Topology uniformity pinning control for multi-agent flocking
Complex & Intelligent Systems, 2023 The optimal selection of pinning nodes for multi-agent flocking is a challenging NP-hard problem. Current pinning node selection strategies mainly rely on centrality measures of complex networks, which lack rigorous mathematical proof for effective ...

Effective free energy for pinned membranes [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2011 We consider membranes adhered through specific receptor-ligand bonds. Thermal undulations of the membrane induce effective interactions between adhesion sites. We derive an upper bound to the free energy that is independent of interaction details. To lowest order in a systematic expansion we obtain two-body interactions which allow to map the free ...

Controlling the plasmon resonance via epsilon-near-zero multilayer metamaterials
Nanophotonics, 2020 Localized plasmon resonance of a metal nanoantenna is determined by its size, shape and environment. Here, we diminish the size dependence by using multilayer metamaterials as epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) substrates.

Role of substrate softness in stabilizing surface nanobubbles
Green Energy & Environment, 2020 The contact line pinning and supersaturation theory for the nanobubble stability has attracted extensive concerns from experimental investigators, and some experimenters argue that the contact line pinning is unnecessary.

On the origin of the sharp, low-field pinning force peaks in MgB2 superconductors
AIP Advances, 2020 Various MgB2 thin films and single crystals were found in the literature to exhibit a sharp, narrow peak at low fields in the volume pinning force, Fp(H)-diagrams.

Thermodynamics of the vortex liquid in heavy ion-irradiated superconductors [PDF]
, 2005 It is shown that the large effect of heavy ion-irradiation on the thermodynamical properties of the anisotropic superconductor YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7-\delta}$ extends well into the superconducting fluctuation regime. The presence of the induced amorphous

Dynamic influence of pinning points on marine ice-sheet stability: a numerical study in Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2016 The East Antarctic ice sheet is likely more stable than its West Antarctic counterpart because its bed is largely lying above sea level. However, the ice sheet in Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica, contains marine sectors that are in contact with the ...
