Spiral cracks without twisting
A fascinating class of patterns, often encountered in nature as wiggling cracks on rocks, dried out fields and tectonic plates, is produced by the fracture of solids 1. Here we report the observation and modeling of an unusual type of patterns consisting of spiral cracks within fragments of a thin layer of drying precipitate. We find that this symmetry-breaking cracking mode arises naturally no...
متن کاملHigh-energy Cyclotrons without Spiral
This paper explores the possibility of reaching high energies in isochronous ring cyclotrons with radial sectors by using negative valley fields to increase the magnetic flutter. A simple model was used to generate field maps for 4-GeV and 13-GeV proton rings, whose orbit properties were then studied using the CYCLOPS equilibrium orbit code. Field maps were also generated for two FFAG designs (...
متن کاملSpiral Surface Growth Without Desorption
Spiral surface growth is well understood in the limit where the step motion is controlled by the local supersaturation of adatoms near the spiral ridge. In epitaxial thin-film growth, however, spirals can form in a step-flow regime where desorption of adatoms is negligible and the ridge dynamics is governed by the non-local diffusion field of adatoms on the whole surface. We investigate this li...
متن کامل3D numerical modelling of twisting cracks under bending and torsion of skew notched beams
The testing of mode III and mixed mode failure is every so often encountered in the dedicated literature of mechanical characterization of brittle and quasi-brittle materials. In this work, the application of the mixed strain displacement ε − u finite element formulation to three examples involving skew notched beams is presented. The use of this FE technology is effective in problems involving...
متن کاملControllability of rolling without twisting or slipping in higher dimensions
We describe how the dynamical system of rolling two n-dimensional connected, oriented Riemannian manifolds M and M̂ without twisting or slipping, can be lifted to a nonholonomic system of elements in the product of the oriented orthonormal frame bundles belonging to the manifolds. By considering the lifted problem and using properties of the elements in the respective principal Ehresmann connect...
