Wannier-Stark ladders in one-dimensional elastic systems

open access: yes, 2006
The optical analogues of Bloch oscillations and their associated Wannier-Stark ladders have been recently analyzed. In this paper we propose an elastic realization of these ladders, employing for this purpose the torsional vibrations of specially ...

Multiscale Architecture and Mechanics of the Cell Nucleus: Implications for Disease, Bioengineering and Nanomedicine

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nuclear mechanical properties are inherently scale‐dependent, arising from a hierarchical architecture that spans DNA, chromatin, the nuclear envelope, and condensates. Experimental techniques and theoretical models are integrated into a cohesive multiscale framework linking nanoscale structural features to organelle‐level mechanical behavior.

Probing Steady‐State Carrier Properties and Charge Transport in Covalent Organic Framework by Frequency‐Domain Terahertz Spectroscopy

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This work reports a combined frequency‐domain and time‐domain terahertz (THz) spectroscopic approach to elucidate intrinsic carrier properties and transport mechanisms in framework materials over the extended 0.5–20 THz region. Subtle structural and chemical variations are shown to strongly influence THz charge‐transport behavior across the far ...

Rejuvenated Amorphous Alloys: Processing Methods, Microstructures and Mechanical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Three rejuvenation methods – mechanical and thermal rejuvenation, and other rejuvenation routes such as ultrasonic processing – can be used to modify structures of glassy alloys, especially atomic clusters, and therefore enhances plasticity and activates work‐hardening behaviors.

A Negatively Curved Pyrene‐Fused Azaacene

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A pyrene‐fused azaacene derivative is reported in which steric overcrowding caused by eight phenyl substituents induces bending of the aromatic framework rather than twisting. ABSTRACT Non‐planar aromatic hydrocarbons display distorted π‐frameworks that give rise to unique optoelectronic properties.

Preliminary instability-analysis of deepwater riser with fairings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Instability of deepwater riser with fairings is investigated in this study. Despite the advantages over other devices for suppressing vortex-induced-vibration (VIV), fairings may be susceptible to flutter type instability.

Thin‐Film Thermal Sensors on Chitosan Substrates for Sustainable Transient Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Fully transient thin‐film temperature sensors are realized on pure chitosan substrates using Mo‐based RTDs and a‐IGZO/Mo thermistors. The devices exhibit high sensitivity, mechanical flexibility, humidity‐aware operation, and complete dissolution in natural solvents.
