Packing Convex Bodies by Cylinders [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete & Computational Geometry, 2016
In [BL] in relation to the unsolved Bang's plank problem (1951) we obtained a lower bound for the sum of relevant measures of cylinders covering a given d-dimensional convex body. In this paper we provide the packing counterpart of these estimates. We also extend bounds to the case of r-fold covering and packing and show a packing analog of Falconer's ...

Mechanics of Telson Ridges in Mantis Shrimp for Impact Analysis and Implications for Bioinspired Elastic Shell Designs

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The mantis shrimp telson reveals how ridged biological shields control deformation under impact. Inspired by this architecture, telson‐inspired ridged curved shells transform ridge geometry and macroscopic curvature into bidirectional snap‐through, tunable stiffness, and enhanced hysteretic energy dissipation for multifunctional architected materials ...

Bioinspired Adaptive Surfaces for Intelligent Liquid Manipulation: Progressing From Passive and Active to Hybrid Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines passive, active, and hybrid liquid manipulation strategies, highlighting hybrid approaches as an emerging route to reconcile energy efficiency with adaptive control. By actively reconstructing passive surfaces to store programmable interfacial energy, hybrid systems enable flexible yet low‐power liquid transport, with perspectives ...

Partitioning Functional of a Class of Convex Bodies

open access: yesAxioms
For each n-dimensional real Banach space X, each positive integer m, and each bounded set A⊆X with diameter greater than 0, let βX(A,m) be the infimum of δ∈(0,1] such that A⊆X can be represented as the union of m subsets of A, whose diameters are not ...

OpenGJK for C, C# and Matlab: Reliable solutions to distance queries between convex bodies in three-dimensional space

open access: yesSoftwareX, 2018
Implementing a reliable algorithm for computing the distance between convex bodies is an involved and time-consuming task. Common applications of these algorithms include robot path planning, image rendering and collision detection.

On Mixed Quermassintegral for Log-Concave Functions

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, 2020
In this paper, the functional Quermassintegral of log-concave functions in ℝn is discussed. We obtain the integral expression of the ith functional mixed Quermassintegral, which is similar to the integral expression of the ith mixed Quermassintegral of ...

Soft Skins With Reversible Thickness Morphing: Materials, Mechanisms, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Evolution of electronic skin (e‐skin) technologies toward adaptive, multifunctional soft skins. Phase I highlights early rigid and discrete sensory interfaces. Phase II shows the transition toward flexible, stretchable, and large‐area e‐skin. Phase III captures the emergence of computational e‐skin.

Numerical Investigation of Liquid Flow Behaviors through Closed Rough Fractures in the Self-Propped Shale Formation

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The surface morphology of fractures formed by hydraulic fracturing is usually rough. The roughness of the fracture surface is the main reason the actual fracture conductivity deviates from the ideal flat plate model result.

Closed‐Loop Solid‐State Synthesis Planning for Materials Discovery With Large Language Models

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Leveraging literature data, we build a large‐language‐model‐driven workflow that extracts synthesis steps from 4407 papers, retrieves similar precedents, and generates candidate solid‐state synthesis recipes. The system benchmarks against ground‐truth and then operates in a closed loop with experiments to synthesize oxy‐selenide electrolyte materials ...
