Fracture driven by a Thermal Gradient
Motivated by recent experiments by Yuse and Sano (Nature, 362, 329 (1993)), we propose a discrete model of linear springs for studying fracture in thin and elastically isotropic brittle films. The method enables us to draw a map of the stresses in the material. Cracks generated by the model, imposing a moving thermal gradient in the material, can branch or wiggle depending on the driving parame...
متن کاملCarbon-Nanotube-Based Motor Driven by a Thermal Gradient
We present a model describing the dynamics of a thermally activated nanoelectromechanical device. The nanosystem consisted of two coaxial carbon nanotubes of disparate lengths. The presence of strong thermal inhomogeneities induced motion of the shorter nanotube along the track of the longer nanotube. A model combining the actions of frictional, van der Waals, and thermal forces and the effects...
متن کاملNanoparticle manipulation by thermal gradient
A method was proposed to manipulate nanoparticles through a thermal gradient. The motion of a fullerene molecule enclosed inside a (10, 10) carbon nanotube with a thermal gradient was studied by molecular dynamics simulations. We created a one-dimensional potential valley by imposing a symmetrical thermal gradient inside the nanotube. When the temperature gradient was large enough, the fulleren...
متن کاملThermal Behavior of Externally Driven Spindle: Experimental Study and Modelling
This paper focuses on model development for computer analysis of the thermal behavior of an externally driven spindle. The aim of the developed model is to enable efficient quantitative estimation of the thermal characteristics of the main spindle unit in an early stage of the development process. The presented work includes an experimental validation of the simulation model using a custom-buil...
متن کاملGradient Thermal Analysis by Induced Stimulus
In the field of failure analysis of integrated circuits, diagnosing functional failures is a requirement. Traditional beam-based analysis techniques use a scanning laser or ebeam to induce a parametric shift, which is monitored through changes in current or voltage driven to the device. Deep submicron technologies frustrate these analytical methods due to the nearly immeasurable parametric shif...
