A Simulative Evaluation of Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Structures in the Context of Elastocaloric Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A simulative evaluation of triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structures for an elastocaloric application under compressive load is performed. For the evaluation of the structure's performance, surface/volume ratio, generated heat and invested mechanical work are taken into account and are compared to a tube as a reference specimen.

From the Discovery of the Giant Magnetocaloric Effect to the Development of High‐Power‐Density Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The article overviews past and current efforts on caloric materials and systems, highlighting the contributions of Ames National Laboratory to the field. Solid‐state caloric heat pumping is an innovative method that can be implemented in a wide range of cooling and heating applications.

Cu3SbSe3‐Alloying‐Induced High Thermoelectric Performance and Mechanical Robustness in Bi2Te3‐Based Thermoelectric Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Combining microstructural engineering with Cu3SbSe3 alloying significantly improves the performance of Bi2Te3‑based thermoelectric materials, yielding a high zT of ≈1.45 (average zT ≈1.3 over 303–503 K), excellent mechanical robustness (Vickers hardness of 96 Hv and compressive strength of 187 MPa), and an impressive conversion efficiency of ≈6.9% at a

The regularity problem for geodesics of the control distance

open access: yesBruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2018
In this survey, we present some recent results on the problem about the regularity of length-minimizing curves in sub-Riemannian geometry. We also sketch the possible application of some ideas coming from Geometric Measure Theory.

Investigating di‐n‐Butylcalcium

open access: yesChemistryEurope, EarlyView.
A detailed synthetic, crystallographic, and spectroscopic investigation demonstrates that the hitherto elusive di‐n‐butylcalcium is accessible and stable at low temperature, and can be used for deprotometallation reactions. The synthesis and detailed characterization by NMR spectroscopy of di‐n‐butylcalcium are reported. The reaction of [Ca{N(SiMe3)2}2.

Synthesis of Cyclobutenoates From Photochemical Rearrangement of α‐Diazo Cyclopropanes and Computational Studies

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The ring expansion of α‐cyclopropyl diazoacetates into cyclobutenoates upon irradiation at 425 nm was reported in moderate to excellent yields (17% to 75%) and moderate to good regioisomeric ratio (55:45 to 82:18). The formation of two regioisomers was explained using DFT calculations as well as the involvement of a singlet state carbene.

Two characterization of BV functions on Carnot groups via the heat semigroup

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we provide two different characterizations of sets with finite perimeter and functions of bounded variation in Carnot groups, analogous to those which hold in Euclidean spaces, in terms of the short-time behaviour of the heat semigroup. The

Integral Representation of Local Left–Invariant Functionals in Carnot Groups

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2019
The aim of this note is to prove a representation theorem for left–invariant functionals in Carnot groups. As a direct consequence, we can also provide a Г-convergence result for a smaller class of functionals.

Geodesics and isometries of Carnot groups

open access: yesKyoto Journal of Mathematics, 2003
The author proves that an isometry of a two-step Carnot group which fixes the identity is an automorphism of the nilpotent Lie group and derives from previously known results that the same holds for all Carnot groups, i.e. nilpotent Lie groups with left-invariant sub-Riemannian metrics.
