Phase and vacancy behaviour of hard "slanted" cubes [PDF]
We use computer simulations to study the phase behaviour for hard, right rhombic prisms as a function of the angle of their rhombic face (the "slant" angle). More specifically, using a combination of event-driven molecular dynamics simulations, Monte Carlo simulations, and free-energy calculations, we determine and characterize the equilibrium phases ...

Mixed Voltage Angle and Frequency Droop Control for Transient Stability of Interconnected Microgrids with Loss of PMU Measurements [PDF]
We consider the problem of guaranteeing transient stability of a network of interconnected angle droop controlled microgrids, where voltage phase angle measurements from phasor measurement units (PMUs) may be lost, leading to poor performance and instability.

Phase reddening on near-Earth asteroids: Implications for mineralogical analysis, space weathering and taxonomic classification [PDF]
Phase reddening is an effect that produces an increase of the spectral slope and variations in the strength of the absorption bands as the phase angle increases. In order to understand its effect on spectroscopic observations of asteroids, we have analyzed the visible and near-infrared spectra (0.45-2.5 \mu m) of 12 near-Earth asteroids observed at ...

Creep Characterization of Inconel 718 Lattice Metamaterials Manufactured by Laser Powder Bed Fusion
Herein, the creep characteristics of additively manufactured Inconel 718 metamaterials are investigated. The creep behavior of metamaterials and the effects of microstructural defects are assessed, and the microstructure defects are accurately captured using Kachanov's creep damage model.
