The theory of critical distances applied to problems in fracture and
fatigue of bone

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2013
The theory of critical distances (TCD) has been applied to predict notch-based fracture and fatigue in a wide range of materials and components. The present paper describes a series of projects in which we applied this approach to human bone.

New mean field theories for the liquid-vapor transition of charged hard spheres

open access: yes, 2004
The phase behavior of the primitive model of electrolytes is studied in the framework of various mean field approximations obtained recently by means of methods pertaining to statistical field theory (CAILLOL, J.-M., 2004, \textit{J. Stat.

Classical running and symmetry breaking in models with two extra dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We consider a codimension two scalar theory with brane-localised Higgs type potential. The six-dimensional field has Dirichlet boundary condition on the bounds of the transverse compact space.

Invariant Correlations in Simplicial Gravity

open access: yes, 1994
Some first results are presented regarding the behavior of invariant correlations in simplicial gravity, with an action containing both a bare cosmological term and a lattice higher derivative term.

Regularization of Brane Induced Gravity

open access: yes, 2003
We study the regularization of theories of ``brane induced'' gravity in codimension $N>1$. The brane can be interpreted as a thin dielectric with a large dielectric constant, embedded in a higher dimensional space.

Gradient elasticity: a transformative stress analysis tool to design notched components against uniaxial/multiaxial high-cycle fatigue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper investigates the accuracy of gradient elasticity in estimating high-cycle fatigue strength of notched components subjected to both uniaxial and multiaxial fatigue loading. A novel design methodology is formulated by combining Ru and Aifantis’

Structure factor of thin films near continuous phase transitions

open access: yes, 1999
The two-point correlation function in thin films is studied near the critical point of the corresponding bulk system. Based on fieldtheoretic renormalization group theory the dependences of this correlation function on the lateral momentum, the two ...

Interactions between nanofibers in fiber-surfactant suspensions: Theory of corresponding distances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present the theory of corresponding distances for the interactions mediated by soft nano- structures in fibrous materials. These fibre-soft-fibre interactions are important for the design of fibrous materials as well as for the critical problem of ...

Non Perturbative Solutions and Scaling Properties of Vector, Axial--Vector Electrodynamics in $1+1$ Dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
We study by non perturbative techniques a vector, axial--vector theory characterized by a parameter which interpolates between pure vector and chiral Schwinger models.
