چکیده

We investigate a longitudinally loaded elastic nanorod inside a cylindrical channel and show within the context of classical elasticity theory that the Euler buckling instability leads to a helical postbuckling form of the rod within the channel. The local pitch of the confined helix changes along the channel and so does the longitudinal force transmitted along the rod, diminishing away from the loaded end. This creates a possibility of jamming of the nanorod within the channel.

We suggest to use ‘fluctuation spectroscopy’ as a method to detect granularity in a disordered metal close to a superconducting transition. We show that with lowering temperature T the resistance R(T ) of a system of relatively large grains initially grows due to the fluctuation suppression of the one-electron tunneling but decreases with further lowering T due to the coherent charge transfer o...

Using a simple and generic molecular dynamics model, we study the damage in a disk of interacting particles as the disc fragments upon impact with a wall. The damage, defined as the ratio of the number of bonds broken by the impact to the initial number of bonds, is found to increase logarithmically with the energy deposited in the system. This result implies a linear growth with damage for the...

We investigate the ordered morphologies occurring in thin-films diblock copolymer. For temperatures above the order-disorder transition and for an arbitrary two-dimensional surface pattern, we use a Ginzburg-Landau expansion of the free energy to obtain a linear response description of the copolymer melt. The ordering in the directions perpendicular and parallel to the surface are coupled. Thre...
