Finite element heterogeneous multiscale methods for the wave equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Wave phenomena appear in a wide range of applications such as full-waveform seismic inversion, medical imaging, or composite materials. Often, they are modeled by the acoustic wave equation.

The Effect of Different System Parameters on the Movement of Microbial Cells Using Light-Induced Dielectrophoresis

open access: yesMicromachines
The manipulation of single particles remains a topic of interest with many applications. Here we characterize the impact of selected parameters on the motion of single particles thanks to dielectrophoresis (DEP) induced by visible light, in a technique ...

Strong Lead‐Free Bioinspired Piezoceramics for Durable Energy Transducers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We fabricated brick‐and‐mortar lead‐free piezoceramics with Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 monocrystal platelets as bricks and amorphous silica as mortar. The alignment of the bricks and the presence of the amorphous silica led to anisotropic residual stresses. These residual stresses increase the samples toughness, strength and durability while the brick alignment ...

Wave propagation of spectral energy content in a granular chain

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
A mechanical wave is propagation of vibration with transfer of energy and momentum. Understanding the spectral energy characteristics of a propagating wave through disordered granular media can assist in understanding the overall properties of wave ...

Functionalizing Micro‐to‐Mesoscopic Electrode Architectures for Regulating Electron Transfer Behaviors in Electrocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A systematic review is conducted to assess the influence of electrode architecture across micro‐ to mesoscopic length scales on electron‐transfer pathways in electrocatalysis. We discuss the structure‐activity relationships in electrocatalytic applications, including resource recovery and environmental remediation, and provide cost‐effective, efficient

An automated multiscale ensemble simulation approach for vascular blood flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cerebrovascular diseases such as brain aneurysms are a primary cause of adult disability. The flow dynamics in brain arteries, both during periods of rest and increased activity, are known to be a major factor in the risk of aneurysm formation and ...

Pore resolved simulations of joule heating in fibrous media using an embedded boundary method

open access: yesResults in Engineering
Joule heating has been regarded as an energy-efficient and sustainable method for heating various materials and gases at large scales. The modeling of Joule heating at pore-resolved scales for such systems, however, has been challenging due to ...

Bioinspired Co‐Assembly Enables Multiscale Architected Hydrogels for 3D Printing With Integrated Antibacterial and Bioactive Functions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A multicomponent supramolecular hydrogel integrating cell‐adhesive and antibacterial peptides within an alginate‐cellulose nanofibril matrix is developed. Peptide co‐assembly simultaneously strengthens the hydrogel network, improves extrusion printability, and imparts cell‐adhesive and antibacterial functions, offering a versatile platform for ...

A multiscale tribological study of nacre : Evidence of wear nanomechanisms controlled by the frictional dissipated power [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Sheet nacre is a hybrid biocomposite with a multiscale structure, including nanograins of CaCO3 (97% wt.% – 40 nm in size) and two organic matrices: (i) the “interlamellar” mainly composed of β-chitin and proteins, and (ii) the “intracrystalline” mainly ...

Multiscale comparative connectomics

open access: yesImaging Neuroscience
Abstract The connectome, a map of the structural and/or functional connections in the brain, provides a complex representation of the neurobiological phenotypes on which it supervenes. This information-rich data modality has the potential to transform our understanding of the relationship between patterns in brain connectivity and ...
