In this paper we address a fundamental question in communication, that is, in the presence of various noise scenarios such as white/colored Gaussian noise and impulsive -type noises, how to efficiently and accurately transmit a set of…
Topography evolution of Si(100) surface due to oblique incidence low energy ion beam sputtering (IBS) is investigated. Experiments were carried out at different elevated temperatures from 20$^{\circ}$C to 450$^{\circ}$C and at each…
Recently, diffusion models have shown remarkable results in image synthesis by gradually removing noise and amplifying signals. Although the simple generative process surprisingly works well, is this the best way to generate image data? For…

The penetration of projectiles into granular materials has been mainly studied using spherical intruders. Here we explore the dynamics of rods penetrating vertically in a two-dimensional granular bed composed of expanded polystyrene…
Filaments are ubiquitous within the microscopic world. They occur frequently in both biological and industrial environments and display varied and rich dynamics. Their wide range of applications has spurred the development of a special…
The 3D Gaussian splatting methods are getting popular. However, they work directly on the signal, leading to a dense representation of the signal. Even with some techniques such as pruning or distillation, the results are still dense. In…

A new ocean wave/sea-ice interaction model is proposed that simulates how a directional wave spectrum evolves as it travels through an arbitrary finite array of circular ice floes, where wave/ice dynamics are entirely governed by wave…
A millimetre-size superhydrophobic sphere impacting on the free surface of a quiescent bath can be propelled back into the air by capillary effects and dynamic fluid forces, whilst transferring part of its energy to the fluid. We report the…
Spatio-temporal extensions of familiar compartment models for disease transmission incorporating diffusive behavior, or interactions between individuals at separate locations, are explored. The models considered have the character of…
Pour sand into a container and only the grains near the top surface move. The collective motion associated with the translational and rotational energy of the grains in a thin flowing layer is quickly dissipated as friction through…
Granular media (e.g., cereal grains, plastic resin pellets, and pills) are ubiquitous in robotics-integrated industries, such as agriculture, manufacturing, and pharmaceutical development. This prevalence mandates the accurate and efficient…
We study the behavior of cylindrical objects as they sink into a drygranular bed fluidized due to lateral oscillations. Somewhat unexpectedly, we have found that, within a large range of lateral shaking powers,cylinders with flat bottoms…
Foam is an industrially important form of matter, commonly deployed to clean objects and even our own skin, thanks to its ability to absorb oil and particles into its interior. To clean a large area, a foam is spread over a substrate, but…
Much of the Earth and many surfaces of extraterrestrial bodies are composed of in-cohesive particle matter. Locomoting on granular terrain is challenging for common robotic devices, either wheeled or legged. In this work, we discover a…
