Geometry‐Dependent Adhesion in Transparent Monodomain Liquid Crystal Elastomers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Liquid Crystal Elastomers (LCEs) are emerging as exciting pressure‐sensitive adhesives. We examine adhesion in chemically identical elastomer films, exploring the influence of geometry (director orientation) and phase (nematic or isotropic). We demonstrate the potential of these aligned films as transparent, tunable, broad‐temperature‐range smart ...

New Karhunen-Loève expansions based on Hahn polynomials with application to a Sobolev test for uniformity on Johnson graphs

Comptes Rendus. Mathématique
We give a new family of Karhunen-Loève expansions involving Hahn polynomials. This enables us to introduce discrete analogues of Watson statistics, and a test for uniformity on Johnson’s graphs. We use the fact that the zonal spherical functions on these

Merging in Antipodal Distance-Regular Graphs

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1994
Merging (also called fusion) is studied in antipodal distance-regular graphs. It is determined when merging the first and the last classes in an antipodal distance-regular graph produces a distance-regular graph. Conversely, given a distance-regular graph with the same intersection array as the merged graph and a certain clique partition, an antipodal ...

Predicting Atomic Charges in MOFs by Topological Charge Equilibration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An atomic charge prediction method is presented that is able to accurately reproduce ab‐initio‐derived reference charges for a large number of metal–organic frameworks. Based on a topological charge equilibration scheme, static charges that fulfill overall neutrality are quickly generated.

Cardiac‐Derived ECM Microspheres for Enhanced hiPSC‐CMs Maturation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cardiac extracellular matrix microspheres derived from decellularized porcine heart provide a biomimetic 3D microenvironment for human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC‐CMs). This platform supports short‐ and long‐term culture, enhances structural organization, and promotes electrophysiological and functional maturation of ...

Meta‐Rod Mechanical Metamaterials With Programmable Reconfiguration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Existing mechanical metamaterials achieve programmable large deformations in planar square or cubic configurations, restricted by required complex boundary conditions. This research proposes a 1D metamaterial, Meta‐rod, with linear, bending, twisting, area, and volume deformation modes.

A PEG Construction of LDPC Codes Based on the Betweenness Centrality Metric

Advances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2016
Progressive Edge Growth (PEG) constructions are usually based on optimizing the distance metric by using various methods. In this work however, the distance metric is replaced by a different one, namely the betweenness centrality metric, which was ...

Tails of Bipartite Distance-regular Graphs

European Journal of Combinatorics, 2002
Let \(\Gamma \) denote a bipartite distance-regular graph with diameter \(D\geq 4\) and valency \(k\geq 3\). Let \(\theta _{0}>\theta _{1}>\cdots >\theta _{D}\) denote the eigenvalues of \(\Gamma \) and let \(E_{0}, E_{1},\ldots ,E_{D}\) denote the associated primitive idempotents.

Laser‐Welded Cellulose‐Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposites as a 3D Scaffold of Si Anodes for High‐Performance Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A Si anode comprising entangled networks of cellulose and SWCNT (C‐CNT) nanocomposites as an anode electrode for a high‐performance LIB is realized by fully utilizing the generated microstructure of a novel conductive 3D scaffold via a low‐temperature and eco‐friendly process. Additionally, localized heating via photo‐thermal conversion can be utilized
