Controlled Formation of Carbon Nanotubes and Nanotube Junctions from Bilayer Graphene
Small, EarlyView.Twisted bilayer graphene is cut using a scanning transmission electron microscope to create individual chiral carbon nanotubes and interconnected nanotube junctions. The sculpting is facilitated by in situ heating and automated beam control. Bilayer graphene ribbons with a width of less than approximately 4 nm spontaneously convert to CNTs, while no ...

Dynamics of pyroclastic density currents : : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Earth Sciences at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2016 Listed in 2016 Dean's List of Exceptional ThesesPyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are the most dangerous mass flows on Earth. Yet they remain poorly understood because internal measurements and observations are hitherto non-existent.

Filling a Gap in Materials Mechanics: Nanoindentation at High Constant Strain Rates up to 105 s−1
Small, EarlyView.A piezoelectric nanoindentation platform enables constant strain‐rate testing up to 105 s−1, extending experimental capabilities to extreme deformation regimes. Distinct hardness upturns are revealed across crystalline and amorphous materials, verified as intrinsic responses through quasi‐static reloading.

Nonlinear Gravity Waves in a Thin Sheet of Viscous Fluid [PDF]
, 1966 In the study of long gravity waves of finite amplitude, the main body of the existing theories has been built upon the simplifying assumption that the viscosity is either totally negligible, or adequately described by an empirical law.

Activatable smart contrast agents for photoacoustic imaging
Smart Molecules, EarlyView.This review highlights recent advances in smart activatable photoacoustic imaging (PAI) contrast agents, which dynamically modulate their optical properties in response to external stimuli or microenvironmental cues. It discusses their molecular design, activation mechanisms, biomedical applications, and future prospects for clinically tailored use ...

steel research international, EarlyView.The high‐strain‐rate behavior of resistance spot‐welded DP800–DP1000 joints is investigated. Results show that microstructural gradients across BM–HAZ–FZ govern hardness, strain rate sensitivity, and failure modes. While strength increases with strain rate, energy absorption is controlled by ductility, with DP800–DP800 joints showing superior ...

Research in volcanic geology, petrology and planetary science at MIT, 1969 to 1974 [PDF]
The behavior of volcanoes was studied by geologic mapping, petrologic investigations of lava and xenoliths, physical measurements, and theoretical modelling. Field observations were conducted in Alaska (Nunivak Island), Iceland, Hawaii (Mauna Kea), Italy
