Möbius bands, unstretchable material sheets and developable surfaces
A Möbius band can be formed by bending a sufficiently long rectangular unstretchable material sheet and joining the two short ends after twisting by 180°. This process can be modelled by an isometric mapping from a rectangular region to a developable surface in three-dimensional Euclidean space. Attempts have been made to determine the equilibrium shape of a Möbius band by minimizing the bendin...
متن کاملCurvature Effects on Surface Electron States in Ballistic Nanostructures
The curvature effect on the electronic states of a deformed cylindrical conducting surface of variable diameter is theoretically investigated. The quantum confinement of electrons normal to the curved surface results in an effective potential energy that affects the electronic structures of the system at low energies. This suggests the possibility that ballistic transport of electrons in low-di...
متن کاملCompensation of Gaussian curvature in developable cones is local.
We use the angular deficit scheme [V. Borrelli, F. Cazals, and J.-M. Morvan, Comput. Aided Geom. Des. 20, 319 (2003)] to determine the distribution of Gaussian curvature in developable cones (d-cones) [E. Cerda, S. Chaieb, F. Melo, and L. Mahadevan, Nature (London) 401, 46 (1999)] numerically. These d-cones are formed by pushing a thin elastic sheet into a circular container. Negative Gaussian ...
متن کاملPhotoinduced Electron Dynamics in Nanostructures
We have developed theoretical methods to calculate photoinduced electron dynamics in nanoclusters. Furthermore, a highly efficient computational program of massively parallel calculations for electron dynamics has been developed to investigate optical response of nanostructures of more than ten-nanometers in size. More specifically, we have achieved electron dynamics simulations with the maximu...
