Superprism phenomena in planar photonic crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We utilize the anomalous dispersion of planar photonic crystals near the dielectric band edge to control the wavelength-dependent propagation of light. We typically observe an angular swing of up to 10degrees as the input wavelength is changed from 1290 ...

Justifying Typicality Measures of Boltzmannian Statistical Mechanics and Dynamical Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A popular view in contemporary Boltzmannian statistical mechanics is to interpret the measures as typicality measures. In dynamical systems theory measures can similarly be interpreted as typicality measures.

Introduction to Statistical Mechanics of Charged Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The paper is the summary of lectures given in São Carlos, Brazil during the 2004 Summer School on Statistical Mechanics. My objective was to provide the students with some basic tools necessary to study the thermodynamics of Coulomb systems.

Closed Trans-Scale Statistical Microdamage Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Damage and failure due to distributed microcracks or microvoids are on the challenging frontiers of solid mechanics. This appeals strongly to tools not yet fully developed in continuum damage mechanics, in particular to irreversible statistical ...

Multiscale Modelling of Self-Organization of Non-Equilibrium Point Defects in Irradiated α-Zirconium

open access: yesУспехи физики металлов, 2017
This work is devoted to a comprehensive detailed study of a pure zirconium with non-equilibrium point defects induced by irradiation within the framework of the multiscale modelling scheme by using quantum-mechanics methods, molecular dynamics, and the ...

Statistical mechanics of crystal nuclei of hard spheres

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics
In the study of crystal nucleation via computer simulations, hard spheres are arguably the most extensively explored model system. Nonetheless, even in this simple model system, the complex thermodynamics of crystal nuclei can sometimes give rise to counterintuitive results, such as the recent observation that the pressure inside a critical nucleus is ...

Statistical microdamage mechanics and damage field evolution

open access: yes, 2001
Discussed are the underlying background of statistical microdamage mechanics, the fundamental partial differential equation of evolution of microdamage number density, two basic solutions, and the saturation of microdamage number density evolution ...

Statistical mechanics of defects in polymer liquid crystals

open access: yesJournal de Physique II, 1992
We develop a continuum theory for the statistical mechanics of thermally activated point defects in the nematic and hexagonal phases of polymer liquid crystals. In the nematic phase, there are elementary splay defects (chain ends and hairpins), and in the hexagonal phase, there are both splay defects and twist defects.
