Mechanics of Telson Ridges in Mantis Shrimp for Impact Analysis and Implications for Bioinspired Elastic Shell Designs

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The mantis shrimp telson reveals how ridged biological shields control deformation under impact. Inspired by this architecture, telson‐inspired ridged curved shells transform ridge geometry and macroscopic curvature into bidirectional snap‐through, tunable stiffness, and enhanced hysteretic energy dissipation for multifunctional architected materials ...

Effects of dynamical quark flavors on imaginary potential and thermal width in heavy quarkonium from AdS/CFT correspondence

open access: yesPhysics Letters B
In this work, we investigate the unquenched effects on the imaginary potential and thermal width within the framework of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Using the Nambu-Goto action, we find that the imaginary potential vanishes in the quenched system (Nf=0 ...

Solovian and New Growth Theory from the Perspective of Allyn Young on Macroeconomic Increasing Returns [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper evaluates, from an Allyn Youngian perspective, the neoclassical Solow model of growth and the associated empirical estimates of the sources of growth based on it.

Longitudinal scaling property of the charge balance function in Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s)NN = 200 GeV [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present measurements of the charge balance function, from the charged particles, for diverse pseudorapidity and transverse momentum ranges in Au + Au collisions at using the STAR detector at RHIC.

Stability proof for nonlinear MPC design using monotonically increasing weighting profiles without terminal constraints

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceIn this note, a new formulation of Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework with no stability-related terminal constraint is proposed and its stability is proved under mild standard assumptions.

Grayscale Photomasks Enable Noncontact Optical Patterning of Hydroxypropyl Cellulose Gels for Dynamic Art

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mask‐encoded UV exposure translates digital color information into pixel‐resolved structural‐color patterns in hydroxypropyl cellulose gels. Gaussian‐process‐guided calibration links UV processing conditions, wavelength, and mask opacity, enabling parallel fabrication of multicolor images in a single 10 s exposure.

Interpreting the synchronisation of driven colloidal oscillators via the mean pair interaction

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
To explore the generic features of synchronisation facilitated by hydrodynamic interactions dominated by viscous forces, we investigate small systems of rowers; rowers are a highly simplified model for motile cilia, with each cilium approximated by a ...

Judgment of Temporal Duration of Stimulus Components in a Spatial Sequence

open access: yes, 1973
Judgment of the duration of the stimulus components of tri-grams consisting of consonants was a monotonically increasing function of the letter positions in the sequence of left to right. This tendency was more clearly demonstrated when the frequency of

High‐Performance, Air‐Stable and Eco‐Friendly Terpene‐Processed Organic Solar Cells via Solvent‐Composition‐Controlled Film Formation Kinetics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Solvent‐composition‐controlled film formation enables high‐performance (efficiency = 18.66%) and air‐stable terpene‐processed organic solar cells. An optimized eucalyptol/tetralin ratio of 50:50 (v/v) balances molecular solvation and aggregation kinetics, producing favorable nanoscale phase separation and vertical composition gradients.

Cosmological Time Dilation as a Monotonically Increasing Function of Universal Expansion: A Framework and Conjecture [PDF]

open access: yes
I present a theoretical framework proposing that the proper rate of time, averaged across the observable universe, increases monotonically as a function of cosmic expansion.
