Understanding Oxide Surface Stability: Theoretical Insights From Silver Chromate
Seven low‐index Miller surfaces, comprising 46 distinct terminations, were systematically investigated to determine their surface free energies as functions of the chemical potentials of the system constituents. The competition among these terminations gives rise to temperature‐dependent stability crossovers that dynamically reshape the surface energy ...

Inequalities Relating Degrees of Adjacent Vertices to the Average Degree
By a hypergraph with a fixed number of vertices (per edge), say n, the authors understand a matrix of non-negative integers with constant row sum n; they allow vertices to occur more than once in an edge. The authors prove a theorem from which they draw four corollaries.

Rocket landing guidance based on second-order Picard-Chebyshev-Newton type algorithm
This paper proposes a rocket substage vertical landing guidance method based on the second-order Picard-Chebyshev-Newton type algorithm. Firstly, the continuous-time dynamic equation is discretized based on the natural second-order Picard iteration ...
