Experimental Analysis and Physics‐Based Analytical Model on Twisted and Coiled Artificial Muscles

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Twisted and coiled artificial muscles made from silver‐coated nylon fibers are investigated through experiments and analytical modeling. The actuators achieve contractions up to 19.3% and specific work of 8 kJ kg−1, though efficiency remains limited (≈0.15%) by thermal losses.

Some Common Fixed Point Theorems in Generalized Metric Spaces

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, 2013
First we prove common fixed point theorems for weakly compatible maps which generalize the results of Chen (2012). Secondly, we prove common fixed point theorems using property E.A. along with weakly compatible maps.

Partial metric spaces with negative distances and fixed point theorems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we consider partial metric spaces in the sense of O'Neill. We introduce the notions of strong partial metric spaces and Cauchy functions.

Analyzing Electronic Excitations and Exciton Binding Energies in Y6 Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The Y6 molecule is used for increasing the efficiency of organic solar cells. The exciton binding energy is calculated for ensembles of Y6 molecules that are representative of the typically used films. The calculations show that the excitons typically spread out over many molecules.

Some Krasnosel’skii-type fixed point theorems for Meir–Keeler-type mappings

open access: yesNonlinear Analysis, 2020
In this paper, inspired by the idea of Meir–Keeler contractive mappings, we introduce Meir–Keeler expansive mappings, say MKE, in order to obtain Krasnosel’skii-type fixed point theorems in Banach spaces. The idea of the paper is to combine the notion of

Unique Performance Considerations for Printable Organic Semiconductor and Perovskite Radiation Detectors: Toward Consensus on Best Practice Evaluation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A lack of standard approaches for testing and reporting the performance of metal halide perovskites and organic semiconductor radiation detectors has resulted in inconsistent interpretation of performance parameters, impeding progress in the field. This Perspective recommends key metrics and experimental details, which are suggested for reporting in ...

Notes on multidimensional fixed-point theorems

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2017
In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of coincident (fixed) points for nonlinear mappings of any number of arguments under a (ψ, θ, φ)-weak contraction condition without O-compatibility.

Central limit theorems for sequential and random intermittent dynamical systems

open access: yes, 2016
We establish self-norming central limit theorems for non-stationary time series arising as observations on sequential maps possessing an indifferent fixed point. These transformations are obtained by perturbing the slope in the Pomeau-Manneville map.

New Results and Generalizations for Approximate Fixed Point Property and Their Applications

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
We first introduce the concept of manageable functions and then prove some new existence theorems related to approximate fixed point property for manageable functions and α-admissible multivalued maps. As applications of our results, some new fixed point
