Nonconvex Lipschitz function in plane which is locally convex outside a discontinuum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We construct a Lipschitz function on $\er^{2}$ which is locally convex on the complement of some totally disconnected compact set but not convex. Existence of such function disproves a theorem that appeared in a paper by L.

A Conceptual Conjugate Epi-Projection Algorithm of Convex Optimization: Superlinear, Quadratic and Finite Convergence

open access: yes, 2018
This paper considers a conceptual version of a convex optimization algorithm whic is based on replacing a convex optimization problem with the root-finding problem for the approximate sub-differential mapping which is solved by repeated projection onto ...

Chemo‐Mechanical Coupling in Hydrogels: Dynamics in the Diffusion‐Limited Regime

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A time‐dependent continuum model is developed to capture the transient swelling dynamics of chemo‐mechanical hydrogels. By coupling chemical reactions, solvent transport, and polymer deformation, volume phase transitions, reaction kinetics, and transient mechanical instabilities are analyzed.

Mechanisms of Anode Interfacial Phenomena and Multi‐perspective Optimization in Aqueous Alkaline Zinc‐Air Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Zinc‐air batteries demonstrate great potential for sustainable energy storage but face major anode‐related challenges. This review provides a mechanism‐driven overview of zinc anode interfacial issues, e.g. dendrite formation, passivation, self‐corrosion, and hydrogen evolution; and explores advances in electrode, surface, and electrolyte engineering ...

Unlock the Walnut: How a Pectin‐Rich Suture Tissue and Moisture‐Driven Crack Formation Induce Shell Splitting and Facilitate Seed Germination

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Walnut seeds are enclosed in a remarkably strong shell made of sclerenchyma, separated by a pectin‐rich suture tissue. Different cell shapes and chemical composition of this tissue point to an opening mechanism, which is triggered by cyclic humidity changes.

Approximation of Convex Functions

open access: yesReal Analysis Exchange, 2004
It is known [\textit{M. Ghomi}, Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 130, No.~8, 2255--2259 (2002; Zbl 0999.26008)] that every convex function on an open interval \(I\) can be uniformly approximated by convex \(C^\infty\)-functions on every compact subinterval \([a,b]\) of \(I\). Ghomi's approach requires the knowledge of Lebesgue integral and convolutions. The aim of

Enzyme‐Regulated Extended Swelling of Hydrogels for Dehiscence‐Less Tissue Expansions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An interpenetrating hydrogel network with swelling under regulation by enzymatic degradation (INSURED) is fabricated to avoid dehiscence. INSURED remains structurally intact post‐implantation, while HYAL injection enables control over the onset and rate of swelling.

A Note on Shapleys Convex Measure Games [PDF]

open access: yes
L. S. Shapley, in his paper Cores of Convex Games, introduces Convex Measure Games, those that are induced by a convex function on R, acting over a measure on the coalitions.

Convex combinations, barycenters and convex functions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2013
The article first shows one alternative definition of convexity in the discrete case. The correlation between barycenters, Jensen's inequality and convexity is studied in the integral case. The Hermite-Hadamard inequality is also obtained as a consequence of a concept of barycenters.

Stochastically Generated Digital Twins of 3D Solid‐State Electrolyte Architecture

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Digital Twins of random porous tape‐cast solid‐state battery architectures across µm to mm feature sizes from FIB‐SEM to X‐Ray µCT, respectively. Abstract Solid‐state lithium batteries (SSBs) have the potential to overcome conventional Li‐ion batteries in performance and safety.
