Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.

Two Contributions to Rolling Contact Fatigue Testing Considering Different Diameters of Rail and Wheel Discs

open access: yesLubricants, 2023
Scaled rolling contact fatigue tests, used to practically simulate the wear of the wheel and rail material under laboratory conditions, are typically classified into two categories. Tests in the first category use twin-disc stands, while the second group

Propulsion on a superhydrophobic ratchet [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2014
Liquids in the Leidenfrost state were shown by Linke to self-propel if placed on ratchets. The vapour flow below the liquid rectified by the asymmetric teeth entrains levitating drops by viscosity. This effect is observed above the Leidenfrost temperature of the substrate, typically 200°C for water.

An Assessment of Kinematic Hardening Thermal Ratcheting

open access: yes, 1974
Analytical comparisons are made between the thermal ratcheting response of a kinematic hardening material, a perfectly plastic, and an isotropic hardening material for a two-element assembly.

Thermal structural ratcheting simulation—Evaluation of industrial-used constitutive models

open access: yes, 2023
International audienceThis article presents an evaluation of the performance of conventional constitutive models in modelling the structural ratcheting of an austenitic stainless steel structure subjected to a thermomechanical loading.

An ontological morphological phylogenetic framework for living and extinct ray‐finned fishes (Actinopterygii)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...

Cyclic deformation response of annealed low-carbon steel: Insights from ratcheting and LCF experiments

open access: yesJournal of Alloys and Metallurgical Systems
Low cycle fatigue (LCF) and ratcheting experiments were carried out on annealed low-carbon steel at room temperature within a laboratory environment, utilising stress and strain control modes.

Study on ratcheting of beams under the combination of gravity and seismic load

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2019
Ratcheting is one common phenomenon under excessive earthquakes. This study focuses on clarifying the ratcheting mechanism of beams subjected to the combination of gravity and seismic loadings. The sinusoidal excitations or their combinations represented

Formulation of plastic strain distribution derived from long-distance travel of temperature distribution based on residual stress required for elastic shakedown behavior

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2021
In an experimental study that simulated a fast breeder reactor (FBR) vessel near the coolant surface, it was reported that the long distance travel of temperature distribution causes a new type of thermal ratcheting, even in the absence of primary stress.

Bacterial ratchet motors [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010
Self-propelling bacteria are a nanotechnology dream. These unicellular organisms are not just capable of living and reproducing, but they can swim very efficiently, sense the environment, and look for food, all packaged in a body measuring a few microns.
