Dielectric function of spherical dome shells with quantum size effects.
Metallic spherical dome shells have received much attention in recent years because they have proven to possess highly impressive optical properties. The expected distinctive changes occurring owing to quantum confinement of conduction electrons in these nanoparticles as their thickness is reduced, have not been properly investigated. Here we carry out a detailed analytical derivation of the qu...
متن کاملOPTIMAL DESIGN OF SHELLS WITH STEP-FUNCTION DISTRIBUTION OF THICKNESS
The paper is concerned with a methodology of optimal design of shells of minimum weight with strength, stability and strain constraints. Stress and strain state of the shell is determined by Galerkin method in the mixed finite element formulation within the geometrically nonlinear theory. The analysis of the effectiveness of different optimization algorithms to solve the set problem is given. T...
متن کاملSpherical nematic shells with a threefold valence.
We present a theoretical study of the energetics of thin nematic shells with two charge-one-half defects and one charge-one defect. We determine the optimal arrangement: the defects are located on a great circle at the vertices of an isosceles triangle with angles of 66^{∘} at the charge-one-half defects and a distinct angle of 48^{∘}, consistent with experimental findings. We also analyze ther...
متن کاملDielectric control of spin in semiconductor spherical quantum dots
The ground state electronic configuration of semiconductor spherical quantum dots populated with different numbers of excess electrons, for different radii and dielectric constants of the embedding medium is calculated and the corresponding phase diagram drawn. To this end, an extension of the spin density functional theory to study systems with variable effective mass and dielectric constant i...
متن کاملBuckling of Spherical Shells Revisited
A study is presented of the post-buckling behavior and imperfection-sensitivity of complete spherical shells subject to uniform external pressure. The study builds on and extends the major contribution to spherical shell buckling by W.T. Koiter in the 1960’s. Numerical results are presented for the axisymmetric large deflection behavior of perfect spheres followed by an extensive analysis of th...
