A Novel Approach to Estimate the Transition Temperature via Dynamic Nanoindentation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A new dynamic nanoindentation‐based method was developed that uses the stiffness ratio as an indicator of the elastic–plastic deformation contributions at different temperatures. The approach successfully identified transition temperatures in ferritic steel and distinguished them from continuously ductile austenitic steel.

The Blocking Numbers of Convex Bodies [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete & Computational Geometry, 2000
The blocking number \(b(K)\) of a convex body \(K\) in Euclidean \(n\)-space \(\mathbb{R}^n\) is defined as the smallest possible number of disjoint translates of \(K\) which touch from outside the boundary of \(K\) and which prevent any additional disjoint translate of \(K\) from touching \(K\) from outside.

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Floating and Illumination Bodies for Polytopes: Duality results

open access: yesDiscrete Analysis, 2019
Floating and illumination bodies for polytopes: duality results, Discrete Analysis 2019:11, 22 pp. A well-known concept in convex geometry is that of the _floating body_ of a convex body, which is defined as follows.

The unrestricted blocking number in convex geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Let K be a convex body in \mathbb{R}^n. We say that a set of translates \left \{ K + \underline{u}_i \right \}_{i=1}^{p} block K if any other translate of K which touches K, overlaps one of K + \underline{u}_i, i = 1, . . . , p.

Confinement in Metal‐Organic Frameworks as a Route to Harnessing Liquid Barocalorics in the Solid‐State

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Encapsulation of solid–liquid barocalorics (BC) within MOFs harnesses their colossal BC performance whilst allowing active control of BC properties through BC‐MOF interactions. ABSTRACT Barocaloric (BC) effects at liquid–vapor transitions in hydrofluorocarbons drive most commercial technologies used for heating and cooling in the heating, ventilation ...

Signorini-Type Problems over Non-Convex Sets for Composite Bodies Contacting by Sharp Edges of Rigid Inclusions

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
A new type of non-classical 2D contact problem formulated over non-convex admissible sets is proposed. Specifically, we suppose that a composite body in its undeformed state touches a wedge-shaped rigid obstacle at a single contact point.

Architecture‐Driven Functional Coupling in Vertically Aligned Nanocomposites

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Vertically aligned nanocomposites define a growth‐engineered architecture in which vertical interfaces, strain fields, defect pathways, and phase connectivity are created simultaneously. This review shows how these architectural features couple ferroic, optical, ionic, electrochemical, and device responses, establishing design rules and open challenges

The Characteristic Properties of the Minimal Lp-Mean Width

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, 2017
Giannopoulos proved that a smooth convex body K has minimal mean width position if and only if the measure hK(u)σ(du), supported on Sn-1, is isotropic. Further, Yuan and Leng extended the minimal mean width to the minimal Lp-mean width and characterized ...
