Elastic properties play an important role in neutron stars and white dwarfs. They are crucial for modeling stellar oscillations and different processes in magnetars and in degenerate stars which enter compact binary systems. Using…
This paper presents the calculation of elastic properties of three-dimensional Yukawa or dust crystals using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The elastic properties are computed by deforming (compressing/expanding) the dust crystals…
Monte Carlo simulations of mono-- and polydisperse two--dimensional crystals are reported. The particles in the studied system, interacting through hard--core repulsive Yukawa potential, form a solid phase of hexagonal lattice. The elastic…
We study electrostatic and phonon properties of Yukawa crystals. It is shown that in the harmonic approximation these systems which is in use in the theory dusty plasma can be described analytically by the model from the theory of neutron…
In this paper we investigate the elastic properties of the vortex lattice for a superconducting film of finite thickness. We derive an analytic expression for the compression modulus. The shear modulus is evaluated numerically by using both…
An approach to calculate high-frequency bulk and shear modului of two-dimensional (2D) weakly screened Yukawa fluids and solids is presented. Elastic moduli are directly related to sound velocities and other important characteristics of the…
By mapping the interactions of colloidal particles onto the problem of minimizing areas, the physics of foams can be used to understand the phase diagrams of both charged and fuzzy colloids. We extend this analogy to study the elastic…
New theoretical approaches have been developed for studying and quantitatively describing the elastic properties of cubic blue phases in cholesteric liquid crystals. Within the framework of the Landau-de Gennes theory, using the simplest…
Crystallization of dense matter in neutron star crusts and white dwarf cores may be similar to epitaxial crystal growth in terrestrial laboratories. However in stellar crystals, the spacing between horizontal planes has to gradually…
Elastic properties of the solid regions of neutron star crusts and white dwarfs play an important role in theories of stellar oscillations. Matter in compact stars is presumably polycrystalline and, since the elastic properties of single…
Elastic capsules, prepared from droplets or bubbles attached to a capillary (as in a pendant drop tensiometer), can be deflated by suction through the capillary. We study this deflation and show that a combined analysis of the shape and…
We study the cohesive energy and elastic properties as well as normal modes of the Wigner and bubble crystals of the two-dimensional electron system (2DES) in higher Landau levels. Using a simple Hartree-Fock approach, we show that the…
Collapse modes in compressed simple cubic (SC) and body-centered cubic (BCC) periodic arrangements of elastic frictionless beads were studied numerically using the discrete element method. Under pure hydrostatic compression, the SC…
The first-principles FLAPW-GGA calculations of the elastic properties of recently discovered superconducting LiFeAs are reported. The independent elastic constants (Cij), bulk modulus, compressibility, and shear modulus are evaluated and…
Mechanical and elastic properties of materials are among the most fundamental quantities for many engineering and industrial applications. Here, we present a formulation that is efficient and accurate for calculating the elastic and bending…
The physical mechanism of elasticity of liquid surfaces coated with colloidal particles is proposed. It is suggested that particles are separated by water clearings and the capillary interaction between them is negligible. The case is…
Elastic properties of carbon nanotubes and nanoropes are investigated using an empirical force-constant model. For single and multi-wall nanotubes the elastic moduli are shown to be insensitive to details of the structure such as the…
As is well known, hard-sphere crystals of the fcc and hcp type differ very little in their thermodynamic properties. Nonetheless, recent computer simulations by Pronk and Frenkel indicate that the elastic response to mechanical deformation…
Single crystal elastic constants of bcc iron and bct FeC and FeN alloys, martensites, have been evaluated by ab initio calculations based on the density functional theory. The energy of a strained crystal has been computed using the…
A discrete model describing defects in crystal lattices and having the standard linear anisotropic elasticity as its continuum limit is proposed. The main ingredients entering the model are the elastic stiffness constants of the material…
