Thin Liquid Film Dynamics on a Spinning Spheroid

Edouard Boujo

The present work explores the impact of rotation on the dynamics of a thin liquid layer deposited on a spheroid (bi-axial ellipsoid) rotating around its vertical axis. An evolution equation based on the lubrication approximation was derived, which takes in ...

Method for flattening substrates or layers using 3d printing and etching

Niels Quack, Teodoro Graziosi, Marcell Kristof Kiss, Nathanaël Restori

The present invention concerns a layer or substrate flattening method comprising the steps of: - providing a layer or substrate (1) to be flattened; - measuring a topography or surface profile of at least one area (3) of the layer or substrate to be flatte ...

Shapes of rotating normal fluid He-3 versus superfluid He-4 droplets in molecular beams

Christoph Bostedt, Andre Al Haddad

Previous single-pulse extreme ultraviolet and x-ray coherent diffraction studies revealed that superfluid He-4 droplets obtained in a free jet expansion acquire sizable angular momentum, resulting in significant centrifugal distortion. Similar experiments ...

Analysis and Transfer of Human Movement Manipulability in Industry-like Activities

Sylvain Calinon, Noémie Laure Gwendoline Jaquier

Humans exhibit outstanding learning, planning and adaptation capabilities while performing different types of industrial tasks. Given some knowledge about the task requirements, humans are able to plan their limbs motion in anticipation of the execution of ...

A Weak Form Implementation of Nonlinear Axisymmetric Shell Equations With Examples

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Matteo Pezzulla

We present a weak form implementation of the nonlinear axisymmetric shell equations. This implementation is suitable to study the nonlinear deformations of axisymmetric shells, with the capability of considering a general mid-surface shape, non-homogeneous ...

Energy dependent structure of Xe ion tracks in YBCO and the effect on the superconductive properties in magnetic fields

Philippe Buffat, Elena Suvorova Buffat

The morphology and structure of damaged regions (tracks) produced by swift heavy 167, 77, and 46 MeV 132Xe23+ ions in YBCO-based second generation industrial high temperature superconductors wires (2G HTS) were studied using transmission electron microscop ...

Non-contact polishing of single crystal diamond by ion beam etching

Niels Quack, Teodoro Graziosi, Sichen Mi, Adrien Marc Toros

We propose a non-contact surface finishing method for brittle substrates by ion beam etching and we experimentally demonstrate polishing of (100) single crystal diamond surface. We model and simulate the polishing process, and verify the results experiment ...

Numerical modeling of the effects of oil on annular laminar film condensation in minichannels

John Richard Thome

This paper presents a numerical model to predict laminar film condensation heat transfer in small channels of different internal geometries for miscible refrigerant-oil mixtures. The model includes the contributions of surface tension, axial shear stresses ...

Shape-controlled synthesis of silver nanocrystals by X-ray irradiation for inkjet printing

A suite of silver (Ag) nanocrystals have been synthesized using a rapid water radiolysis approach via X-ray irradiation. Various shapes including spheroidal, prism, rod, and multifaceted nanoparticles can be produced by varying the initial concentration of ...

Theory of optical second-harmonic and sum-frequency scattering from arbitrarily shaped particles

Sylvie Roke

We present a theoretical framework for the generation and scattering of second-harmonic and sum-frequency light from the surface of particles of arbitrary shape in the limit of low index of refraction contrast. For homogeneous and isotropic surfaces, light ...

Magnifying perfect lens and superlens design by coordinate transformation

Demetri Psaltis

The coordinate transformation technique is applied to the design of perfect lenses and superlenses. In particular, anisotropic metamaterials that magnify two-dimensional planar images beyond the diffraction limit are designed by the use of oblate spheroida ...

Distance preserving flattening of surface sections

Roger Hersch, Laurent Saroul

Curved cross-sections extracted from medical volume images are useful for analyzing nonplanar anatomic structures such as the aorta arch or the pelvis. For visualization and for performing distance measurements, extracted surface sections need to be adequa ...
