Curvature Potential Unveiled Topological Defect Attractors

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
We consider the theoretical and positional assembling of topological defects (TDs) in effectively two-dimensional nematic liquid crystal films. We use a phenomenological Helfrich–Landau–de Gennes-type mesoscopic model in which geometric shapes and ...

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Pseudo-Bochner curvature tensor on Hermitian manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Our main purpose of this paper is to introduce a natural generalization $B_H$ of the Bochner curvature tensor on a Hermitian manifold $M$ provided with the Hermitian connection. We will call $B_H$ the pseudo-Bochner curvature tensor.

Non-linear isocurvature perturbations and non-Gaussianities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
24 pagesWe study non-linear primordial adiabatic and isocurvature perturbations and their non-Gaussianity. After giving a general formulation in the context of an extended $\delta N$ formalism, we analyse in detail two illustrative examples. The first is

A note on some generalized curvature tensor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
For any semi-Riemannian manifold (M,g) we define some generalized curvature tensor as a linear combination of Kulkarni-Nomizu products formed by the metric tensor, the Ricci tensor and its square of given manifold. That tensor is closely related to quasi-

Advanced techniques for decomposing recurrent curvature tensors in Tachibana spaces and generalized geometric structures

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of advanced techniques for decomposing recurrent curvature tensors across diverse geometric frameworks. By integrating classical methodologies with modern approaches, we develop novel methods that enhance the ...

A Numerical–Experimental Approach for Multi‐Matrix Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Characterization Using Finite Element Model Updating

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.

Curvature tensor in discrete gravity

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
We study numerically the curvature tensor in a three-dimensional discrete space. Starting from the continuous metric of a three-sphere, we transformed it into a discrete space using three integers $$n_1, n_2$$ n 1 , n 2 , and $$n_3$$ n 3 .

PASTA‐ELN: Simplifying Research Data Management for Experimental Materials Science

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Research data management faces ongoing hurdles as many ELNs remain complex and restrictive. PASTA‐ELN offers an open‐source, cross‐platform solution that prioritizes simplicity, offline access, and user control. Its in tuitive folder structure, modular Python add‐ons, and open formats enable seamless documentation, FAIR data practices, and easy ...

On Tensorial Concomitants and the Non-Existence of a Gravitational Stress-Energy Tensor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Based on an analysis of what it may mean for one tensor to depend in the proper way on another, I prove that, under certain natural conditions, there can be no tensor whose interpretation could be that it represents gravitational stress-energy in general
