We report an experimental study of the emergence of nontrivial topological winding and long-range order across the paramagnetic-to-skyrmion lattice transition in the transition metal helimagnet MnSi. Combining measurements of the susceptibility with small- ...
In this work, we consider open-boundary conditions at high temperatures, as they can potentially be of help to measure the topological susceptibility. In particular, we measure the extent of the boundary effects at T = 1.5T(C) and T = 2.7T(C). In the first ...
We report a type of structural phase transitions in dielectric materials: the triggered incommensurate (IC) transition. We demonstrate evidence for such a transition in the perovskite antiferroelectric PbHfO3 by means of single-crystal x-ray diffraction, d ...
A new numerically-based method suitable for determining the total strain energy release rate (SERA) involved in two-dimensional (2D) Mode I-dominated delamination under opening loads in FRP laminates is presented. The method is based on the mutual dependen ...
In the context of the energy transition, the optimization of building envelopes plays a substantial role in reducing global energy consumption and meeting climate targets. Now, a dynamic photovoltaic building envelope has been demonstrated to improve build ...
Manufacturing of red gold components relies widely on controlling the formation of ordered precipitates during thermo-mechanical processing. The ordered phase hardens the material, makes it less workable and introduces residual stresses. We show that an in ...
Flexible polymer additives are known to reduce the energy dissipation and friction drag in turbulent flows. As the fluid elasticity increases, the flow undergoes several stages of transitions. Much attention in the area has been focused on the onset of dra ...
The onset of rapid slip along initially quiescent frictional interfaces, the process of “earthquake nucleation,” and dissipative spatiotemporal slippage dynamics play important roles in a broad range of physical systems. Here we first show that interfaces ...
Nematic elastomers and glasses deform spontaneously when subjected to temperature changes. This property can be exploited in the design of heterogeneously patterned thin sheets that deform into a non-trivial shape when heated or cooled. In this paper, we s ...
In the current study, the glass transition and tensile behavior of three different cold-curing two-component epoxies, commercially available as structural adhesives for carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) strengthening of concrete and steel structures, ...
