Wetting of Nematic Liquid Crystals on Crenellated Substrates: A Frank–Oseen Approach

open access: yesCrystals, 2019
We revisit the wetting of nematic liquid crystals in contact with crenellated substrates, studied previously using the Landau−de Gennes formalism.

Adaptable Tile‐Based Pneumatic Origami through Structurally Coupled Localized Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article presents tile‐based pneumatic origami structures with rigid tiles and flexible fabric creases, achieving adaptable properties including morphing shape, selective multistability, and tunable stiffness. Independently pressurized folding bladders at each crease enable structurally coupled localized actuation of origami structures.

Enabling Digital Continuity in Virtual Manufacturing for Eco‐Efficiency Assessment of Lightweight Structures by Means of a Domain‐Specific Structural Mechanics Language: Requirements, Idea and Proof of Concept

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article presents a solver‐agnostic domain‐specific language (DSL) for computational structural mechanics that strengthens interoperability in virtual product development. Using a hierarchical data model, the DSL enables seamless exchange between diverse simulation tools and numerical methods.

On the Lightweight Potential of Laser Additive Manufactured NiTi Triply Periodic Minimal Sheet Lattices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the lightweight potential of laser additive‐manufactured NiTi triply periodic minimal surface sheet lattices. It systematically investigates the effects of relative density and unit cell size on surface quality, deformation recovery, compression behavior, and energy absorption.

Spin–valley Hall phenomena driven by Van Hove singularities in blistered graphene

open access: yesnpj Computational Materials, 2020
Using first-principles calculations, we investigate the possibility of realizing valley Hall effects (VHE) in blistered graphene sheets. We show that the Van Hove singularities (VHS) induced by structural deformations can give rise to interesting spin ...

Stability and deformation of F-singularities

open access: yesIsrael Journal of Mathematics
We study the problem of $\mathfrak{m}$-adic stability of F-singularities, that is, whether the property that a quotient of a local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ by a non-zero divisor $x \in \mathfrak{m}$ has good F-singularities is preserved in a sufficiently small $\mathfrak{m}$-adic neighborhood of $x$.

Numerical Investigation of a Dual‐Mode Shape Memory Alloy Stent Enabling Secondary Expansion via Focused Ultrasound: A Potential Strategy for Correcting In‐Stent Restenosis

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a novel noninvasive strategy to treat in‐stent restenosis using focused ultrasound. A shape memory alloy stent initially expands at body temperature. If restenosis occurs, targeted ultrasound heating thermally actuates the stent, enabling a secondary expansion to reopen the blocked vessel, offering a potential alternative to ...

Phases of 5d SCFTs from M-/F-theory on non-flat fibrations

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We initiate the systematic investigation of non-flat resolutions of non-minimal singularities in elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds. Compactification of M-theory on these geometries provides an alternative approach to studying phases of five ...

Deformations of three-dimensional cusp singularities

open access: yesTohoku Mathematical Journal, 1986
The author continues his investigation of cusp singularities [ibid. 35, 607-639 (1983; Zbl 0585.14004)]. This time he studies deformations of 3- dimensional cusp singularities (V,p), which are not of Hilbert modular type. [The Hilbert modular cusp singularities in dimension 3 or more are rigid, see \textit{E. Freitag} and \textit{R.
