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 ...

Precipitation, Characterization, Kinetic, and Thermodynamic Modelling of Synthetic C-S-H Systems (C-S-H, CASH, CSH+$)

Maya Nicole Harris

This thesis investigates the effects of aluminates, sulfates, and heterogeneous substrates on the nucleation and growth of synthetic calcium-silicate-hydrates (C-S-H) produced by dropwise precipitation. The use of synthetic C-S-H, separate from other cemen ...

Centralized power generation with carbon capture on decommissioned offshore petroleum platforms

The existing cogeneration systems on offshore petroleum platforms face clashing targets intrinsic to offshore applications, namely, weight, area, cost and efficiency. Moreover, the prolonged offdesign operating conditions during their lifetime further incr ...

Factors affecting the reactivity of slag at early and late ages

Karen Scrivener, Yosra Briki, Mohsen Ben Haha

This study investigates the difference between the reactivity of slag in NaOH solution (w/s = 100) and in cement paste (w/b = 0.4). The reactivity of slag is much higher in NaOH solution than in cement paste. When the NaOH solution is saturated with portla ...

Centralized power generation with carbon capture on decommissioned offshore petroleum platforms

Daniel Alexander Florez Orrego

In this work, an offshore central power station is designed for supplying the electricity required during the lifetime of four identical productive floating, production, storage and offloading units (FPSO), aiming to increase the efficiency and alleviate t ...

i-PI 2.0: A universal force engine for advanced molecular simulations

Michele Ceriotti, David Mark Wilkins, Bingqing Cheng, Venkat Kapil, Riccardo Petraglia, Gareth Aneurin Tribello, Mariana Rossi Carvalho, Benjamin Aaron Helfrecht, Robert Horst Meissner, Alice Cuzzocrea, Sébastien Pierre Bienvenue, Przemyslaw Juda, Wei Fang

Progress in the atomic-scale modeling of matter over the past decade has been tremendous. This progress has been brought about by improvements in methods for evaluating interatomic forces that work by either solving the electronic structure problem explici ...

Thermodynamic properties of the Shastry-Sutherland model throughout the dimer-product phase

Frédéric Mila, Bruce Normand

The thermodynamic properties of the Shastry-Sutherland model have posed one of the longest-lasting conundrums in frustrated quantum magnetism. Over a wide range on both sides of the quantum phase transition (QPT) from the dimer-product state to the plaquet ...

EEG signatures of schizophrenia: visual backward masking and microstates

Janir Nuno Ramos Antunes Da Cruz

Schizophrenia is a complex and devastating mental disorder that influences how one behaves, feels, and thinks. It affects a little less than 1 % of the world population and it is understood to be partly genetically mediated. Several genetic risk factors of ...

The morning commute in urban areas with heterogeneous trip lengths

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Raphael Ali Francis Lamotte

This paper investigates the equilibrium properties of the morning commute problem at the network level with heterogeneous trip lengths. Congestion is modeled with a Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram relating the space-mean speed of a network to the vehicular ...

Flat-Histogram Monte Carlo as an Efficient Tool To Evaluate Adsorption Processes Involving Rigid and Deformable Molecules

Berend Smit, Matthew David Witman

Monte Carlo simulations are the foundational technique for predicting thermodynamic properties of open systems where the process of interest involves the exchange of particles. Thus, they have been used extensively to computationally evaluate the adsorptio ...
