The Logarithmic Spiral Neutron Guide [PDF]

open access: yesInstruments, 2020
We present a neutron guide which is curved in the shape of a logarithmic spiral. Simulations and calculations for such a spiral guide are presented and the potential use of the guide for a reflectometer is investigated and compared to the conventional ...

Logarithmic and Archimedean organic crystalline spirals [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Crystals can be found in many shapes but do not usually grow as spirals. Here we show that applying a non-uniform layer of a polymer blend onto slender centimeter-size organic crystals prestrains the crystals into hybrid dynamic elements with spiral ...

Broadband Microwave Absorption by Logarithmic Spiral Metasurface. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2019
AbstractMetamaterials have enabled the design of electromagnetic wave absorbers with unprecedented performance. Conventional metamaterial absorbers usually employ multiple structure components in one unit cell to achieve broadband absorption. Here, a simple metasurface microwave absorber is proposed that has one metal-backed logarithmic spiral ...

A novel logarithmic spiral design for proximal interphalangeal joint arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
This study evaluated a novel implant for proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint arthroplasty that we designed according to the principles of a logarithmic spiral. The design addresses the limitations of current implants that poorly replicate natural finger

A modified logarithmic spiral method for determining passive earth pressure

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2018
In this study, a modified logarithmic spiral method is proposed to determine the passive earth pressure and failure surface of cohesionless sloping backfill, with presence of wall–soil interface friction.

A “Logarithmic Spiral” in the Brain: Images of an Intracranial Dermoid Cyst

open access: yesTranslational Neuroscience and Clinics, 2016
A logarithmic spiral is a self-similar spiral curve, which often appears in nature, e.g., mollusk shells. In the normal tissues of the human body, the cochlea is also an approximate logarithmic spiral. However, approximate logarithmic spirals are rarely,

Factoring the logarithmic spiral

open access: yesInventiones Mathematicae, 1988
If f is a K-quasiconformal homeomorphism of Jordan domains in the plane, then for any given \(c>1\), f is equal to some composition of \(N1\). Then it is easy to show that \(s_ k\) is an L-quasi-isometry, i.e., \[ (1/L)| p-q| \leq | s_ k(p)-s_ k(q)| \leq L| p-q|,\quad \forall p,q\in \bar D^ 2.

Research on upper bound limit analysis of slope stability in open-pit mine based on least square principle [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon
So as to extend the application of upper bound limit analysis for slope stability in open-pit mine, this paper analyzed failure mechanism of rock mass when shear failure occurred based on plastic mechanics principles, and combined with discrete ...

THE LOGARITHMIC SPIRAL AND ITS SPHERICAL COUNTERPART

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics, 2019
Logarithmic spirals are isogonal trajectories of pencils of lines. From a series of geometric consequences, we pick out a few which are relevant for kinematics: When a logarithmic spiral rolls on a line, its asymptotic point traces a straight line. Hence,
