The Value of Exposure: The Connection Between International Contact, Ethnocentrism, and Intercultural Sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
As higher education continues on the path of globalization, a persistent focus is placed on creating internationally competent professionals. The most prominent method used to achieve this is through the internationalization of curriculums on college ...

Near‐Field Electrospinning Micro‐Printhead Achieves Precise Control of Nanofiber Deposition

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A micro‐printhead for near‐field electrospinning enables reproducible deposition of polymer nanofibers with diameters below 50 nm. Systematic parameter studies uncover the mechanisms linking operating conditions to fiber morphology, paving the way for precise and low‐cost nanoscale 3D manufacturing.As a high‐resolution, cost‐effective, and rapid ...

Contact-Aware Path Planning for Autonomous Neuroendovascular Navigation

open access: yesIEEE Robotics and Automation Letters
We propose a deterministic and time-efficient contact-aware path planner for neurovascular navigation. The algorithm leverages information from pre- and intra-operative images of the vessels to navigate pre-bent passive tools, by intelligently predicting and exploiting interactions with the anatomy.

Bicoloured Dyck Paths and the Contact Polynomial for $n$ Non-Intersecting Paths in a Half-Plane Lattice [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2003
In this paper configurations of $n$ non-intersecting lattice paths which begin and end on the line $y=0$ and are excluded from the region below this line are considered. Such configurations are called Hankel $n-$paths and their contact polynomial is defined by $\hat{Z}^{\cal{H}}_{2r}(n;\kappa)\equiv \sum_{c= 1}^{r+1} |{\cal H}_{2r}^{(n)}(c)|\kappa^c ...

Solid‐State Diffusion and Intermetallic Phase Formation in Roll‐Bonded Mg–Zn Composites With Kirigami‐Patterned Inlay

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mg–Zn composites with a thickness of 0.21 mm were fabricated using roll bonding of a kirigami‐patterned Mg alloy inlay within a Zn matrix. Thermal activation following this process led to the formation of tailored intermetallic structures, which provided the composite with enhanced flexural strength.

Path-following the static contact problem with Coulomb friction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
summary:Consider contact problem with Coulomb friction on two planar domains. In order to find non-unique solutions we propose a new path following algorithm: Given a linear loading path we approximate the corresponding solution path.

Evaluation of sealing characteristics of copper gasket using laser microscope with wide field of view

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
To quantitatively predict leakage rates through gasket/flange interface, it is important to observe contact conditions at seal surfaces because the leakage path consists of the non-contact portions between the flange and gasket surfaces.

Parametric Quasi-Static Study of the Effect of Misalignments on the Path of Contact, Transmission Error, and Contact Pressure of Crowned Spur and Helical Gear Teeth Using a Novel Rapidly Convergent Method

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Quasi-static modelling of non-conjugate contact of tooth-modified spur and helical gears has been studied at length, but existing models are hindered by convergence problems and require a brute-force numerical approach.

Phase Field Failure Modeling: Brittle‐Ductile Dual‐Phase Microstructures under Compressive Loading

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The approach by Amor and the approach by Miehe and Zhang for asymmetric damage behavior in the phase field method for fracture are compared regarding their fitness for microcrack‐based failure modeling. The comparison is performed for the case of a dual‐phase microstructure with a brittle and a ductile constituent.
