Quo Vadis Quasicrystals?

open access: yesCrystals, 2017
This Special Issue aims at gaining a deeper understanding on the relationship between the underlying structural order and the resulting physical properties in aperiodic systems, including quasicrystalline and related complex metallic alloys, photonic ...

Patterning the Void: Combining L‐Systems with Archimedean Tessellations as a Perspective for Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel multi‐scale scaffold design using L‐fractals arranged in Archimedean tessellations for tissue regeneration. Despite similar porosity, tiles display vastly different tensile responses (1–100 MPa) and deformation modes. In vitro experiments with hMSCs show geometry‐dependent growth and activity. Over 55 000 tile combinations

Aperiodic topological order in the domain configurations of functional materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Domains and domain walls are relevant for the engineering of materials functionalities. In this Review, a new classification scheme for topological domain configurations is presented and applied to several materials, including multiferroics ...

Regularity of aperiodic minimal subshifts

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Sciences, 2017
At the turn of this century Durand, and Lagarias and Pleasants established that key features of minimal subshifts (and their higher-dimensional analogues) to be studied are linearly repetitive, repulsive and power free.

Golden‐Ratio–Guided Aperiodic Architected Metamaterials with Simultaneously Enhanced Strength and Toughness

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the golden ratio, a class of aperiodic architected metamaterials is introduced to address the intrinsic trade‐off between strength and toughness. By unifying local geometric heterogeneity with global order, the golden‐ratio‐guided aperiodic architecture promotes spatial delocalization of damage tolerence regions, leading to more tortuous ...

The Wire Is Not the Territory: Understanding Representational Drift in Olfaction With Dynamical Systems Theory

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Representational drift is a phenomenon of increasing interest in the cognitive and neural sciences. While investigations are ongoing for other sensory cortices, recent research has demonstrated the pervasiveness in which it occurs in the piriform cortex for olfaction.

Two Distinct Phonon Wave Effects Control Thermal Transport across the Coherent–Incoherent Regime in Superlattices

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Thermal transport in smooth‐interface superlattices is studied using the phonon Wigner transport equation, which captures both particle‐like and wave‐like contributions. A minimum in cross‐plane thermal conductivity emerges with increasing period thickness, signaling a crossover from coherent to incoherent phonon transport.

High-Impedance Surfaces with Aperiodically-Ordered Textures [PDF]

open access: yes2007 International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications, 2007
This paper deals with a study of textured (mushroom-type) high-impedance substrates based on aperiodic-tiling geometries. In this connection, preliminary results from full-wave simulations are presented in order to explore possible applications as artificial-magnetic-conductor ground-planes for low-profile directive antennas.

From the Fibonacci Icosagrid to E8 (Part II): The Composite Mapping of the Cores

open access: yesCrystals
This paper is part of a series that describes the Fibonacci icosagrid quasicrystal (FIG) and its relation to the E8 root lattice. The FIG was originally constructed to represent the intersection points of an icosahedrally symmetric collection of planar ...
