Spacetime is composed of a fluctuating arrangement of bubbles or loops called spacetime foam, or quantum foam. We use the holographic principle to deduce its structure, and show that the result is consistent with gedanken experiments involving spacetime measurements.

We study a certain class of embedded [Formula: see text]-foams that arise from gluing disks into ribbon torus knots along nonintersecting torus meridians. We exhibit several equivalent diagrammatic formalisms for these objects and identify several of their invariants, including a unique prime factorization.

An Evaluation of Non-Stochastic Lattice Structures Fabricated Via Electron Beam Melting [PDF]
Metal foam structures have many applications and can be used as structural supports, heat exchangers, shock absorbers, and implant materials. Stochastic metal foams having different cell sizes and densities have been commercially available for a number

Foaming Volume and Foam Stability. [PDF]
A method of measuring foaming volume is described and investigated to establish the critical factors in its operation. Data on foaming volumes and foam stabilities are given for a series of hydrocarbons and for a range of concentrations of aqueous ethylene-glycol solutions.

Klein foams are analogues of Riemann and Klein surfaces with one-dimensional singularities. We prove that the field of dianalytic functions on a Klein foam $ $ coincides with the field of dianalytic functions on a Klein surface $K_ $. We construct the moduli space of Klein foams and we prove that the set of classes of topologically equivalent Klein ...

SIMULATIONS OF THE PROPERTIES OF ELONGATED HEXAGONAL DODECAHEDRON SYSTEMS
This study considers a 3D basic unit-cell proposed for auxetic and non-auxetic foams namely the elongated hexagonal dodecahedron deforming through changes in angle between its ligaments (idealised hinging model). This structure was studied in detail for

The naturally occurring saponins exhibit remarkable interfacial activity and also possess many biological activities linking to human health benefits, which make them particularly attractive as bifunctional building blocks for formulation of colloidal ...

Polyetherimide foams filled with low content of graphene nanoplatelets prepared by scCO2 dissolution [PDF]
Polyetherimide (PEI) foams with graphene nanoplatelets (GnP) were prepared by supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) dissolution. Foam precursors were prepared by melt-mixing PEI with variable amounts of ultrasonicated GnP (0.1–2.0 wt %) and foamed by one ...
