Hypothesis In photorheological fluids, subtle molecular changes caused by light lead to abrupt macroscopic alterations. Upon UV irradiation of an aqueous cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and

A solid–liquid self-adaptive composite (SAC) is synthesized using a simple mixing–evaporation protocol, with poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) as active constituents. SAC exists as

Here, we report the scalable synthesis and characterization of low-density, porous, three-dimensional (3D) solids consisting of two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) sheets. The structures

3D interconnected carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are synthesized using an industrially scalable spark plasma technique. At high electric field and elevated temperature under sufficient stress the

Graphyne is a planar two-dimensional carbon allotrope formed by atoms in sp, sp2, and sp3 hybridized states. Topologically graphyne nanotubes (GNTs) can be considered as

The liquid inside a solid material is one of the most common composite materials in nature. The interface between solid–liquid plays an important role in

Here we report a combined study of experiments and simulations to understand how chemical functional groups can mechanically stabilize aggregates of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Ultralow

A facile route toward functionalized amphiphilic layered transition-metal dichalcogenide nanosheets through in situ polymerization of polystyrene–polyacrylamide copolymers is established. The attachment of copolymers greatly affects

Computation offloading is a programming model in which program fragments (e.g. hot loops) are annotated so that their execution is performed in dedicated hardware or

Thread-LevelSpeculation(TLS)isahardware/softwaretech- nique that enables the execution of multiple loop iterations in parallel, even in the presence of some loop-carried dependences. TLS requires hardware mechanisms to

When a compiler cannot prove that a loop can be executed in parallel but it can estimate with high probability that the loop iterations will

Given their massively parallel computing capabilities heterogeneous architectures comprised of CPUs and accelerators have been increasingly used to speed-up scientific and engineering applications. Nevertheless, programming
