Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) is a dieless and flexible forming technology that allows performing complex shapes presents high economic payoff for low production series. In this context, research an experimental investigation of Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) sheets deformed by SPIF at room temperature, determining the influence process parameters on material formability. The performed...

We study the effects of cyclic, athermal quasi-static shear on a model glass-forming system in three dimensions. utilize available orthogonal planes, namely $XY, YZ \text{ and } XZ$ to better explore energy landscape. Using measurements stroboscopic $(\gamma = 0)$ energy, we using an direction perturb unidirectional steady-states. find that each sequence protocol leads compaction with universal...

We discuss the phase diagram and properties of global vortices in non-Hermitian parity-time-symmetric relativistic model possessing two interacting scalar complex fields. The contains stable PT-symmetric regions unstable PT-broken regions, which intertwine nontrivially with U(1)-symmetric U(1)-broken phases, thus forming rich patterns space parameters model. notion PT-symmetry breaking is gener...

Sheet metal channels with variable sections or local features have been widely used in automobile and construction industries, novel forming techniques, such as flexible roll process, flexibly reconfigurable Deakin’s facility, chain-die recently developed to manufacture those channels. In this paper, the feasibility of technique is systematically investigated through experiment finite element s...

We explore the phase diagram of Nambu-Jona-Lasinio-type models near the chiral critical point allowing for phases with spatially inhomogeneous chiral condensates. In the chiral limit it turns out that the region in the mean-field phase diagram where those phases are energetically preferred very generically reaches out to the chiral critical point. The preferred inhomogeneous ground state in thi...
