Comprehensive knowledge over the shape of nanomaterials is a critical factor in designing devices with desired functions. Due to this reason, systematic efforts have been made to synthesize materials of diverse shape in the nanoscale regime. Anisotropic nanomaterials are a class of materials in which their properties are direction-dependent and more than one structural parameter is needed to de...

Effect of an anisotropic detachment on a heteroepitaxial island shape is studied by means of a kinetic Monte Carlo simulation of a square lattice gas model. Only with molecular deposition followed by surface diffusion, islands grow in a ramified dendritic shape, similar to DLA. Introduction of molecular detachment from edges makes islands compact. To understand an anisotropic island shape obser...

This paper elaborates the cone–hemispherical gypsum particle breakages under normal contact with different shape parameters (contact diameter d, cone angle θ and sphere D) proposes a simple quantitative approach to discriminate breakage modes. The effects of on are investigated through analyzing processes, modes force–displacement curves. Three formed during experiments: peeling, peeling–splitt...

The effects of anisotropic transverse collective flow on the HBT correlation function is studied. There exist three different physics contributions related to flow which affect the correlation function: anisotropic source shape, anisotropic space-momentum correlations in pion emission, and the effects related to the HBT measurement of the size of a moving source in different reference frames. R...

Anisotropic diffusion has widely been applied as a mechanism for intra region smoothing of images. The results of anisotropic diffusion can be used to obtain an enhanced image or as a precursor to higher-level processing such as shape description, edge detection, image segmentation and object identification and tracking, Although attractive in terms of edge localization and the ability to contr...

Given a smooth positive function F∈C∞(Sn) such that the square of its 1-homogeneous extension on Rn+1∖{0} is uniformly convex, Wulff shape WF convex body in Euclidean space Rn+1 with F being support boundary ∂WF. In this paper, we introduce fully nonlinear locally constrained anisotropic curvature flow ∂∂tX=(1−Ek1/kσF)νF,k=2,…,nin space, where Ek denotes normalized kth mean respect to WF, σF an...
