Geometry-driven folding of a floating annular sheet
Joseph D. Paulsen, Vincent Démery, K. Buğra Toga +4
Predicting the large-amplitude deformations of thin elastic sheets is difficult due to the complications of self-contact, geometric nonlinearities, and a multitude of low-lying ene…
Thermoresponsive Toughening in LCST-Type Hydrogels: Comparison between Semi-Interpenetrated and Grafted Networks
Hui Guo, Nicolas Sanson, Alba Marcellan +1
Hydrophilic and LCST polymer chains, poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) (PDMA) and poly(Nisopropylacrylamide)(PNIPA), were combined in semi-interpenetrated architectures toinvestigate th…
Van der Waals interaction between a moving nano-cylinder and a liquid thin film
René Ledesma-Alonso, Elie Raphaël, Thomas Salez +2
We study the static and dynamic interaction between a horizontal cylindrical nano-probe and a thin liquid film. The effects of the physical and geometrical parameters, with a speci…
Anomalous Nernst and Righi-Leduc effects in MnSn: Berry curvature and entropy flow
Xiaokang Li, Liangcai Xu, Linchao Ding +5
We present a study of electric, thermal and thermoelectric response in noncollinear antiferromagnet MnSn, which hosts a large Anomalous Hall Effect (AHE). Berry curvature gen…
Bi-stability resistant to fluctuations
Matthieu Caruel, Lev Truskinovsky
We study a simple micro-mechanical device that does not lose its snap-through behavior in an environment dominated by fluctuations. The main idea is to have several degrees of free…
Upper Limits on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +992
A wide variety of astrophysical and cosmological sources are expected to contribute to a stochastic gravitational-wave background. Following the observations of GW150914 and GW1512…
