The atomic mechanisms of twin boundary migration in copper under externally applied mechanical loads and during thermal annealing are investigated utilizing molecular dynamics computer simulations.
Particular emphasis is laid on the role of externally applied mechanical stresses.
We then stimulated the patches with a series of depolarizing steps (from 0 60 mV in 10 mV increments) in the absence of an externally applied mechanical stimulus.
Based on the formulation, the effects of the fiber stiffness and helical angle as well as externally applied mechanical loads on the voltage-induced torsional deformation were studied in detail.
In this study, we describe the piezotronics effect on the GaN/InN/GaN quantum well, which can induce performances resembling those of topological insulators by a piezoelectric field polarized under the externally applied mechanical strain.
With a mixed background, I lead an interdisciplinary team of engineers, biologists, and physicists, aiming to understand physical properties of the living cell and their impact in health and disease, and externally using mechanical cues to direct developmental process and disease prevention.
The self-heating based vibrothermography (SHVT) is a new non-destructive testing method dedicated for testing of polymer matrix composite structures, where the excitation is performed by externally applied mechanical vibrations in a low frequency range.
One is the observation of very large oscillations of anodic potential during anodization of silicon in H3PO4/HF electrolyte and another is the effect of externally applied mechanical stress onto the kinetics of the Si anodization in concentrated and diluted HF.
It is shown that an externally applied mechanical stress field can drastically change grain growth as well as recrystallization kinetics and can strongly influence the microstructure evolution, so that the application of mechanical stresses during annealing can be used as a new approach in the field of grain boundary engineering.
