Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

On the rate of convergence of Lp norms in the CLT for Poisson random sum

open access: yesLietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2009
In the paper, we present the upper bound of Lp norm \deltaλ,p of the order λ-δ/2 for all 1 \leq  p \leq ∞,  in the central limit theorem for a standardized random sum (SNλ - ESNλ)/DSNλ , where SNλ = X1 + ··· + XNλ is the random sum of independent ...

Hybrid Magnetoactive Soft Elastomers: Material Development Toward Application in Diaphragm Pumps

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hybrid magnetoactive soft elastomeric membranes are developed by combining two different types of magnetic particles. The membranes exhibit distinct mechanical, magnetic and thermal properties owing to the unique characteristics of the two magnetic particles.

The Wasserstein Metric between a Discrete Probability Measure and a Continuous One

open access: yesMathematics
This paper examines the Wasserstein metric between the empirical probability measure of n discrete random variables and a continuous uniform measure in the d-dimensional ball, providing an asymptotic estimation of their expectations as n approaches ...

Entropy Bounds for Discrete Random Variables via Maximal Coupling

open access: yes, 2013
This paper derives new bounds on the difference of the entropies of two discrete random variables in terms of the local and total variation distances between their probability mass functions.

Combinatorial aspects of weighted free Poisson random variables

open access: yesInfinite Dimensional Analysis, Quantum Probability and Related Topics
This paper will be devoted to the study of weighted (deformed) free Poisson random variables from the viewpoint of orthogonal polynomials and statistics of non-crossing partitions. A family of weighted (deformed) free Poisson random variables will be defined in a sense by the sum of weighted (deformed) free creation, annihilation, scalar, and ...

Advanced Design for Weakly Coupled Resonators by Automatic Active Optimization

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An Automatic Active Optimization (AAO) strategy integrates machine learning predictors and genetic algorithms in a closed‐loop workflow. By iteratively expanding its dataset with new discoveries, AAO overcomes the limits of conventional methods. This approach finds superior microstructural designs beyond the initial sample space. We demonstrate this on

Zero bias transformation and asymptotic expansions II : the Poisson case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We apply a discrete version of the methodology in \cite{gauss} to obtain a recursive asymptotic expansion for $\esp[h(W)]$ in terms of Poisson expectations, where $W$ is a sum of independent integer-valued random variables and $h$ is a polynomially ...

Morphology‐Driven Electromechanical Performance of Graphene‐Based Electrofluids for Emerging Soft Electronic Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Here, two types of electronic components are presented: a strain sensor and a stable resistor. Electrofluids properties are tuned to match these behaviors by selecting the type of filler. We show that the morphology of the filler together with its oxygen content are the key parameters to create electrical and mechanical networks with distinct responses.
