Approach-to-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations have been used to study thermal transport in nanocrystalline graphene sheets. Nanostructured graphene has been created using an iterative process for grain growth from initial seeds…
We consider the Grover walk on the infinite graph in which an internal finite subgraph receives the inflow from the outside with some frequency and also radiates the outflow to the outside. To characterize the stationary state of this…
We introduce a numerical tensor-network method to compute the statistics of the charge transferred across an interface partitioning an interacting one-dimensional many-body lattice system with $U(1)$ symmetry. Our approach is based on a…
Amidst the growing interest in nonparametric regression, we address a significant challenge in Gaussian processes(GP) applied to manifold-based predictors. Existing methods primarily focus on low dimensional constrained domains for heat…
A recently developed model that unifies the ballistic and diffusive transport mechanisms is applied in a theoretical study of carrier transport across potential barriers at grain boundaries in microcrystalline semiconducting materials. In…
We study overdamped stochastic dynamics confined by hard reflecting boundaries and show that the combination of boundary geometry and an anisotropic diffusion tensor generically generates directed motion. At the level of individual…
The properties of confined granular flows are studied through discrete numerical simulations. Two types of flows with different boundaries are compared: (i) gravity-driven flows topped with a free surface and over a base where erosion…
Grain-boundary (GB) dynamics control the stability, mechanical, and functional response of nanocrystalline materials, but direct experimental access to their slow non-equilibrium motion has been limited. Here we establish X-ray photon…
This study investigates optical activity and quantum transport in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) systems, demonstrating that the former results from spatial dispersion effects. The transfer matrix method is used to solve the propagation of…
Conventional grain growth is rate-limited by the mobility of grain boundary. To describe similar phenomena limited by the mobility of other grain junctions, we have developed a general theory allowing for size-dependent mobility and its…
Understanding the grain boundary deformation dynamics is very crucial to designing materials with stable microstructures. With this quest, the deformation behavior of coherent twin boundary under cyclic shear loading has been studied in…
The propagation of a heat pulse in a single crystal and across grain boundaries (GBs) is simulated using a concurrent atomistic-continuum method furnished with a coherent phonon pulse model. With a heat pulse constructed based on a…
Chiral fluids, for which the mobility tensor has antisymmetric, off-diagonal components, exhibit transport phenomena absent in conventional systems, including interaction-enhanced diffusion and negative mobility. While these effects have…
The control of solute segregation at grain boundaries (GBs) is essential in engineering alloy properties, however the structure-activity relationship of the key parameter-the segregation energies-still remains elusive. Here we propose the…
We have investigated single grain boundaries (GBs) isolated in coated conductors produced by Metal-Organic Deposition (MOD). When a magnetic field is swept in the film plane, an angle-dependent crossover from boundary to grain limited…
The first nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations of electron internal transport barriers (e-ITBs) in the National Spherical Torus Experiment show that reversed magnetic shear can suppress thermal transport by increasing the nonlinear critical…
We study the motion of a grain boundary that separates two sets of mutually perpendicular rolls in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection above onset. The problem is treated either analytically from the corresponding amplitude equations, or…
Previous research focused on two different mechanisms of microstructure stabilization in alloys: thermodynamic stabilization by reducing the grain boundary (GB) free energy and kinetic stabilization by suppressing the GB mobility by solute…
The boundary Green's function (bGF) approach has been established as a powerful theoretical technique for computing the transport properties of tunnel-coupled hybrid nanowire devices. Such nanowires may exhibit topologically nontrivial…
Previous studies demonstrate that grain-boundary sliding could accelerate creep rate and give rise to large internal stresses that can lead to damage development, e.g. formation of wedge cracks. The present study provides more insight into…
