QCD worldsheet axion from the bootstrap
Andrea Guerrieri, Victor Gorbenko
The worldsheet axion plays a crucial role in the dynamics of the Yang-Mills confining flux tubes. According to the lattice measurements, its mass is of order the string tension and its coupling is close to a certain critical value. Using the S-matrix Boots ...
New York2024Tension-tension fatigue behavior of basalt composite hybrid joints
Thomas Keller, Lulu Liu, Xin Wang
The tension–tension fatigue behavior of pseudo-ductile hybrid bonded-bolted double lap basalt composite joints, composed of pseudo-ductile adhesives and adherends with multi-directional fiber architecture, was experimentally investigated. The fatigue damag ...
2024Deformation response of highly stretchable and ductile graphene kirigami under uniaxial and biaxial tension
Kirigami, the ancient technique of paper cutting, has been successfully applied to enhance the stretchability and ductility of nanoscale graphene. However, existing experimentally realized graphene kirigami (GK) are created by introducing parallel cuts, ex ...
College Pk2023Elastic limit tensile stress of UHPFRC: Method of determination and effect of fiber orientation
Eugen Brühwiler, Emmanuel Denarié, Jian Zhan
This paper discusses the influence of fiber orientation on elastic limit tensile stress of ultra-high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites (UHPFRC). An original model relating elastic limit tensile stress to fiber orientation is proposed, a ...
2023Quantitative study of the thickness-dependent stress in indium tin oxide thin films
A quantitative analysis of stress in indium tin oxide (ITO) films with varying thicknesses was conducted using high-precision stylus profilometry. The experimental results revealed a transition of the stress type from tensile to compressive as the ITO film ...
Lausanne2023Wetting Dynamics Beneath an Impacting Droplet
Many natural and industrial processes involve fluid flow at a three phase interface between liquid, solid and gas. When the liquid is forced to move rapidly over the solid surface, the physical mechanisms governing contact line motions are multi-phase and ...
EPFL2023Tailored deformation behavior of 304L stainless steel through control of the crystallographic texture with laser-powder bed fusion
Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Efthymios Polatidis, Markus Strobl
Laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) has gained significant research interest, not only for its profound advantage of producing near-net shape complex geometries of metallic parts, but also for the possibility of producing tailored microstructures. Here we expl ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2022Exploration of auxetics materials in sport
Thibault Antoine Marie Joseph Ghesquière-Diérickx, Nicolas Tireford
A special property of auxetic materials is their negative Poisson’s ratio : this material shortens or lengthen in all directions when subjected respectively to a compressive or tensile force. This unusual characteristic opens up new perspectives in many fi ...
2021Damage-driven strain localisation in networks of fibres: A computational homogenisation approach
Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Felipe Figueredo Rocha
In many applications, such as textiles, fibreglass, paper and several kinds of biological fibrous tissues, the main load-bearing constituents at the micro-scale are arranged as a fibre network. In these materials, rupture is usually driven by micro-mechani ...
2021Pseudomomentum: origins and consequences
The balance of pseudomomentum is discussed and applied to simple elasticity, ideal fluids, and the mechanics of inextensible rods and sheets. A general framework is presented in which the simultaneous variation of an action with respect to position, time, ...
