Quasi‐BIC and Reflective Mode Coupling Drives SHG Beyond the Q Factor Limit

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
An analytical expression is developed to relate second‐harmonic generation to both the resonance Q factor and absorptance. Simulations and experiments on a dual‐resonance 3R‐MoS2 metasurface validate the formula, showing that absorptance engineering provides an effective route to enhance SHG beyond conventional Q‐only design.

General formulation for uniform and non‐uniform high‐strength steel slender I‐section beams

open access: yesSteel Construction, EarlyView.
Abstract The Ayrton–Perry approach is the basis of Eurocode 3 rules for buckling resistance, with distinct curves and imperfection factors depending on section type, steel grade, and other parameters. For generic members – built‐up or not, uniform or not, with complex supports or not – the code allows either the general method (clause 8.3.4 of Eurocode
