Microstructure Control for Thin Film Metallization
A strategy was developed for controlling hillock formation in thin metal films by controlling the fiber texture to be of a relatively “weak” orientation. Two-dimensional molecular dynamics (MD) simulations wer...

“You are what you eat”: Diet modifies cuticular hydrocarbons and nestmate recognition in the Argentine ant, Linepithema humile
Nestmate recognition plays a key role in the behavior and evolution of social insects. We demonstrated that hydrocarbons are the chemical cues used in Argentine ant, Linepithema humile, nestmate recognition, and...

Colony disassociation following diet partitioning in a unicolonial ant
Discriminating nestmates from alien conspecifics via chemical cues is recognized as a critical element in maintaining the integrity of insect societies. We determined, in laboratory experiments, that nestmate...

An ELLAM Approximation for Highly Compressible Multicomponent Flows in Porous Media
We develop an ELLAM-MFEM approximation to the strongly coupled systems of time-dependent nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) and constraining equations, which describe fully miscible, highly compre...

Cellular neural network to detect spurious vectors in PIV data
This paper proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) method to effectively detect spurious velocity vectors in a velocity field measured by particle image velocimetry (PIV). The neural network is a recurren...
