Eco-Friendly Electricity Generator Using Scintillating Piezo
The concept is to capture the normally lost energy surrounding a system and converting it into electrical energy that can be used to extend the lifetime of that system’s power supply or possibly provide an endless supply of energy to an electronic device which has led to power harvesting. One of the most interesting methods of obtaining the energy surrounding a system is to use piezoelectric ma...
متن کاملCharacterizing the Nature of the Smectic A–Smectic C and Smectic A–Smectic C* Transitions
We provide a theoretical explanation of the critical ii. e. non-mean-field) behavior of specific heat at the SmA-SmC transition, as it has recently been observed on certain compounds. This explanation rests on the Andereck and Swift free energy introducing terms which couple the order-parameter with both layer-compression and density. We show that the behavior of specific-heat depends on the in...
متن کاملSmectic A to smectic A phase transition
2014 We investigate properties of the Meyer-Lubensky free energy introduced in the description of the nematic to smectic A phase transition, and show that a new transition from a smectic A to another smectic A is possible for some values of the parameters used in the theory. The recent observations by G. Sigaud et al. may be interpreted within this context. LE JOURNAL DE PHYSIQUE TOME 40, JUIN ...

متن کاملSmectic-C tilt under shear in smectic-A elastomers.
Stenull and Lubensky [Phys. Rev. E 76, 011706 (2007)] have argued that shear strain and tilt of the director relative to the layer normal are coupled in smectic elastomers and that the imposition of one necessarily leads to the development of the other. This means, in particular, that a smectic-A elastomer subjected to a simple shear will develop smectic-C-like tilt of the director. Recently, K...
