Tuning the Magnetic Ordering Temperature of Hexagonal Ferrites by Structural Distortion Control [PDF]
To tune the magnetic properties of hexagonal ferrites, a family of magnetoelectric multiferroic materials, by atomic-scale structural engineering, we studied the effect of structural distortion on the magnetic ordering temperature (TN).

Nonlinear output frequency response functions of MDOF systems with multiple nonlinear components [PDF]
In engineering practice, most mechanical and structural systems are modeled as Multi-Degree-of-Freedom (MDOF) systems. When some components within the systems have nonlinear characteristics, the whole system will behave nonlinearly.
