Multiplicity of forced oscillations for scalar differential equations
We give, via topological methods, multiplicity results for small periodic perturbations of scalar second order differential equations. In particular, we show that the equation $$ ddot{x} = g(x)+varepsilon f(t,x,dot x), $$ where $g$ is $C^1$ and $f$ is ...

Resolving the Structural Duality of Graphene Grain Boundaries
Cantilever ncAFM resolves the atomic structure of grain boundaries in graphene, revealing coexisting stable and metastable types. Both contain pentagon/heptagon defects, but metastable GBs show irregular geometries. Modeling shows metastable GBs form under compression, exhibiting vertical corrugation, while stable GBs are flat.

Sensitivity analysis of stochastically forced quasiperiodic self-oscillations
We study a problem of stochastically forced quasi-periodic self-oscillations of nonlinear dynamic systems, which are modelled by an invariant torus in the phase space.

A Functional 2D Carbon Allotrope Combining Nanoporous Graphene and Biphenylene Segments
The synthesis of a novel nanoporous graphene (NPG) is reported with biphenylene segments via thermal fusion of 12‐armchair porous graphene nanoribbons grown on gold surfaces. Characterization using STM, AFM, and DFT reveals low‐defect semiconducting behaviour and tunable band gaps.

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Intelligent Acousto‐Electrical Metamaterials (IAM) for Sound Source Detection
Our proposed metamaterial concept enables sound source detection using a single material, in contrast to conventional arrays that require dozens or even hundreds of transducers. We show that the coupled acoustic–vibrational–electrical responses in piezoelectric metamaterials give rise to topology‐governed charge transport, producing distinct voltage ...

UNSTEADY SHOCK WAVE – TURBULENT BOUNDARY LAYER INTERACTION IN THE LAVAL NOZZLE
The flow in transonic diffusers and supersonic air intakes often becomes unsteady due to shock wave-boundary layer interaction. Oscillations may be induced by natural separation unsteadiness or forced by boundary conditions.

Comprehensive analysis of the mechanical system system “fixture – workpiece” [PDF]
Present work is devoted to locating and clamping of prismatic parts in fixtures during the machining on drilling-milling-boring machines. The special feature of locating schemes of parts of the present type is that one of the flat surfaces is used as a ...

Mechanically Programmable DNA Hydrogel Microparticles for 3D Cellular Systems
DNA hydrogel microparticles are designed to exhibit controllable viscoelasticity and stiffness across three orders of magnitude from 30Pa$30 \,\mathrm{Pa}$ to 6.5kPa$6.5 \,\mathrm{kPa}$. They are uptaken into fibroblast spheroids where they are actively remodeled by cellular forces depending on their mechanical properties.
