      Low volume resistivity and high transmittance. Double-layered structures consisting of very thin layer of conventional indium tin oxide (In2O3-10 mass % SnO2) and indium saving indium-tin oxide (In2O3-50 mass % SnO2) layer ...
    • Videla Marió, Javier; Contreras Rojas, Felipe; Nguyen, Hoang; Atroshchenko, Elena (Elsevier, 2020)
      In this work, we present an eXtended Geometry Independent Field approximaTion (X-GIFT) formulation for cracked Kirchhoff-Love plates. The plate geometry is modeled by Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) while the solution ...

      Tributary-junction alluvial fans situated at the intersection of confined valleys with <100 km(2) tributary catchments are of special interest to evaluate the heterogeneous consequences of extreme rainfall events in arid ...
    • Baug, T.; Wang, Ke; Liu, Tie; Tang, Mengyao; Zhang, Qizhou; Li, Di; Eswaraiah, Chakali; Liu, Sheng-Yuan; Tej, Anandmayee; Goldsmith, Paul; Bronfman Aguiló, Leonardo; Qin, Sheng-Li; Toth, Viktor; Li, Pak-Shing; Kim, Kee-Tae (IOP Publishing, 2020)
      We present a statistical study of the orientation of outflows with respect to large-scale filaments and magnetic fields. Although filaments are widely observed toward Galactic star-forming regions, the exact role of filaments ...
    • Dinamarca, Robinson B.; Espinoza González, Rodrigo; Campos, Cristian; Pecchi, Gina (Walter De Gruyter GMBH, 2020)
      This study reports the catalytic preparation, characterization, and evaluation of nanoscale coreshell structures with a gamma-Fe2O3 core covered by a SiO(2 )monoshell or by a SiO2@TiO2 multishell as a support for Pt ...
    • Newman, Andrew B.; Rudie, Gwen C.; Blanc Mendiberri, Guillermo; Kelson, Daniel; Rhoades, Sunny; Hare, Tyson; Pérez, Victoria; Benson, Andrew J.; Dressler, Alan; González Corvalán, Valentino; Kollmeier, Juna A.; Konidaris, Nicholas P.; Mulchaey, John S.; Rauch, Michael; Le Fevre, Olivier; Lemaux, Brian C.; Cucciati, Olga; Lilly, Simon J. (IOP, 2020)
      We introduce LATIS, the Ly alpha Tomography IMACS Survey, a spectroscopic survey at Magellan designed to map the z = 2.2-2.8 intergalactic medium (IGM) in three dimensions by observing the Ly alpha forest in the spectra ...
    • Figueroa Morales, Nuris; Rivera, Aramis; Soto Bertrán, Rodrigo; Lindner, Anke; Altshuler, Ernesto; Clement, Eric (Amer Assoc Advancement Science, 2020)
      One notable feature of bacterial motion is their ability to swim upstream along corners and crevices, by leveraging hydrodynamic interactions. This motion through anatomic ducts or medical devices might be at the origin ...
    • Grana, Manuel; Wozniak, Michal; Ríos Pérez, Sebastián; de Lope, Javier (MDPI, 2020)
      Computational intelligence is a very active and fruitful research of artificial intelligence with a broad spectrum of applications. Remote sensing data has been a salient field of application of computational intelligence ...
    • Protter, Philip; Qiu, Lisha; San Martin Aristegui, Jaime (Elsevier, 2020)
      In traditional works on numerical schemes for solving stochastic differential equations (SDEs), the globally Lipschitz assumption is often assumed to ensure different types of convergence. In practice, this is often too ...
    • Manríquez, Fabián; Pérez, Javier; Morales Varela, Nelson (Springer, 2020)
      Mine operations are supported by a short-term production schedule, which defines where and when mining activities are performed. However, deviations can be observed in this short-term production schedule because of several ...
    • Soto, Ismael; Nilson Rodrigues, Rafael; Massuyama, Gabriel; Seguel, Fabián; Palacios Játiva, Pablo; Azurdia Meza, César; Krommenacker, Nicolás (MDPI, 2020)
      In this manuscript we propose a hybrid Visible Light Communication and Radio Frequency (VLC-RF) scheme for the implementation of a portable Phaser Measurement Unit (PMU) for deep underground tunnels. Through computer ...
    • Peña, J.; Fuentes, C.; Forster, F.; Martínez Palomera, J.; Cabrera Vives, G.; Maureira, J. C.; Huijse, P.; Estévez, P. A.; Galbany, L.; González Gaitán, S.; de Jaeger, Th. (IOP, 2020)
      We report the observations of solar system objects during the 2015 campaign of the High cadence Transient Survey (HiTS). We found 5740 bodies (mostly Main Belt asteroids), 1203 of which were detected in different nights ...
    • Nesseris, Savvas; Sapone, Domenico; Sypsas, Spyros (Elsevier, 2020)
      If light enough primordial black holes (PBH) account for dark matter, then its density decreases with time as they lose mass via Hawking radiation. We show that this time-dependence of the matter density can be formulated ...
    • Cabello Guzmán, G.; Caro Díaz, C.; Fernández Pérez, A.; Buono-Core, G. E.; Chornik, B. (Elsevier, 2020)
      In this study we report significant enhancement of up-conversion emissions of La2O3:Er thin films when they are co-doped with Er/Ln (where Ln = Nd or Ho). The proposed mechanisms by which the Ln ions contribute to these ...
