Phase Transition of a Skeleton Model for Surfaces
نویسنده
چکیده
A spherical model of skeleton with junctions is investigated by Monte Carlo simulations. The model is governed by one-dimensional bending energy. The results indicate that the model undergoes a firstorder transition separating the smooth phase from the crumpled phase. The existence of phase transition indicates that junctions play a nontrivial role in the transition.

Phase transition of triangulated spherical surfaces with elastic skeletons
A first-order transition is numerically found in a spherical surface model with skeletons, which are linked to each other at junctions. The shape of triangulated surfaces is maintained by skeletons, which have a one-dimensional bending elasticity characterized by the bending rigidity b, and the surfaces has no two-dimensional bending elasticity except at the junctions. The surfaces swell and be...
متن کاملPhase transition of the dry friction between crystalline surfaces induced by normal load
A major source of energy dissipation and surface wear is the kinetic friction at the interfaces of sliding bodies. Traditionally, on a macroscopic scale, this undesirable effect is reduced with lubricating the surfaces by introducing oil into their interface. An interesting phenomenon, called superlubricity, has been reported on a nanometer scale where dry (without lubricant oil) fruition and w...
متن کاملPhase transition of triangulated spherical surfaces supported by elastic chains with rigid junctions
A surface model with skeletons is investigated by using the canonical Monte Carlo simulations. The skeleton is composed of linear chains, which are joined to each other at the rigid junctions. A one-dimensional bending energy is defined on the linear chains, and no two-dimensional curvature energy is assumed on the surface. The model undergoes a first-order transition between the smooth phase a...
متن کاملCalculation for Energy of (111) Surfaces of Palladium in Tight Binding Model
In this work calculation of energetics of transition metal surfaces is presented. The tight-binding model is employed in order to calculate the energetics. The tight-binding basis set is limited to d orbitals which are valid for elements at the end of transition metals series. In our analysis we concentrated on electronic effects at temperature T=0 K, this means that no entropic term will be pr...
متن کاملتحلیل مفهوم گذار از دوره دانشجویی به زندگی کاری: مدل هیبرید
Background & Aim: Transition from studentship to working life is a stressful and challenging event. The concept of transition is important in nursing education, management, and practice issues. However, despite its supreme importance, there are certain ambiguities about the concept of transition in nursing. The aim of this study was to analyze the concept of transition in the context of nursi...
