Zhu, Z. (author), Zhang, Y. (author), Min, Changjun (author), Adam, A.J.L. (author), Urbach, Paul (author), Yuan, Xiaocong (author)Optical tweezers have proved to be a powerful tool with a wide range of applications. The gradient force plays a vital role in the stable optical trapping of nano-objects. The scalar method is convenient and effective for analyzing the gradient force in traditional optical trapping. However, when the third-order nonlinear effect of the nano...journal article 2024

Wang, S. (author), Zhu, Xiaoning (author), Shang, Pan (author), Lin, X. (author), Yang, Liya (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author)The considerable increase in parcel deliveries has negatively impacted the accessibility and livability of cities. One solution strategy is to decouple short-distance from long-distance shipping so that last-mile transport can be performed with low-footprint vehicles. Such solutions are referred to in the literature as multi-echelon...journal article 2024

(author), Lofverstrom, Marcus (author)The Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, from ∼26 to 20 ka BP) was the most recent period with large ice sheets in Eurasia and North America. At that time, global temperatures were 5–7 ∘C lower than today, and sea level ∼125 m lower. LGM simulations are useful to understand earth system dynamics, including climate–ice sheet interactions, and to evaluate...journal article 2024
