Using a damper amplification factor to increase energy dissipation in structures [PDF]
, 2015 Fluid dampers are an important tool for dissipating unwanted vibrations in a range of engineering structures. This paper examines the effects of amplifying the displacements transferred to a non-linear damper, to increase the effectiveness of the damper ...

Puncture of a Viscous Liquid Film Due to Droplet Falling
Fluids, 2022 Droplet impact may rupture a liquid film on a non-wettable surface. The formation of a stable dry spot has only been studied in the inviscid case. Here, we examine the break-up of viscous films, and demonstrate the importance and role of the viscous ...

Emergence of rate-independent dissipation from viscous systems with wiggly energies [PDF]
, 2011 We consider the passage from viscous system to rate-independent system in the limit of vanishing viscosity and for wiggly energies. Our new convergence approach is based on the (R,R*) formulation by De Giorgi, where we pass to the Γ limit in the ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A flexure‐based variable stiffness structure is developed by integrating phase‐change modulation and adhesive interfacial locking of gallium. The design enables a wide stiffness variability, transitioning from soft, flexible behavior to rigid, load‐supporting performance.

A Laplacian-based algorithm for non-isothermal atomistic-continuum hybrid simulation of micro and nano-flows [PDF]
, 2013 We propose a new hybrid algorithm for incompressible micro and nanoflows that applies to non-isothermal steady-state flows and does not require the calculation of the Irving–Kirkwood stress tensor or heat flux vector.

A Note on the Cartesian Graetz problem with viscous dissipation
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021 In this paper a numerical analysis to the Graetz problem with viscous dissipation is carried out, based on a series expansion of the temperature field and considering two conditions for the inlet temperature profile, the case of uniform temperature and ...
