Open Celled Material Structural Properties Measurement: From Morphology To Transport Properties

Measurement of Dielectric Material Properties

Recognizing Material Properties from Images

Humans implicitly rely on properties of the materials that make up ordinary objects to guide our interactions. Grasping smooth materials, for example, requires more care than rough ones, and softness is an ideal property for fabric used in bedding. Even when these properties are not purely visual (softness is a physical property of the material), we may still infer the softness of a fabric by l...

Permeability and Thermal Transport in Compressed Open-Celled Foams

A computational methodology is proposed to describe the fluid transport in compressed opencelled metallic foams. Various unit-cell foam geometries are numerically deformed under uniaxial loads using a finite element method. An algorithm is developed and implemented to deform the fluid domain mesh inside the unit-cell foam based on the deformed solid unit-cell geometry. Direct simulations of the...

Structural and transport properties of Nb nanowires

High-resolution conductance measurements in niobium nanowires below the superconducting transition temperature are presented. Results are shown for a complete multistage elongation-compression cycle of a nanoscale contact. We focus on a bistability region which manifests itself as random telegraph noise. Density functional structural optimizations and conductance calculations using the non-equi...
