Self-Dual Bending Theory for Vesicles
Jerome Benoit, Elizabeth von Hauff, Avadh Saxena
We present a self-dual bending theory that may enable a better understanding of highly nonlinear global behavior observed in biological vesicles. Adopting this topological approach…
Mechanism for BCC to HCP Transformation: Generalization of the Burgers Model
S. G. Srinivasan, D. M. Hatch, H. T. Stokes +3
Many structural transformations involve a group-nonsubgroup relationship between the initial and transformed phases, and hence are beyond the purview of conventional Landau theory.…
Elastic Deformation of Polycrystals
Rajeev Ahluwalia, Turab Lookman, Avadh Saxena
We propose a framework to model elastic properties of polycrystals by coupling crystal orientational degrees of freedom with elastic strains. Our model encodes crystal symmetries a…
Magnetic-field dependence of electron spin relaxation in n-type semiconductors
Franz X. Bronold, Ivar Martin, Avadh Saxena +1
We present a theoretical investigation of the magnetic field dependence of the longitudinal () and transverse () spin relaxation times of conduction band electrons in n-t…
A new paradigm for modulated phases in multi-stage structural transformations
T. Castan, A. Planes, A. Saxena
For multi-stage, displacive structural transitions we present a general framework that accounts for various intermediate modulated phases, elastic constant, phonon and related ther…
Glassy behavior in systems with Kac-type step-function interaction
Kok-Kiong Loh, Kyozi Kawasaki, Alan R. Bishop +4
We study a system with a weak, long-range repulsive Kac-type step-function interaction within the framework of a replicated effective -theory. The occurrence of extensive conf…
Interaction of a Discrete Breather with a Lattice Junction
Ioana Bena, Avadh Saxena, Jose Maria Sancho
We study the scattering of a moving discrete breather (DB) on a junction in a Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) chain consisting of two segments with different masses of the particles. We con…
