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 ...

Reinforced Supramolecular Networks of End Functionalized Polymers for Tailored Thermomechanical Property Profiles

Yevhen Hryshunin

Thermoset rubbers give rise to elastomers with tunable stiffness and high resilience but are not recyclable. Thermoplastic elastomers can address this problem but their broad applicability is impeded by either limited operating temperatures or inferior ela ...

Temperature Dependent Properties of the Aqueous Electron

Alfredo Pasquarello, Jinggang Lan

The temperature-dependent properties of the aqueous electron have been extensively studied using mixed quantum-classical simulations in a wide range of thermodynamic conditions based on one-electron pseudopotentials. While the cavity model appears to expla ...

Controlling surface effects in extremely high aspect ratio gold plasmonic electrodes

Olivier Martin, Christian Santschi, Marco Riccardi

Nanofabrication is key to many technological advances, especially the challenge of merging nanophotonics with electronics. Here, we investigate the fabrication process of plasmonic interdigitated gold electrodes having a very high aspect ratio (i.e. long a ...

Unified Green's function approach for spectral and thermodynamic properties from algorithmic inversion of dynamical potentials

Nicola Marzari, Tommaso Chiarotti, Andrea Ferretti

Dynamical potentials appear in many advanced electronic-structure methods, including self-energies from many-body perturbation theory, dynamical mean-field theory, electronic-transport formulations, and many embedding approaches. Here, we propose a novel t ...

Site-selective overgrowth of Ag nanocrystals by Polyvinylpyrrolidone-mediated atom deposition by Ostwald ripening

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Alejandro Lapresta Fernandez

The growth modulation of metal nanocrystals (NCs) by Ostwald ripening (OR) involves control of the relocation of matter by diffusional mass transfer from the dissolution of small nanocrystals (SNCs) towards large nanocrystals whose surface energy is lower. ...

Temperature- and pressure-dependence of the hydrogen bond network in plastic ice VII

Livia Eleonora Bove Kado, Umbertoluca Ranieri, Maria Rescigno

We model, via classical molecular dynamics simulations, the plastic phase of ice VII across a wide range of the phase diagram of interest for planetary investigations. Although structural and dynamical properties of plastic ice VII are mostly independent o ...

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 ...

Molten globule-like transition state of protein barnase measured with calorimetric force spectroscopy

Sebastian James Davis

Understanding how proteins fold into their native structure is a fundamental problem in biophysics, crucial for protein design. It has been hypothesized that the formation of a molten globule intermediate precedes folding to the native conformation of glob ...
