Curvature-Controlled Defect Localization in Elastic Surface Crystals.
We investigate the influence of curvature and topology on crystalline dimpled patterns on the surface of generic elastic bilayers. Our numerical analysis predicts that the total number of defects created by adiabatic compression exhibits universal quadratic scaling for spherical, ellipsoidal, and toroidal surfaces over a wide range of system sizes. However, both the localization of individual d...
متن کاملRelaxed Elastic Line on a Curved Surface
In an effort to begin to understand the mechanics of various forms of biologically packaged DNA, we develop the Euler-Lagrange equations for the equilibrium path of an elastic line constrained to a surface but otherwise relaxed. We find, in contrast to a statement by Hilbert and Cohn-Vossen [1], that whether or not the solutions are geodesic curves of the surface depends on the boundary conditi...
متن کاملCOMPUTATIONAL ENUMERATION OF POINT DEFECT CLUSTERS IN DOUBLE- LATTICE CRYSTALS
The cluster representation matrices have already been successfully used to enumerate close-packed vacancy clusters in all single-lattice crystals [I, 2]. Point defect clusters in double-lattice crystals may have identical geometry but are distinct due to unique atomic postions enclosing them. The method of representation matrices is extended to make it applicable to represent and enumerate ...
متن کاملthe study of bright and surface discrete cavity solitons dynamics in saturable nonlinear media
امروزه سالیتون ها بعنوان امواج جایگزیده ای که تحت شرایط خاص بدون تغییر شکل در محیط منتشر می-شوند، زمینه مطالعات گسترده ای در حوزه اپتیک غیرخطی هستند. در این راستا توجه به پدیده پراش گسسته، که بعنوان عامل پهن شدگی باریکه نوری در آرایه ای از موجبرهای جفت شده، ظاهر می گردد، ضروری است، زیرا سالیتون های گسسته از خنثی شدن پراش گسسته در این سیستم ها بوسیله عوامل غیرخطی بوجود می آیند. گسستگی سیستم عامل...
Elastic instability of a crystal growing on a curved surface.
Although the effects of kinetics on crystal growth are well understood, the role of substrate curvature is not yet established. We studied rigid, two-dimensional colloidal crystals growing on spherical droplets to understand how the elastic stress induced by Gaussian curvature affects the growth pathway. In contrast to crystals grown on flat surfaces or compliant crystals on droplets, these cry...
