Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

Interpolated reference model based fault tolerant sliding mode control for an octorotor
IET Control Theory & Applications, 2022 In this paper, a quasi‐linear parameter varying sliding mode control allocation law is proposed for the fault tolerant control of an octorotor. In the event of rotor faults/failures, an allocation law redistributes the control effort among the remaining ...

Planar Solid‐State Nanopores Toward Scalable Nanofluidic Integration Based on CMOS Technology
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.We present a scalable silicon‐based fabrication strategy for planar solid‐state nanopores to enable their integration with complex nanofluidic systems. Prototype devices demonstrate normal voltage‐current characteristics, good noise performance, and appreciable streaming currents. Our CMOS‐compatible fabrication process offers precise geometric control

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Mathematical and physical ideas for climate science [PDF]
Reviews of Geophysics, 2014 The climate is a forced and dissipative nonlinear system featuring non-trivial dynamics of a vast range of spatial and temporal scales. The understanding of the climate's structural and multiscale properties is crucial for the provision of a unifying picture of its dynamics and for the implementation of accurate and efficient numerical models.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A numerical model resulting from irreversible thermodynamics for describing transport processes is introduced, focusing on thermodynamic activity gradients as the actual driving force for diffusion. Implemented in CUDA C++ and using CalPhaD methods for determining the necessary activity data, the model accurately simulates interdiffusion in aluminum ...
