A new proposal of effective stress and critical distance for fatigue at notches
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2014 The Theory of Critical Distance (TCD) and its associated methods have proved useful for predicting fatigue and fracture failure under stress gradients. This work reports the first analytical deduction of the effective stress and its critical distance in ...

Critical Casimir effect for colloids close to chemically patterned substrates
, 2010 Colloids immersed in a critical or near-critical binary liquid mixture and close to a chemically patterned substrate are subject to normal and lateral critical Casimir forces of dominating strength.

Bridging transitions for spheres and cylinders
, 2015 We study bridging transitions between spherically and cylindrically shaped particles (colloids) of radius $R$ separated by a distance $H$ that are dissolved in a bulk fluid (solvent).

A new class of short distance universal amplitude ratios
, 2003 We propose a new class of universal amplitude ratios which involve the first terms of the short distance expansion of the correlators of a statistical model in the vicinity of a critical point.

Optimal topological simplification of discrete functions on surfaces [PDF]
, 2010 We solve the problem of minimizing the number of critical points among all functions on a surface within a prescribed distance {\delta} from a given input function.

At the end of the world: Local Dynamical Cobordism
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 The Cobordism Conjecture states that any Quantum Gravity configuration admits, at topological level, a boundary ending spacetime. We study the dynamical realization of cobordism, as spacetime dependent solutions of Einstein gravity coupled to scalars ...

Boundary critical behaviour at m-axial Lifshitz points of semi-infinite systems with a surface plane perpendicular to a modulation axis [PDF]
, 2005 Semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with an $m$-axial bulk Lifshitz point are considered whose ($d-1$)-dimensional surface hyper-plane is oriented perpendicular to one of the $m$ modulation axes.

Chain length dependence of the polymer-solvent critical point parameters
, 1996 We report grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations of the critical point properties of homopolymers within the Bond Fluctuation model. By employing Configurational Bias Monte Carlo methods, chain lengths of up to N=60 monomers could be studied.

Correlation Functions of a Conformal Field Theory in Three Dimensions [PDF]
, 1994 We derive explicit forms of the two--point correlation functions of the $O(N)$ non-linear sigma model at the critical point, in the large $N$ limit, on various three dimensional manifolds of constant curvature.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Osteosarcoma is a radioresistant tumor that may benefit from stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for locoregional control in metastatic/recurrent disease. We report institutional practice patterns, outcomes, toxicity, and failures in osteosarcoma patients treated with SBRT.
