Azobenzene's Cross‐Scale Optics and Photonics: Molecular Photoswitching, Mesoscopic Material Motions, and Adaptive Devices

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

Large Deformation Elastic Analysis of Pressurized FGM Thick Cylindrical Shells with Nonlinear Plane Elasticity Theory (NPET) [PDF]

Mechanics of Advanced Composite Structures
In the present study, the governing equation of pressurized axisymmetric thick cylinders made of Functionally Graded materials (FGMs) with large deformations is derived using the Nonlinear Plane Elasticity Theory (NPET).

Highly Entangled Bottlebrush Polymer Networks

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bottlebrush polymers are difficult to entangle, enabling ultrasoft yet brittle networks. We report highly entangled bottlebrush elastomers that remain ultrasoft (∼1 kPa) yet stretch to ∼1800% and exhibit exceptional fatigue resistance. Their intrinsic fatigue strength—fatigue threshold normalized by modulus—surpasses that of highly entangled linear ...

Nonlinearity in oscillating bridges

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2013
We first recall several historical oscillating bridges that, in some cases, led to collapses. Some of them are quite recent and show that, nowadays, oscillations in suspension bridges are not yet well understood. Next, we survey some attempts to model

Nonlinear Elastic Deformation of Mindlin Torus

Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation, 2021
The nonlinear deformation and stress analysis of a circular torus is a difficult undertaking due to its complicated topology and the variation of the Gauss curvature. A nonlinear deformation (only one term in strain is omitted) of Mindlin torus was formulated in terms of the generalized displacement, and a general Maple code was written for numerical ...

Electrically Tunable Heliconical Smectic Superstructure in Polar Fluids

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Strong dipole–dipole interactions give rise to an emergent polar smectic phase with spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking. This resulting polar heliconical smectic superstructure enables novel functionalities in polar fluids, such as color modulation driven by electric field strength and frequency, as well as second‐harmonic generation amplification ...

Connecting Euler and Lagrange systems as nonlocally related systems of dynamical nonlinear elasticity

Archives of Mechanics, 2011
Nonlocally related systems for the Euler and Lagrange systems of two-dimensional dynamical nonlinear elasticity are constructed. Using the continuity equation, i.e., conservation of mass of the Euler system to represent the density and Eulerian velocity ...

Reversible Hydration Tuning of Polar Order and Large Nonlinear Optical Response in a 2D van der Waals Crystal, LiInP2S6

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Hydration‐induced symmetry breaking transforms layered LiInP2S6${\rm LiInP}_2{\rm S}_6$ from a nonpolar to a chiral‐polar phase, producing a giant enhancement of non‐resonant second‐harmonic generation. The reversible tuning of polar order through molecular intercalation establishes a strategy for dynamically controlling nonlinear optical ...
