Bio‐inspired nanophotonics: Structural color, chirality, and resonance metasurfaces

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
A butterfly‐wing‐inspired anisotropic plasmonic flatband resonant metasurface. Insets, photo of the butterfly, Sasakia charonda, and the SEM image of its wing scale (above); the SEM image of the metasurface (below). Abstract The dazzling colors of butterfly wings and hummingbird feathers are not painted with pigments, but crafted by nature's invisible ...

Why more physics can help achieving better mathematics

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we discuss the question whether a physical "simplification" of a model makes it always easier to study, at least from a mathematical and numerical point of view.

Weak Solutions for a Class of Nonlocal Singular Problems Over the Nehari Manifold

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we consider a nonlocal model of dilatant non‐Newtonian fluid with a Dirichlet boundary condition. By using the Nehari manifold and fibering map methods, we obtain the existence of at least two weak solutions, with sign information.

Experimental Modal Analysis‐Driven Gaussian Process Regression Modeling of Rectangular Steel Beams With Various Hole Geometries

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the dynamic behavior of structural components is crucial for optimizing performance and ensuring structural integrity. This study presents a new method that combines a systematic experimental investigation of four distinct hole geometries (circular, square, compact rectangular, and long rectangular) with varying hole counts, all ...

Adhesion-induced phase separation of multiple species of membrane junctions

open access: yes, 2002
A theory is presented for the membrane junction separation induced by the adhesion between two biomimetic membranes that contain two different types of anchored junctions (receptor/ligand complexes).

From 0D to 3D liquid crystal elastomers architectures: Fabrications and applications

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
This review presents a dimension‐oriented overview of liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), highlighting their molecular alignment, fabrication strategies, and programmable deformations from 0D particles to 3D architectures. Emphasis is placed on how dimensionality guides design principles, enables diverse actuation modes, and bridges fundamental ...

Statics of nonlocal stress driven graded material beam - cauchy distribution approach

open access: yesApplications in Engineering Science
Nonlocal elasticity theories are essential for modeling size-dependent mechanical behavior in micro- and nano-structured components, yet existing stress-driven formulations rely almost exclusively on rapidly decaying kernels such as the Helmholtz or ...

Global existence for a nonlocal model for adhesive contact

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we address the analytical investigation of a model for adhesive contact, which includes nonlocal sources of damage on the contact surface, such as the elongation.

Self‐Assembled Conjugated Hollow Fibers for Spongy Monoliths Toward Solar‐Driven Desalination and Hydrovoltaic Electricity Generation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A self‐assembled conjugated hollow fiber monolith enables simultaneous solar‐driven desalination and hydrovoltaic electricity generation. Metal‐free polymerization produces cross‐linked hollow fibers that entangle into a porous monolith, followed by gradient polypyrrole coating for efficient light absorption and directional water transport.

Towards Fractional Gradient Elasticity

open access: yes, 2013
An extension of gradient elasticity through the inclusion of spatial derivatives of fractional order to describe power-law type of non-locality is discussed. Two phenomenological possibilities are explored.
