The effects of cooling rate on particle rearrangement statistics: Rapidly cooled glasses are more ductile and less reversible
Meng Fan, Minglei Wang, Kai Zhang +4
Amorphous solids, such as metallic, polymeric, and colloidal glasses, display complex spatiotemporal response to applied deformations. In contrast to crystalline solids, during loa…
Particle rearrangement and softening contributions to the nonlinear mechanical response of glasses
Meng Fan, Kai Zhang, Jan Schroers +2
Amorphous materials such as metallic, polymeric, and colloidal glasses, exhibit complex preparation-dependent mechanical response to applied shear. We perform numerical simulations…
Existence and Stability of Positive Periodic Solutions to Functional Differential Equations
Meng Fan, Yang Kuang, Haiyan Wang +1
We establish several delay-independent criteria for the existence and stability of positive periodic solutions of n-dimensional nonautonomous functional differential equation by se…
Beyond packing of hard spheres: The effects of core softness, non-additivity, intermediate-range repulsion, and many-body interactions on the glass-forming ability of bulk metallic glasses
Kai Zhang, Meng Fan, Yanhui Liu +3
When a liquid is cooled well below its melting temperature at a rate that exceeds the critical cooling rate , the crystalline state is bypassed and an amorphous glassy state f…
Nonuniform -dichotomy and Stability of Nonautonomous Discrete Dynamics
Jimin Zhang, Meng Fan, Liu Yang
In this paper, a new notion called the general nonuniform -dichotomy for a sequence of linear operators is proposed, which occurs in a more natural way and is related…
Robust sensor fusion against on-vehicle sensor staleness
Meng Fan, Yifan Zuo, Patrick Blaes +2
Sensor fusion is crucial for a performant and robust Perception system in autonomous vehicles, but sensor staleness, where data from different sensors arrives with varying delays,…
