Quantum vortex reconnections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study reconnections of quantum vortices by numerically solving the governing Gross-Pitaevskii equation. We find that the minimum distance between vortices scales differently with time before and after the vortex reconnection.

Hierarchical Artificial Muscle with Nonlinear Elasticity for Antagonistic and Cyclic Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We construct hierarchical muscles by plying nylon fibers around a heating wire. The hierarchical muscle shows a J‐shaped passive curve, which shows benefit in antagonistic muscle pair and work accumulation mechanism. We also develop a computational, first‐principle model to understand the physics of both active actuation stroke and passive J‐curve ...

Convective thermal and concentration transfer effects in hydromagnetic peristaltic transport with Ohmic heating

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2017
The primary theme of this communication is to employ convective condition of mass transfer in the theory of peristalsis. The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic transport of viscous liquid in an asymmetric channel was considered for this purpose ...

Topological nature of polarization and charge pumping in ferroelectrics

open access: yes, 2004
Electric polarization or transferred charge due to an adiabatic change of external parameters $\vec{Q}$ is expressed in terms of a vector field defined in the $\vec{Q}$ space.

Self‐Sensing Artificial‐Muscle‐Empowered Humanlike Perception, Interaction, and Positioning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
The proposed self‐sensorized artificial muscle (SSAM) can sense its length change as small as 0.01 mm via a seamlessly integrated multi‐segment induction coil. The SSAM provides accurate length information regardless of its loadings, driving pressure, or muscle design, adequate for robust data‐driven feedback control.

Numerical simulation for thermal radiative flow of tangent hyperbolic nanofluid due to Riga plate in the presence of joule heating

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2023
In this paper, numerical simulation for the two-dimensional flow of tangent hyperbolic fluid in the manifestation of nanoparticles, heat source and joule heating is considered. For motivation of problem, the role of Riga plate is investigated.

Can one hear the shape of a saturation patch?

open access: yes, 2002
The theory of the acoustics of patchy-saturation in porous media is used to analyze experimental data on wave velocity and attenuation in partially water saturated limestones. It is demonstrated that the theory can be used to deduce the value of V/A, the
