In this paper we address, both experimentally and theoretically, the very grazing scattering of He atoms off KCl(001) with incidence along $\ensuremath{\langle}100\ensuremath{\rangle}$ channel. Our theoretical model combines a semiquantum description dynamics high-precision interaction potential. By means thorough analysis quantum phase for in-plane rainbow trajectories, are able to connect pre...

We experimentally observe the excitation of dark multipolar spoof localized surface plasmon resonances in a hybrid structure consisting of a corrugated metallic disk coupled with a C-shaped dipole resonator. The uncoupled corrugated metallic disk only supports a dipolar resonance in the transmission spectrum due to perfect symmetry of the structure. However, the dark multipolar spoof localized ...

Strong competition and the high demands of consumergoods companies for just-in-time delivery together with high standards of product and service quality are turning the top end of the corrugated-board box market into a very tough place to be. Customers order a large variety of different boxes, each with its own colour scheme and product specific printing, and expect them to be delivered at very...

This paper will explore the technology behind corrugated model morphing wings and their potential benefits to society. The two major models of corrugated morphing wings will be examined and explained. In order to provide background, the technology and shape behind all morphing wings will also be examined. The applications of these wings will then be explored. Using data from wind tunnel testing...

An experimental study was conducted to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of a bioinspired corrugated airfoil compared with a smooth-surfaced airfoil and a flat plate at the chord Reynolds number of ReC = 58,000–125,000 to explore the potential applications of such bio-inspired corrugated airfoils for micro air vehicle designs. In addition to measuring the aerodynamic lift and drag for...

We present molecular dynamics results for the interaction between two solid elastic walls during pull-off for systems with and without octane (C(8)H(18)) lubricant. We used two types of substrate--flat and corrugated--and varied the lubricant coverage from approximately 1/8 to approximately 4 ML (monolayers) of octane. For the flat substrate without lubricant the maximum adhesion was found to b...

In this paper, a new model for resonance frequency of clamped circular corrugated diaphragm has been presented. First, an analytical analyzes has been carried out to derive mathematic expressions for mechanical sensitivity of diaphragm with residual stress. Next by using Rayleigh's method we present mathematical model to calculate the resonance frequency of corrugated diaphragm and investigate ...

Bragg scattering at one-dimensional corrugated substrates allows to improve the light outcoupling from top-emitting organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The OLEDs rely on a highly efficient phosphorescent pin stack and contain metal electrodes that introduce pronounced microcavity effects. A corrugated photoresist layer underneath the bottom electrode introduces light scattering. Compared to ...

In warehouse storage applications, it is important to classify the burning behavior of commodities and rank them according to material flammability for early fire detection and suppression operations. In this study, the large-scale effects of warehouse fires are decoupled into separate processes of heat and mass transfer. As a first step, two nondimensional parameters are shown to govern the ph...
