A meshfree formulation for large deformation analysis of flexoelectric structures accounting for the surface effects [PDF]
In this work, we present a compactly supported radial basis function (CSRBF) based meshfree method to analyse geometrically nonlinear flexoelectric nanostructures considering surface effects.

Current understanding of surface effects in microcutting
Machining processes have made technological leaps in achieving ultraprecision material removal and surface finishing at the submicrometric scale. At this level of precision, size effects have dominated machining investigations while surface effects have ...

Investigation of Ring and Star Polymers in Confined Geometries: Theory and Simulations
The calculations of the dimensionless layer monomer density profiles for a dilute solution of phantom ideal ring polymer chains and star polymers with f=4 arms in a Θ-solvent confined in a slit geometry of two parallel walls with repulsive surfaces and ...

Reheating as a Surface Effect [PDF]
We describe a new mechanism for reheating the Universe through evaporation of a surface charge of a fragmented inflaton condensate. We show that for a range of Yukawa coupling of the inflaton to the matter sector evaporation gives rise to a much smaller reheat temperature compared to the standard perturbative decay.

Drought Disasters in China from 1991 to 2018: Analysis of Spatiotemporal Trends and Characteristics
Droughts have emerged as a global problem in contemporary societies. China suffers from different degrees of drought almost every year, with increasing drought severity each year. Droughts in China are seasonal and can severely impact crops.
