Scientific Reports, 2022 Curvilinear walking is common, causing limb- and radius-dependent asymmetries that distinguish it from straight walking and elevated friction demands that increase slip-and-fall risk.

Superfluid spin transport in magnetically ordered solids
, 2020 The paper reviews the theory of the long-distance spin superfluid transport in solid ferro- and antiferromagnets based on the analysis of the topology, the Landau criterion, and phase slips.

Thermal conductance as a probe of the non-local order parameter for a topological superconductor with gauge fluctuations [PDF]
, 2014 We investigate the effect of quantum phase slips on a helical quantum wire coupled to a superconductor by proximity. The effective low-energy description of the wire is that of a Majorana chain minimally coupled to a dynamical $\mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge field.

Langmuir, 2019 A fundamental limitation of liquids on many surfaces is their contact line pinning. This limitation can be overcome by infusing a nonvolatile and immiscible liquid or lubricant into the texture or roughness created in or applied onto the solid substrate ...

Decay of superfluid currents in a moving system of strongly interacting bosons [PDF]
, 2005 We analyze the stability and decay of supercurrents of strongly interacting bosons on optical lattices. At the mean-field level, the system undergoes an irreversible dynamic phase transition, whereby the current decays beyond a critical phase gradient ...

Energy-level quantization and single-photon control of phase slips in YBa2Cu3O7–x nanowires
Nature Communications, 2020 Significant progress has been made in superconducting quantum circuits. However new quantum devices that have longer decoherence times at higher temperatures are urgently required for quantum technologies.

Slip-Resistance Performance of Basketball Shoes Tread Patterns on Common Courts
Applied MechanicsBasketball requires intense movements like jumping and sudden changes in direction, increasing the risk of slips and falls due to poor shoe–court traction. Therefore, a significant demand is for good traction performance in basketball shoes, particularly

Stimulated quantum phase slips from weak electromagnetic radiations in superconducting nanowires
, 2015 We study the rate of quantum phase slips in an ultranarrow superconducting nanowire exposed to weak electromagnetic radiations. The superconductor is in the dirty limit close to the superconducting-insulating transition, where fluxoids move in strong ...

SensorsIn the construction industry, falls, slips, and trips (FST) account for 42.3% of all accidents. The primary cause of FST incidents is directly related to the deterioration of workers’ body stability.
