A reduced-order, rotation-based model for thin hard-magnetic plates

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Dong Yan, Bastien Freddy Gustave Aymon

We develop a reduced-order model for thin plates made of hard magnetorheological elastomers (hard-MREs), which are composed of hard-magnetic particles embedded in a polymeric matrix. First, we propose a new magnetic potential, as an alternative to an exist ...

Automated test setup to quantify the lifetime of dielectric elastomer actuators under a wide range of operating conditions

Herbert Shea, Fabio Beco Albuquerque, Djen Timo Kühnel, Valentin Colin Py

We present an automated test setup for the systematic performance and lifetime evaluation of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs). This setup, called the MAPLE setup, performs accelerated aging tests and allows quantifying how material choice, fabrication ...

A formula for the admittance of laterally excited bulk wave resonators (XBARs)

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Soumya Yandrapalli, Victor Plessky

The recently invented laterally excited bulk wave resonators (XBARs) demonstrate outstanding parameters suitable for the design of low loss filters for the fifth generation of mobile phones. The operation of XBARs can be interpreted as an excitation of ant ...

The Polarity Reversal of Lightning‐Generated Sky Wave

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Wenhao Hou

The polarity reversal of the lightning‐generated first sky wave as a function of the observation distance is studied using a novel approach combining the finite‐difference time domain (FDTD) method and the superposition principle of electromagnetic waves. ...

Two Possible Scenarios for the Formation of Category 1 Bipolar Lightning Flashes

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Davide Pavanello, Qi Li

We present and discuss the current and electric field waveforms associated with two upward bipolar lightning flashes that occurred at the Säntis Tower. According to the traditional classification of bipolar flashes, both observed flashes could be classifie ...

Magnetic Stability of Single Lanthanide Atoms on Graphene

Romana Baltic

This thesis presents a study of the magnetism of surface supported atoms performed principally with XMCD spectroscopy and multiplet calculations. The objective of the research was twofold: first, to study the underlying interactions and conditions governi ...

Spin dynamics of coupled spin ladders near quantum criticality in Ba2CuTeO6

Frédéric Mila

We report inelastic neutron scattering measurements of the magnetic excitations in Ba2CuTeO6, proposed by ab initio calculations to magnetically realize weakly coupled antiferromagnetic two-leg spin-1/2 ladders. Isolated ladders are expected to have a sing ...

Cold pulse and rotation reversals with turbulence spreading and residual stress

Ning Yan

Transport modeling based on inclusion of turbulence spreading and residual stresses shows internal rotation reversals and polarity reversal of cold pulses, with a clear indication of nonlocal transport effects due to fast spreading in the turbulence intens ...

The sediment-contact test using the ostracod Heterocypris incongruens: Effect of fine sediments and determination of toxicity thresholds

Rebecca Bebon

The toxicity test using freshwater ostracods of the species Heterocypris incongruens is a sub-chronic static test that exposes individuals to whole sediments over a period of 6 d, the endpoints being mortality and growth. We tested the hypothesis that endp ...

Cyclic Hypervalent Iodine Reagents and Pd-Catalysis

Maria Victoria Vita

Developing new strategies and methods to explore new dimensions of the chemical space represents an important goal for organic chemists. One particular synthetic approach that emerged in the last decades is Umpolung: the normal polarity of chemical functio ...
