An accurate representation of permeability anisotropy is needed to accurately model the rate and direction of groundwater flow. Wavelet analysis can be used to characterize principal directions of ...

In general, when you measure material properties such as optical permittivity, your measurement doesn’t depend on the direction in which you make it. However, recent research has shown that this is ...

Anisotropy in action: artistic visualization of a propagating heat wave getting weaker as it approaches the top of the layered material, while spreading out in other directions. (Courtesy: ...

It is critical to always be aware of how material anisotropy might affect a design. A case in point is how anisotropy played a part in an individual getting injured when he tried to loosen the ...

For the first time in the world, NIMS and Tohoku University jointly observed an anisotropic magneto-Peltier effect--a thermoelectric conversion phenomenon in which simple redirection of a charge ...
