Active boundary layers in confined active nematics [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2022 The boundary of conventional liquid crystals is known to anchor the orientational field of the passive materials under equilibrium conditions. Here, the authors show an active nematic to develop active boundary layers that topologically polarize the ...

Vapour phase growth and grain boundary structure of molybdenum disulphide atomic layers [PDF]
Nature Materials, 2013 Single-layered molybdenum disulphide with a direct bandgap is a promising two-dimensional material that goes beyond graphene for the next generation of nanoelectronics. Here, we report the controlled vapour phase synthesis of molybdenum disulphide atomic

Stable Boundary Layers and Subfilter-Scale Motions
Atmosphere, 2023 Recent high-resolution large-eddy simulations (LES) of a stable atmospheric boundary layer (SBL) with mesh sizes N=(5123,10243,20483) or mesh spacings ▵=(0.78,0.39,0.2) m are analyzed.

Orthogonal series approximation for boundary layers [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2004 In this paper we shall consider a class of singularly perturbed problems described by the ordinary differential equation of second order with small parameter multiplying the highest derivative and the appropriate boundary conditions, which describes ...

Superfluid Boundary Layer [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2017 We model the superfluid flow of liquid helium over the rough surface of a wire (used to experimentally generate turbulence) profiled by atomic force microscopy. Numerical simulations of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation reveal that the sharpest features in the surface induce vortex nucleation both intrinsically (due to the raised local fluid velocity) and ...

On Long-Range Characteristic Length Scales of Shell Structures
Eng, 2023 Shell structures have a rich family of boundary layers including internal layers. Each layer has its own characteristic length scale, which depends on the thickness of the shell.

On the computation of planetary boundary-layer height using the bulk Richardson number method [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2014 Experimental data from four field campaigns are used to explore the variability of the bulk Richardson number of the entire planetary boundary layer (PBL), Ribc, which is a key parameter for calculating the PBL height (PBLH) in numerical weather and ...
