The pore water pressure in the vadose zone is controlled by the interaction between the soil and the atmosphere through evaporation and infiltration. These processes are strongly influenced by the soil's hydraulic conductivity and water retention properties (Guida et al., 2023). In this ... Per saperne di più
Clayey soils and rocks are often used to secure contaminants, dissolved in the interstitial water, or fluids immiscible with water, because of their hydraulic properties (very low permeability and high water retention capabilities, see e.g. McCartney et al., 2016). However, their hydro ... Per saperne di più
The exact moment approach (EMA) is adopted to predict, without any fitting parameters, the plate height curves for polystyrene microparticles of different sizes in micropillar array columns performed by hydrodynamic chromatography. The EMA allows us to decouple the contribution of ... Per saperne di più
The intestine, a muscular, tubular organ within the digestive system is responsible for the final stages of food processing. The cyclic material transport generates a shear stress on the intestinal lining known as epithelium. Recently, the application of shear stress on epithelial cells ... Per saperne di più
Soil sedimentation and consolidation, whether they are naturally or anthropically driven processes, are closely interconnected. While theoretical models are available to separately describe the behaviour of either ‘fluid’ suspensions or ‘solid’ soil, no well-established unified theory ... Per saperne di più
Capturing microstructure details is essential to investigate transport of species and reactions taking place at the micro-scale level in a cathode catalyst layer of a PEM fuel cell. To this end, a three-dimensional geometry of the microstructure is generally created/reconstructed using ... Per saperne di più
Lithium niobate (LiNbO3) possesses unique combination of material properties such as: high electro-optic and elasto-optic coefficients and strong piezoelectricity, enabling integration of optical and acoustic functionalities within a single material, paving the way for advanced ...

Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations are vital in the design of loudspeakers, providing an efficient alternative to traditional trial-and-error methods. This study aims to advance the understanding and optimization of loudspeaker design focusing particularly on the influence of ... Per saperne di più
Lithium-ion batteries are leading the electrification transition, particularly within the transport sector. However, numerous challenges still remain, with fast charging emerging as a major concern. To speed up research, physics-based models are frequently employed alongside experimental ... Per saperne di più
During the hot extrusion process, a cylindrical pre-heated billet is inserted into a container and is forced by a hydraulic press to flow through a shaped die in order to obtain, as final product, a profile with a constant cross-section (Fig.1). Aluminum extrudates have become prominent ... Per saperne di più
