Homogeneous holographic viscoelastic models and quasicrystals
Physical Review Research, 2020 We show that the field theories dual to the homogeneous holographic models with spontaneously broken translations display several distinctive properties of quasicrystals, aperiodic crystals with long-range order (e.g., incommensurate charge density waves)

Quasi-Projection: aperiodic concrete formwork for perceived surface complexity
, 2008 By disclosing long range order from few dissimilar tiles, aperiodic tilings can potentially diversify and spatially enrich the repetitive aspects of modular systems still pertinent in the production of architecture today. Such effective tilings have been

Dislocations in icosahedral quasicrystals [PDF]
Chemical Society Reviews, 2012 Dislocations in quasicrystals, as a direct result of the lack of translational symmetry in these materials, possess various salient features. The Burgers vector of a dislocation in an icosahedral quasicrystal is a 6-dimensional vector, which reflects the fact that the dislocation, besides the phonon-type strain field analogous to dislocations in ...

Generic mobility edges in a class of non-Hermitian quasicrystals
Results in PhysicsWe present approximate solutions for the mobility edge (ME) in a specific class of one-dimensional non-Hermitian (NH) quasicrystals delineating between localized and extended states.

Towards aperiodic tesellation: a self-organising particle spring system approach
, 2008 The derivation of novel programming methods for the generation of aperiodic tiling patterns, predominantly in 2d space, has attracted considerable attention from both researchers and practicing architects.

, 2003 Phononic crystals are to sound what photonic crystals are to light and crystals are to electrons. If the wavelength is of the same order of magnitude as the typical distances between the objects in their ordered arrangement, then the interaction is ...

, 1989 Following the discovery of two dimensional quasicrystals in rapidly solidified Al-Mn alloys by us and L. Bendersky in 1985, a number of fascinating studies has been conducted to unravel the atomic configuration of quasicrystals with decagonal symmetry. A

, 2014 International audienceThe (lattice) dynamics of quasicrystals differs in many aspects from that of lattice periodic systems. This they have in common with other aperiodic crystals.

Image Sampling with Quasicrystals
Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2009 We investigate the use of quasicrystals in image sampling. Quasicrystals produce space-filling, non-periodic point sets that are uniformly discrete and relatively dense, thereby ensuring the sample sites are evenly spread out throughout the sampled image.

Isotropic and anisotropic physical properties of quasicrystals
, 2006 Since quasicrystals have positional and orientational long-range order, they are essentially anisotropic. However, the researches show that some physical properties of quasicrystals are isotropic.
