Elastic Coupling between Nonferroelastic Domain Walls

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Petr Yudin, Konstantin Shapovalov

We reveal a strong elastic interaction between nonferroelastic domain walls in ferroelectric thin films. This interaction, having no analogue in bulk materials, is governed by elastic fields that are associated with the domain walls and extends to distance ...

Modelling Plasticity in Nanoscale Contact

Till Junge

The problem of mechanical contact is a truly multiscale one. Atomistic effects that violate continuum theory dominate the deformations of contacting asperities, while the interactions between distant asperities occur through long-range elasticity. This the ...

Multinuclear Cytotoxic Metallodrugs: Physicochemical Characterization and Biological Properties of Novel Heteronuclear Gold-Titanium Complexes

Angela Casini, Olivier Pierre Zava, Michael Groessl, Philippe Richard

An unprecedented series of titanocene-gold bi- and trimetallic complexes of the general formula [(eta(5)-C5H5)-(mu-eta(5):kappa(1)-C5H4(CH2)(n)PPh2)TiCl2AuClx](q+) (n = 0, 2, or 4; m = 1, x =1, q = 0 or m = 2, x = 0, q = 1) have been prepared and char ...

Dislocation-void interaction in Fe: a comparison between molecular dynamics and dislocation dynamics

Robin Schäublin, Seyed Masood Hafez Haghighat

Multiscale modeling, including molecular dynamics (MD) and discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) methods, appears as a signiﬁcant tool for the description of plasticity and mechanical properties of materials. This research concerns the inﬂuence of irradiatio ...

Mechanical behaviour of unsaturated aggregated soils

Azad Koliji

Particle aggregation is a commonly observed phenomenon in many types of soils, such as natural clays and agricultural soils. These soils contain porous aggregates, often separated by large, interaggregate pores. Two levels of intra- and interaggregate poro ...

Two-phase modelling of hot tearing in aluminium alloys using a semi-coupled method

Vincent Mathier

Hot tearing is one of the most severe defects observed in castings, e.g. in billets or sheet ingots of aluminum alloys produced by DC casting. It is due to both tensile strains and a lack of interdendritic feeding in the mushy zone. In order to predict thi ...

Formation of the surface NO during N2O interaction at low temperature with iron-containing ZSM-5

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi

Interaction of N2O at low temps. (473-603 K) with Fe-ZSM-5 zeolites (Fe, 0.01-2.1 wt%) activated by steaming and/or thermal treatment in He at 1323 K was studied by the transient response method and temp.-programmed desorption (TPD). Diffuse reflectance IR ...

Replicated aluminium foam : processing and properties

Jean-François Despois

This thesis explores the processing and properties of microcellular aluminium-based materials produced by replication. It includes the development of a pressure infiltration process for net-shape component production, structural characterization of the foa ...

Scaling of dynamics with the range of interaction in short-range attractive colloids

Giuseppe Foffi, Francesco Sciortino

We numerically study the dependence of the dynamics on the range of interaction Δ for the short-range square well potential. We find that, for small Δ, dynamics scale exactly in the same way as thermodynamics, both for Newtonian and Brownian microscopic dy ...
