By modifying and extending recent ideas [C. Seoanez et al., Europhys. Lett. 78, 60002 (2007)], a theoretical framework to describe dissipation processes in the surfaces of vibrating micro- and nanoelectromechanical devices, thought to be…

Creep-fatigue interaction in single-crystal nickel superalloys is difficult to predict because the response depends on the combined effects of loading parameters, hold time, temperature, and the underlying deformation mechanisms. This is…

We carry out strain-controlled in-situ compression experiments of micron-sized tungsten (W) micropillars in the temperature range 300-900 K, together with simulations of three-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) at the same…

We report the lithium plating associated capacity loss during fast charging of compressively loaded lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The charging and discharging of LIB under compressive loading during service may affect the cell performance…

Simulations of undulatory swimming in viscoelastic fluids with large amplitude gaits show concentration of polymer elastic stress at the tips of the swimmers.We use a series of related theoretical investigations to probe the origin of these…

We present a physics-based model that accurately predicts the performance of Medtronic's implantable medical device battery lithium/carbon monofluoride (CF$_x$) - silver vanadium oxide (SVO) under both low-rate background monitoring and…

The question of whether static stress in fused silica relaxes at room temperature is still under debate. Here, we report experimental data investigating stress relaxation dynamics in fused silica at room temperature and up to 2 GPa stress…

Solid CS$_{2}$ is superficially similar to CO$_{2}$, with the same $Cmca$ molecular crystal structure at low pressures, which has suggested similar phases also at high pressures. We carried out an extensive first principles evolutionary…

First we present and theoretically analyze the phenomenological physical picture behind Vibration-Induced Conductivity Fluctuations. We identify the relevant tensors characterizing the electromechanical response against the vibrations for…

The closed analytical expression for the electron density of states function in a rectangular lattice is derived in an elementary way in terms of complete elliptic integrals of the first kind. The lattice can be treated as a deformed square…

We explore the effects of stress on silicon donor bound exciton ($\mathrm{D^0X}$) transitions in bulk silicon and in microfabricated silicon devices. We first study $\mathrm{D^0X}$ transitions in an isotopically purified silicon-28 bulk…

A micromechanical model at the microscale within a crystal plasticity self-consistent model, is used to analyse loading histories in Type 316H stainless steel, common to structural components in high-temperature power plants. The study…

Lithium metal batteries (LMBs), when coupled with a localized high-concentration electrolyte and a high-voltage nickel-rich cathode, offer a solution to the increasing demand for high energy density and long cycle life. However, the…

We study spin accumulation in an aluminium island, in which the injection of a spin current and the detection of the spin accumulation are done by means of four cobalt electrodes that connect to the island through transparent tunnel…

The geometric properties of $\mathrm{Pb-MnO_2}$ composite electrodes are studied, and a general formula is presented for the length of the triple phase boundary (TPB) on two dimensional (2D) composite electrodes using sphere packing and…

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed to investigate the fatigue deformation behaviour of polycrystalline Cu with grain size of 5.4 nm. The samples were prepared using Voronoi algorithm with random grain orientations.…

Superelastic NiTi 1 shape memory alloy (SMA) wire was subjected to thermomechanical loading tests in tension to evaluate stress and temperature conditions under which the wire deforms plastically. Although the alloy demonstrated a very high…

Piezoresponse Force Microscopy (PFM) and Electrochemical Strain Microscopy (ESM) are two related techniques that have had considerable success in nano-scale probing of functional material properties. Both measure the strain of the sample in…

We present electrical resistivity measurements on the prototypical heavy-fermion metal YbRh$_{2}$Si$_{2}$ (YRS) under $a$-axis tensile and compressive strain and focus on the evolution of the resistivity maximum near 136~K that arises from…

We extend the density-functional theory for superconductors (SCDFT) to take account of the dynamical structure of the screened Coulomb interaction. We construct an exchange-correlation kernel in the SCDFT gap equation on the basis of the…
