Why Is the Mechanism Underlying the Chiral‐Induced Selectivity Effect Still Challenging?

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The chiral‐induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect is observed in many experimental configurations and for different materials. However, there are theoretical challenges in attempting to explain those results. A qualitative framework for explaining all the results is presented.

Recent Seismic Activity in the Azores Region [PDF]

, 2008
This seismic activity in the Azores Region is characterized by sequences of low-magnitude events, usually with epicenter off-shore. These seismic sequences are sometimes triggered by larger events, felt by the population, that could produce significant ...

Stress-dependent Mohr–Coulomb shear strength parameters for intact rock

Scientific Reports
Rock strength is imperative for the design and stability analysis of engineering structures. The Mohr-Coulomb (M-C) criterion holds significant prominence in geotechnical engineering. However, the M-C criterion fails to accurately capture the nonlinear strength response and neglects the critical state of rocks, potentially leading to inaccuracies in ...

Coupled Chemical and Mechanical Control of the Pore Size in Carbon Honeycomb Membranes for Water Desalination

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The advancement of 3D carbon nanostructures for next‐generation desalination membranes is hindered by limited control of the pore size to ensure effective salt rejection. Chemical functionalization and mechanical modification are known approaches to address the problem, while the combined effect of the two approaches remains unexplored.

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Shear modulus of neutron star crust

, 2011
Shear modulus of solid neutron star crust is calculated by thermodynamic perturbation theory taking into account ion motion. At given density the crust is modelled as a body-centered cubic Coulomb crystal of fully ionized atomic nuclei of one type with ...

Stress drop, earthquake aftershocks and regional stress relation based on synthetic static Coulomb failure stress model

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019
Coulomb failure criterion has been applied widely in the scope of earthquake science to explain earthquake interactions base on stress change, with the well-known method named Coulomb failure stress change ΔCFS). Preceding studies have showed: increase ΔCFS, depicted as positive stress lobes, has correlation with occurrence of following events. However

Local Rheology Relation with Variable Yield Stress Ratio across Dry, Wet, Dense, and Dilute Granular Flows

, 2019
Dry, wet, dense, and dilute granular flows have been previously considered fundamentally different and thus described by distinct, and in many cases incompatible, rheologies.
