Water availability is one of the main limiting factors that control ecosystem functions and productivity in semiarid regions. Vegetation of these regions usually presents a patchy distribution where sparse plant cover is...

Based on the framework of thermodynamics and critical state soil mechanics, a new α-β yield surface is formulated in the triaxial space. Based on the non-associated flow rule and bounding surface framework, the propose...

The ability to engineer and shape the phase profile of optical beams is in the heart of any optical element. Be it a simple lens or a sophisticated holographic element, the functionality of such components is dictated by...

Innovative technical solutions to realize optical biosensors with improved performance are continuously proposed. Progress in material fabrication enables developing novel substrates with enhanced optical responses. At t...

On December 16th, 2015, the superconducting gravimeter SG038 started to measure again after it was moved from the previous station in Concepcion, Chile to the Argentine-Germany Geodetic Observatory (AGGO) near the city o...

Tuberculosis (TB) and HIV alter the immune system, and coinfected (HIV-TB) individuals usually present deregulations of T-lymphocytic immune response. We previously observed an increased frequency of “unconventional”...

In this paper, we review and discuss how the recently discovered two-dimensional (2D) Dirac materials, particularly graphene, may be utilized as new efficient platforms for excitations of propagating and localized surfac...

In this work, a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) cathode surface modification by nanoparticle impregnation was carried out. La0.6Sr0.4Co0.8Fe0.2O3-δ (LSCF) ceramic cathodes impregnated with Ce0.8Gd0.2O3-δ (GDC) nanoparticl...
