Substitute locations of urban spaces in films shot in Spain: motivations, representations and consequences by Víctor Aertsen, Carlos Manuel Valdés, Antonio Martínez Puche

“… The objective of the present article is to reflect upon the phenomenon of substitute locations in fiction films, with special focus on Spanish cities. Although the use of one location to stand in for another is a common film practice, it hasn’t received much attention in film studies and related fields. …”

Study of evolution for 3D structured surface with nano-balls and walls-like features with thickness variation for WO3 thin films made by spray deposition by Mirela Petruta Suchea, Ioan Valentin Tudose, Cosmin Romanitan, Cristina Pachiu, Marian Popescu, Kyriakos Mouratis, Marina Manica, Stefan Antohe, Stelios Couris, Dragos Gabriel Zisopol, Octavian Narcis Ionescu, Emmanuel Koudoumas

“…Abstract The present work regards a unique yet study of 3D structured surface evolution of nano-balls and walls-like features with thickness variation, for tungsten oxide (WO3) thin films made by spray deposition. Since in most optoelectronic applications the surface morphology and structure play a crucial role and WO3 is one of the most studied and used metal oxide semiconductors in a significant variety of optoelectronic applications, a detailed study of recently observed and reported unique 3D complex architecture of WO3 coatings fabricated by spray pyrolysis (starting from different precursors) is of great importance for further development of thin film coatings and devices. …”

Gatemonium: A Voltage-Tunable Fluxonium by William M. Strickland, Bassel Heiba Elfeky, Lukas Baker, Andrea Maiani, Jaewoo Lee, Ido Levy, Jacob Issokson, Andrei Vrajitoarea, Javad Shabani

“…One- and two-tone spectroscopy of the gatemonium transitions further reveal details of the hybrid plasmon-fluxon spectrum. Accounting for the nonsinusoidal current-phase relation of the single junction, we fit the measured spectra to extract charging and inductive energies. …”

Experimental Study on Separated-flow Transition on a High-lift Blade by S. Yang, F. Tian, C. Teng, B. Xu

“…The increasing loading level for high-lift blades in low-pressure turbines leads to a laminar separation bubble (LSB) formed on the surface, resulting in a greater profile loss. To obtain a detailed understanding of the flow physics, experiments were conducted at various Reynolds numbers (Re) using complementary hot-wire and hot-film anemometers. …”

Advances in the carbon-ceramic composites oxidation and ablation resistance: A review by Anna Didenko, Alexey Astapov

“…The results of the generalization are presented in the form of tables and schematic images of microstructures of forming oxide films with layer detailing. It is demonstrated that a promising approach for improving developments is the introduction of additional refractory components, which facilitate the formation of solutions with the structure of Me1-xTixO2, Me1-yTayO2+0.5y, Me1-yNbyO2+0.5y, and/or complex compounds such as Me6Ta2O17, Me6Nb2O17 and so on during operation. …”
