AbstractThis chapter provides an overview of the common types of defects found in various structural materials and joints in aircraft. Materials manufacturing methods (including large-scale production) have been established in the aircraft industry. However, as will be seen in this chapter, manufacturing defects and defects during in-service conditions

Defect Wormholes Are Defective
The various “defect wormholes” developed by Klinkhamer have recently attracted considerable attention—especially in view of the fact that the simplest example, the so-called “vacuum defect wormhole”, was claimed to be an everywhere-vacuum everywhere-Ricci-flat exact solution to the Einstein equations.

Abstract We use the exact-deconstruction prescription to lift various squashed-S 3 partition functions with supersymmetric-defect insertions to four-dimensional superconformal indices. Starting from three-dimensional circular-quiver theories with vortex-loop-operator insertions, we recover the index of four-dimensional ...

Defect-induced modification of low-lying excitons and valley selectivity in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides [PDF]
We study the effect of point-defect chalcogen vacancies on the optical properties of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides using ab initio GW and Bethe-Salpeter equation calculations.

Magnetic states of linear defects in graphene monolayers: effects of strain and interaction [PDF]
The combined effects of defect-defect interaction and of uniaxial or biaxial strains of up to 10\% on the development of magnetic states on the defect-core-localized quasi-one-dimensional electronic states generated by the so-called 558 linear extended ...

I analyze the interplay of gauge and global symmetries in the theory of topological defects. In a two-dimensional model in which both gauge symmetries and {\it exact} global symmetries are spontaneously broken, stable vortices may fail to exist even though magnetic flux is topologically conserved.

Evolution of proton-induced defects in a cryogenically irradiated p-channel CCD [PDF]
P-channel CCDs have been shown to display improved tolerance to radiation-induced charge transfer inefficiency (CTI) when compared to n-channel CCDs. This is attributed to the properties of the dominant charge-trapping defect species in p-channel silicon
