How to weave a perfect sphere with curved strips

Mark Pauly, Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Tian Chen, Yingying Ren, Samuel Jean Bernard Poincloux, Francis Julian Panetta

Triaxial weaving, a craft technique that enables the generation of surfaces with tri-directional arrays of initially straight elastic strips, has long been loved by basket makers and artists seeking a combination of practical and aesthetically-pleasing str ...

Vase-Kite Equilibrium of Resorcin[4]arene Cavitands Investigated Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations with Ball-and-Stick Local Elevation Umbrella Sampling

Jovana Milic

A key feature of resorcin[4]arene cavitands is their ability to switch between a closed/contracted (Vase) and an open/expanded (Kite) conformation. The mechanism and dynamics of this interconversion remains, however, elusive. In the present study, the Vase ...

Creation of Faceted Polyhedral Microgels from Compressed Emulsions

Esther Amstad, Jing Fan

Compressed monodisperse emulsions in confined space exhibit highly ordered structures. The influence of the volume fraction and the confinement geometry on the organized structures is investigated and the mechanism by which structural transition occurs is ...

Self-formation of hexagonal nanotemplates for growth of pyramidal quantum dots by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy on patterned substrates

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Benjamin Dwir, Romain Carron, Pascal Gallo, Alessandro Surrente

We demonstrate the self-formation of hexagonal nanotemplates on GaAs (111)B substrates patterned with arrays of inverted tetrahedral pyramids during metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy and its role in producing high-symmetry, site-controlled quantum dots (QD ...

Optimal Hybrid Perimeter and Switching Plans Control for Urban Traffic Networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Jack Haddad, Mohammadreza Hajiahmadi

Since centralized control of urban networks with detailed modeling approaches is computationally complex, developing efficient hierarchical control strategies based on aggregate modeling is of great importance. The dynamics of a heterogeneous large-scale u ...

Probability of twin boundary formation associated with the nucleation of equiaxed grains on icosahedral quasicrystal templates

Michel Rappaz, Güven Kurtuldu

Recently, we have shown that minute Cr additions (typically 0.1 wt%) to Al-Zn alloys solidified in a uniform temperature field lead to the formation of fine equiaxed fcc Al grains [1]. Furthermore, these grains exhibit an unexpectedly large number of twin, ...

Rotor Design Optimization for a Reaction Sphere Actuator

Yves Perriard, Leopoldo Rossini

This paper presents the rotor design optimization for a reaction sphere (RS) actuator. The RS is a permanent-magnet synchronous spherical actuator whose rotor is magnetically levitated and can be accelerated about any desired axis. The RS is composed of an ...

Grain Boundaries in Graphene on SiC(000(1)over-bar) Substrate

Oleg Yazyev, Fernando Gargiulo

Grain boundaries in epitaxial graphene on the SiC(000 (1) over bar) substrate are studied using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. All investigated small-angle grain boundaries show pronounced out-of-plane buckling induced by the strain fields ...

Bowl Inversion of Surface-Adsorbed Sumanene

Bowl-shaped pi-conjugated compounds offer the possibility to study curvature-dependent host-guest interactions and chemical reactivity in ideal model systems. For surface-adsorbed pi bowls, however, only conformations with the bowl opening pointing away fr ...

Hybrid FEM-analytical force and torque models of a reaction sphere actuator

Yves Perriard, Leopoldo Rossini

This paper presents a hybrid FEM-analytical model for the magnetic flux density, the force and torque of a Reaction Sphere (RS) actuator for satellite attitude control. The RS is a permanent magnet synchronous spherical actuator whose rotor is magnetically ...
