconductors ...

The pace of publication in the sciences has long since outstripped human ability to read and synthesize information. While interdisciplinary work can mitigate some of this burden, there remain fundamental questions about ...

Video-based Automatic Incident Detection (AID) technologies have been used in the past by Traffic Management Agencies to aid Incident Management. While significant improvements in video quality and computing resources have ...

On September 14, 2015, the earth was witness to one of universe’s loudest cataclysmic events: the collision of two black holes. The collision resulted in a perturbation in the very fabric of space time - a Gravitational ...

Electric propulsion is an alternative means for spacecraft to execute orbital maneuvers and provide attitude control in space. Electric propulsion devices generate thrust by electrically converting a neutral gas into a ...

Here we present an ab-initio approach for predicting the genetic code of an anonymous prokaryotic DNA sequence. To the best of our knowledge it is the first tool of such kind. In times of metagenomics more and more ...

As we age, we walk slower and expend more energy which can limit our independence and quality of life. The root cause may be reduced Achilles tendon stiffness, which causes calf muscles to operate at shorter lengths and ...

Minimally invasive systemic drug delivery in the brain offers several advantages over conventional invasive approaches (e.g. Ommaya reservoir). However, effective delivery still remains a major challenge. This is due to ...

The rapid rise of self-driving cars and drones has raised questions about the safety of autonomous robotics deployed in society. This is due to the large numbers of system state variables involved, the resulting degraded ...
