It is known that the Allen-Chan equations satisfy the maximum principle. Is this true for numerical schemes? To the best of our knowledge, the state-of-art stability framework is the nonlinear energy stability which has been studied extensively for the phase field type equations. In this work, we will show that a stro…

The experimental evidence for the Hall–Petch dependence of strength on the inverse square-root of grain size is reviewed critically. Both the classic data and more recent results are considered. While the data are traditionally fitted to the inverse square-root dependence, they also fit well to many other functions, b…

Abstract The martensitic advanced high-strength steels (MS-AHSS) are used to create fuel-efficient, crashworthy cars. Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) is an issue with high-strength steels; thus, the interaction of hydrogen with MS-AHSS needs to be studied. There are only a few published works on the HE of MS-AHSS. The cur…

DNA — the molecule encoding all biological information across all domains of life — is structured in a double helix with dimensions that are consecutive Fibonacci numbers. The helix completes one full turn every 34 Ångströms and is 21 Ångströms wide (34/21 = 1.619048, δ = 0.000626). The major and minor groove widths —…
