The mechanisms and applications of friction energy dissipation

Friction, 2022
About 30% of the world’s primary energy consumption is in friction. The economic losses caused by friction energy dissipation and wear account for about 2%–7% of its gross domestic product (GDP) for different countries every year.

A Mechanism of Energy Dissipation in Cyanobacteria [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2009
When grown under a variety of stress conditions, cyanobacteria express the isiA gene, which encodes the IsiA pigment-protein complex. Overexpression of the isiA gene under iron-depletion stress conditions leads to the formation of large IsiA aggregates ...

Emergent energy dissipation in quantum limit

Science Bulletin
Energy dissipation is of fundamental interest and crucial importance in quantum systems. However, whether energy dissipation can emerge inside topological systems remains a question, especially when charge transport is topologically protected and quantized.

Calibration of an elastoplastic model of sand liquefaction using the swarm intelligence with a multi-objective function

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2023
According to post-seismic observations, spectacular examples of engineering failures can be ascribed to the occurrence of sand liquefaction, where a sandy soil stratum could undergo a transient loss of shear strength and even behave as a “liquid ...
