Numerical implementation of a theory yields acoustic wave packets whose peak-to-peak speeds, $c_{3d}$, are supersonic in a dispersionless medium due to temporal interference between direct and boundary-reflected paths. The effect occurs…
Thin liquid films with floating active protein machines are considered. Cyclic mechanical motions within the machines, representing microscopic swimmers, lead to molecular propulsion forces applied to the air-liquid interface. We show that,…
Charge redistribution at high-Tc superconductor interfaces and grain boundaries on the one hand is problematic for technological application. On the other hand, it gives rise to a great perspective for tailoring the local electronic states.…
A technique of hyperbolic scaling is applied to calculate a reaction front velocity in an irreversible autocatalytic conversion reaction $A+B\,\rightarrow\, 2A$ under subdiffusion. The method, based on the geometric optics approach is a…
We revisit the problem of the dynamic response of a superconducting bridge after abruptly switching on the supercritical current $I>I_c$. In contrast to previous theoretical works we take into account spatial gradients and use both the…
We present a percolation theory for the high-$T_c$ oxides pseudogap and $T_c$ dependence on the hole level. The doping dependent inhomogeneous charge structure is modeled by a distribution which may represent the stripe morphology and yield…
Numerical methods are developed to simulate the wave propagation in heterogeneous 2D fluid / poroelastic media. Wave propagation is described by the usual acoustics equations (in the fluid medium) and by the low-frequency Biot's equations…

This paper is concerned with the traveling wave solutions and asymptotic spreading of delayed lattice differential equations without quasimonotonicity. The spreading speed is obtained by constructing auxiliary equations and using the theory…
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…
Superconducting heterostructures with spin-active materials have emerged as promising platforms for engineering topological superconductors featuring Majorana bound states at surfaces, edges and vortices. Here we present a method for…
In this thesis, we have studied the evolution of superconductivity in amorphous Molybdenum Germanium ($\textit{a}$-MoGe) thin films. The work can be broken down into two parts. In the first part, we investigate the effect of decreasing…
The highly confined flow of the liquid phase, trapped between the gas bubbles, is at the origin of the large effective viscosity of the liquid foams. Despite the industrial relevance of this complex fluid, the foam viscosity remains…
Epitaxial semiconductor-superconductor heterostructures are promising as a platform for gate-tunable superconducting electronics. Thus far, the superconducting properties in such hybrid systems have been predicted based on simplified…
Understanding thermal transport in silicon nanostructures is crucial for effective thermal management in semiconductor devices. In such nanostructures, boundary scattering can significantly reduce thermal conductivity. Diffusive boundary…
It is shown how the static and dynamic electromagnetic properties can be calculated for thin flat superconducting films of any shape and size, also multiply connected as used for SQUIDs, and for any value of the effective magnetic London…
A semi-analytical model for studying thermal transport at the nanoscale, able to accurately describe both the effect of out of equilibrium transport and the thermal transfer at interfaces, is presented. Our approach is based on the…
We present a novel method enabling precise post-fabrication modulation of the electrical resistance in micrometer-scale regions of amorphous indium oxide (a-InO$_x$) films. By subjecting initially insulating films to an electron beam at…
We investigate flux penetration in a disordered type II superconductor by molecular dynamics simulations of interacting vortices. We focus on the effect of different boundary conditions on the scaling laws for flux front propagation. The…
A new class of artificial atoms, such as synthetic nanocrystals or vortices in superconductors, naturally self-assemble into ordered arrays. This property makes them applicable to the design of novel solids, and devices whose properties…
