Stress-induced perturbation of the antiferromagnetic long-range order in epitaxially grown (111) Cr2O3 thin films gives rise to pronounced piezomagnetism and a significant reduction of the antiferromagnetic ordering temperature. The temperature dependence of the piezomagnetic moment measured by superconducting quantum…

We consider the semilinear Duhem model and develop an identification method for rate-independent and rate-dependent hysteresis. For rate-independent hysteresis, we reparameterize the system in terms of the input signal, so that the system has the form of a switching linear time-invariant system with ramp-plus-step for…

Abstract The plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC‐P) and its blend with cellulose (PVC‐P/cell) were prepared by means of extrusion. The samples were then biodegraded in forest soil as well as in soil enriched with cellulolytic microorganisms. Moreover, the samples were vaccinated with chosen species of fungi whose di…

Nanocomposites may realize a similar thermal conductivity reduction and thermoelectric efficiency enhancement observed in superlattices and thus provide a pathway to scale up the benefits of the nanoscale effects to thermoelectric materials in bulk form. If there are two species, nanocomposites can be in the form of n…

Abstract A “Chemical one step method” (COSM) is proposed to prepare electromagnetic functional composite nanofibers of polyaniline (PANI/ γ ‐Fe 2 O 3 ) having a diameter of ≈20 nm. In this approach FeCl 3 is acts as the oxidant either for polymerization of aniline or for preparation of γ ‐Fe 2 O 3 magnets. Besides, it…

It is believed that the dynamics of dislocation processes during the deformation of nanocrystalline materials can only be visualized by computational simulations. Here we demonstrate that observations of dislocation processes during the deformation of nanocrystalline Ni with grain sizes as small as 10 nm can be achiev…

It is important for many industrial processes to design new materials with improved selective permeability properties. Besides diffusion, the molecule's solubility contributes largely to the overall permeation process. This study presents a method to calculate solubility coefficients of gases such as O2, H2O (vapor),…
