The microcanonical thermodynamics of finite systems: The microscopic origin of condensation and phase separations; and the conditions for heat flow from lower to higher temperatures

open access: yes, 2005
Microcanonical thermodynamics allows the application of statistical mechanics both to finite and even small systems and also to the largest, self-gravitating ones.

Experimental Evaluation of 100Cr6 Steel Microindented Surfaces Under Lubricated Nonconformal Point Contacts

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

Using the generalized interpolation material point method for fluid-solid interactions induced by surface tension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis is devoted to the development of new, Generalized Interpolation Material Point Method (GIMP)-based algorithms for handling surface tension and contact (wetting) in fluid-solid interaction (FSI) problems at small scales.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Biomechanical modelling of cancer: Agent‐based force‐based models of solid tumours within the context of the tumour microenvironment

open access: yesComputational and Systems Oncology, 2021
Once cancer is initiated, with normal cells mutated into malignant ones, a solid tumour grows, develops and spreads within its microenvironment invading the local tissue; the disease progresses and the cancer cells migrate around the body leading to ...

Multiscale Structural Mechanics of Rotary Shaft Seals: Numerical Studies and Visual Experiments

open access: yesLubricants, 2023
Although rotary shaft seals have been used successfully in many industrial applications for decades, their tribological behavior is still not completely understood.

Identification of predominant interfacial contact mechanisms in solid-state bonding of superplastic high carbon steel

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2014
Interfacial contact mechanisms and the superplastic behaviour of fine-grained high carbon steel during solid-state bonding were investigated. According to the results, typical superplastic deformation occurred at the bonding interface under conditions of superplasticity- causing temperature (T = 1003~1053K), bonding pressure (P = 34~44.3MPa), and ...

Solid lubrication by wet-transferred solution-processed graphene flakes: dissipation mechanisms and superlubricity in mesoscale contacts

open access: yes, 2023
Solution-processed few-layers graphene flakes, dispensed to rotating and sliding contacts via liquid dispersions, are gaining increasing attention as friction modifiers to achieve low friction and wear at technologically-relevant interfaces. Vanishing friction states, i.e.

On the Lightweight Potential of Laser Additive Manufactured NiTi Triply Periodic Minimal Sheet Lattices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the lightweight potential of laser additive‐manufactured NiTi triply periodic minimal surface sheet lattices. It systematically investigates the effects of relative density and unit cell size on surface quality, deformation recovery, compression behavior, and energy absorption.
