Parallelization of the distinct lattice spring model

Jiannong Fang, Liang Sun, Jian Zhao, Gaofeng Zhao

The distinct lattice spring model (DLSM) is a newly developed numerical tool for modeling rock dynamics problems, i.e. dynamic failure and wave propagation. In this paper, parallelization of DLSM is presented. With the development of parallel computing tec ...

Near-field study of dielectric surface lens

Hans Peter Herzig, Vincent Paeder, Elsie Barakat, Libo Yu

In this work, we design, fabricate and experimentally characterize a surface structured lens within an ultra thin polymer layer deposited on a Bloch Surface Waves (BSWs) suspended dielectric platform. The near-field (SNOM) measurements demonstrate that the ...

A Natural Helical Crystal Lattice Model for Carbon Nanotubes

Nicola Marzari

We propose a novel helical crystal lattice model for chiral and achiral carbon nanotubes (CNTs) where the unit cell and the helical crystal vector are defined in a unique and systematic manner for arbitrary CNTs. The small unit cell of this helical crystal ...

A MATLAB-based tool for visualizing the plane wave propagation in multilayer structures containing metamaterials

Juan Ramon Mosig

The paper reports on a graphical user interface developed in MATLAB to aid the visualization of the plane wave impinging from a lossless half-space onto a multilayer structure. Individual layers are assumed to be homogeneous and isotropic with electric per ...

2D Optics on Bloch Surface Waves (BSWs) Based Platform: Polymer Lens and Prism

Hans Peter Herzig, Vincent Paeder, Libo Yu, Tristan Sfez

In this work, we use a novel platform concept based on Bloch Surface Waves (BSWs) and manipulate the BSWs propagation with two-dimensional (2D) dielectric patterns deposited on it. The concept opens a way to realize 2D integrated all-optics systems includi ...

Mode conversion from quantized to propagating spin waves in a rhombic antidot lattice supporting spin wave nanochannels

Dirk Grundler

We report spin wave excitations in a nanopatterned antidot lattice fabricated from a 30-nm thick Ni80Fe20 film. The 250-nm-wide circular holes are arranged in a rhombic unit cell with a lattice constant of 400 nm. By Brillouin light scattering, we find tha ...

Wave propagation across rock joints filled with viscoelastic medium using modified recursive method

Jian Zhao, Wei Wu, Jianbo Zhu

Rock joints have significant effects on wave propagation. When the joints are filled with saturated sand or clay, the filling materials exhibit viscoelastic behavior on wave propagation. In the present study, wave propagation across single and multiple par ...

Some Fundamental Issues and Verification of 3DEC in Modeling Wave Propagation in Jointed Rock Masses

Jian Zhao, Jianbo Zhu

Discontinuities in rock masses greatly influence stress wave transmission. Before performing numerical modeling on complicated cases, benchmarking modeling must be performed first to validate the numerical code through comparison with theoretical solutions ...

Generic and patient-specific models of the arterial tree

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Philippe Reymond, Orestis Vardoulis

Recent advance in imaging modalities used frequently in clinical routine can provide description of the geometrical and hemodynamical properties of the arterial tree in great detail. The combination of such information with models of blood flow of the arte ...

Vanishing of the metal-insulator Peierls transition in pressurized BaVS3

Helmuth Berger

BaVS3 presents a metal-to-insulator (MI) transition at ambient pressure due to the stabilization of a 2k(F) commensurate charge density wave (CDW) Peierls ground state built on the dz(2) V orbitals. The MI transition vanishes under pressure at a quantum cr ...
