On the inevitability of the consistency operator

, 2019
We examine recursive monotonic functions on the Lindenbaum algebra of $\mathsf{EA}$. We prove that no such function sends every consistent $\varphi$ to a sentence with deductive strength strictly between $\varphi$ and $(\varphi\wedge\mathsf{Con}(\varphi))

Soft‐Layered Composites with Wrinkling‐Activated Multi‐Linear Elastic Behavior, Stress Mitigation, and Enhanced Strain Energy Storage

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, exciting new bi‐/multi‐linear elastic behavior of soft elastic composites that accompany the activation of wrinkling in the embedded interfacial layers is analyzed. The new features and performance of these composite materials, including dramatic enhancements in energy storage, can be tailored by the concentration of interfacial layers ...

A Novel Simulation Approach for Damage Evolution during Tailored Forming

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Traditional damage models are struggling to accurately and efficiently simulate large‐scale three‐dimensional models with a great number of degrees of freedoms. A new gradient‐enhanced damage model based on the extended Hamilton principle can significantly reduce the computation time while ensuring mesh‐independence which is suitable to use in tailored

Rational quadratic spline interpolation to monotonic data. [PDF]

, 1982
In an earlier paper by Gregory & Delbourgo (1982), a piecewise rational quadratic function is developed which produces a monotonic interpolant to monotonic data. This interpolant gives visually pleasing curves and is of continuity class C1 .

Comments on Holographic Entanglement Entropy and RG Flows

, 2012
Using holographic entanglement entropy for strip geometry, we construct a candidate for a c-function in arbitrary dimensions. For holographic theories dual to Einstein gravity, this c-function is shown to decrease monotonically along RG flows.

Inequalities, asymptotic expansions and completely monotonic functions related to the gamma function [PDF]

, 2014
In this paper, we present some completely monotonic functions and asymptotic expansions related to the gamma function. Based on the obtained expansions, we provide new bounds for Γ(x + 1)/Γ(x + 1/2) and Γ(x + 1/2)

Tribology of ZrC Coatings and Spherical Tips Acquired with Extraordinarily Stiff, Metal Atomic Force Microscopy Probes

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this research, ZrC coatings are evaluated against various counterprobes at the microscale using novel super‐stiff atomic force microscopy cantilevers. The chemical composition of the coating is shown to be an important factor influencing coating hardness and Young's modulus, while surface roughness, counterprobe hardness, and surface energy are the ...

A Simulative Approach for the Prediction of Mesoscale Residual Stress Fields in Solution‐Strengthened Ferritic Ductile Iron

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a 3D representative volume element‐based simulation approach to predict mesoscopic residual stress and strain fields in silicon solid solution‐strengthened ductile cast iron. By modeling phase transformation kinetics with an enhanced Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov model, the effects of varying cooling rates on residual stresses are ...
