Twisting instabilities in elastic ribbons with inhomogeneous pre-stress: A macroscopic analog of thermodynamic phase transition

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Michael Christopher Gomez

We study elastic ribbons subject to large, tensile pre-stress confined to a central region within the cross-section. These ribbons can buckle spontaneously to form helical shapes, featuring regions of alternating chirality (phases) that are separated by so ...

Atmospheric biogenic volatile organic compounds in the Alaskan Arctic tundra: constraints from measurements at Toolik Field Station

Hélène Paule Angot

The Arctic is a climatically sensitive region that has experienced warming at almost 3 times the global average rate in recent decades, leading to an increase in Arctic greenness and a greater abundance of plants that emit biogenic volatile organic compoun ...

Revisiting the concept of extents for chemical reaction systems using an enthalpy balance

Dominique Bonvin, Diogo Filipe Mateus Rodrigues

For the investigation of complex reaction systems, it has been proposed to decouple the various rate processes using a linear time-invariant transformation that is constructed from knowledge of stoichiometry, reaction enthalpies, inlet compositions and tem ...

Shedding Light on the Basis Set Dependence of the Minnesota Functionals: Differences Between Plane Waves, Slater Functions, and Gaussians

Ursula Röthlisberger, Martin Peter Bircher, Pablo Lopez Tarifa

The Minnesota family of exchange-correlation (xc) functionals are among the most popular, accurate, and abundantly used functionals available to date. However, their use in plane-wave based first-principles MD has been limited by their sparse availability. ...

Improving Performance and Accuracy of Hybrid-Functional Based Molecular Dynamics in Plane Waves

Martin Peter Bircher

The simulation of condensed matter in first principles Molecular Dynamics (FPMD) heavily relies on Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory (KS-DFT) calculations. The accuracy of such simulations is governed by the reliability of the underlying potential energy ...
