Explanation of Optical Force and Torque on Nanomotors as the Interplay of Huygens Sources

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Mintae Chung

Being able to understand how optical forces emerge from the interaction of light with matter is paramount for controlling the motion of nanoparticles as well as powering nanomotors. The purpose of this work is to uncover the physical mechanisms at the orig ...

Load cell with positive, negative and zero stiffness operating modes for milli- to nanonewton contact force monitoring in electrical probing

Michal Stanislaw Smreczak

Monolithic integrated circuits (ICs) have been miniaturized over the past five decades, and today their components range in size from hundreds of microns to several nanometers. Making point contact with electrical samples under a microscope is referred to ...

Dynamics of entrapped microbubbles with multiple openings

Mahmut Selman Sakar, Murat Kaynak, Amit Yedidia Dolev

Microbubbles excited by acoustic fields inside water oscillate, and generate acoustic radiation forces and drag-induced acoustic streaming. These forces can be harnessed in various biomedical applications such as targeted drug delivery and on-chip biomanip ...

Motile dislocations knead odd crystals into whorls

Sofia Magkiriadou, Alexis Poncet

The competition between thermal fluctuations and potential forces governs the stability of matter in equilibrium, in particular the proliferation and annihilation of topological defects. However, driving matter out of equilibrium allows for a new class of ...

STATE FICTION. Neutral Only on the Outside

Denise Bertschi

Under the title "State Fiction" (2014–2021) the artist's long-term research focusses on the zone that divides the two Koreas, a locus of congealed international Cold War interests and a source of improbable images. After an internationally brokered armisti ...

self-published2021

This study presents a general approach to the topology design of tensegrities with rigid bodies. To the best of the authors' knowledge, all existing topology design methods of tensegrities focus on tensegrities that only consist of members carrying axial f ...

Arm-hand motion-force coordination for physical interactions with non-flat surfaces using dynamical systems: Toward compliant robotic massage

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Seyed Sina Mirrazavi Salehian, Aileen Charlotte Naef, Karl Gustav Henriks

Many manipulation tasks require coordinated motions for arm and fingers. Complexity increases when the task requires to control for the force at contact against a non-flat surface; This becomes even more challenging when this contact is done on a human. Al ...

Traction Forces Control Cell-Edge Dynamics and Mediate Distance Sensitivity during Cell Polarization

Franck Claude Raynaud, Alicia Carine Bornert, Zeno Messi

Traction forces are generated by cellular actin-myosin system and transmitted to the environment through adhesions. They are believed to drive cell motion, shape changes, and extracellular matrix remodeling [1 -3] . However, most of the traction force anal ...

Effect of building overtopping on induced loads during extreme hydrodynamic events

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich, Ioan Nistor

Tsunamis, impulse-waves and dam-break waves have affected humanity in recent decades and the construction of vertical shelters can provide safety to people. However, for non-critical infrastructures, typically residential houses of lower height, overtoppin ...
