Force, relative-displacement, and work networks in granular materials subjected to quasistatic deformation [PDF]
To describe the heterogeneous nature of stress transmission in granular materials, the concept of the “strong” network consisting of contacts with large normal forces has been proposed by Radjaï et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 61 (1998)].

Numerical Exploration of Thermal Shock Resistance in MgO–C Refractories
A mesostructure‐resolved numerical framework is developed to evaluate the thermal shock resistance of MgO–C refractories. By modeling interface debonding under rapid temperature changes and introducing a modified thermal shock parameter that accounts for mesocracks, the study shows how graphite content and aggregate size influence thermal shock ...

A Lightweight Procedural Layer for Hybrid Experimental–Computational Workflows in Materials Science
We unveil a prototype hybrid‐workflow framework that fuses automatedcomputation with hands‐on experiments. Built atop pyiron, a lightweight, parameterized layer translates procedure descriptions into executable manual steps, syncing instrument settings, human interventions, and data capture in real‐time today.

Phase Noise Modeling of Opto-Mechanical Oscillators [PDF]
We build upon and derive a precise far from carrier phase noise model for radiation pressure driven opto-mechanical oscillators and show that calculations based on our model accurately match published phase noise data for such oscillators.
