The amount of electronic waste (e-waste) recycled worldwide is less than 20% of the total amount produced. In a world where the need for critical and strategic metals is increasing almost exponentially, it is unacceptable that tons of these…
The inter-connection between the elasticity of a dielectric film and the wetting of a sessile drop on the same, under an applied electrical voltage, remains unaddressed. Here, we report the electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) behaviour of…
Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are the primary means to modelling dynamical systems in many natural and engineering sciences. The number of equations required to describe a system with high heterogeneity limits our capability of…
Microelectronics development is critical to a wide number of DOE projects and mission space. Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) and manufacturing Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) are important to…
Reverse engineering tools are required to handle the complexity of software products and the unique requirements of many different tasks, like software analysis and visualization. Thus, reverse engineering tools should adapt to a variety of…
Speden is a computer program that reconstructs the electron density of single particles from their x-ray diffraction patterns, using a single-particle adaptation of the Holographic Method in crystallography. (Szoke, A., Szoke, H., and…
Inverse design through optimization of dielectric photonic devices is a very powerful tool. However so far the direct solver used in the design process is almost always restricted to solve Maxwell's equation in two dimensions (2D). Here we…
The general and practical inversion of diffraction data-producing a computer model correctly representing the material explored - is an important unsolved problem for disordered materials. Such modeling should proceed by using our full…
Free space propagation and conventional optical systems such as lenses and mirrors all perform spatial unitary transforms. However, the subset of transforms available through these conventional systems is limited in scope. We present here a…
Before we can get the whole potential of employing computers in the process of managing mathematical `knowledge', we have to convert informal knowledge into machine-oriented representations. How exactly to support this process so that it…
One of the bottlenecks that limit the transition of transformation-optics devices from concepts to practical use is the non-unit magnetic permeability generally required from a mathematical transformation. Simple renormalization of…
Software development has been changing rapidly. This development process can be influenced through changing developer friendly approaches. We can save time consumption and accelerate the development process if we can automatically guide…
Simultaneous catalytic hydrogen (H2) production and plastic waste degradation under light, known as photoreforming, is a novel approach to green fuel production and efficient waste management. Here, we use a high-entropy oxide (HEO), a new…
Low-cost, resource-constrained, maintenance-free, and energy-harvesting (EH) Internet of Things (IoT) devices, referred to as zero-energy devices (ZEDs), are rapidly attracting attention from industry and academia due to their myriad of…
Image datasets serve as the foundation for machine learning models in computer vision, significantly influencing model capabilities, performance, and biases alongside architectural considerations. Therefore, understanding the composition…
Be it for a malicious or legitimate purpose, packing, a transformation that consists in applying various operations like compression or encryption to a binary file, i.e. for making reverse engineering harder or obfuscating code, is widely…
The drive for reproducibility in the computational sciences has provoked discussion and effort across a broad range of perspectives: technological, legislative/policy, education, and publishing. Discussion on these topics is not new, but…
This article introduces an approach that could tame wireless channels, making their behavior deterministic and software-defined. We investigate the novel idea of HyperSurfaces, which are software-controlled metamaterials embedded in any…
We introduce a class of optical media based on adiabatically modulated, dielectric-only, and potentially extremely low-loss, photonic crystals. The media we describe represent a generalization of the eikonal limit of transformation optics…
We present Virtual Elastic Objects (VEOs): virtual objects that not only look like their real-world counterparts but also behave like them, even when subject to novel interactions. Achieving this presents multiple challenges: not only do…
