We propose a method to induce curvature in graphene nanoribbons in a controlled manner using an ultrathin thermoset polymer in a bimaterial strip setup and test it via molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Continuum mechanics shows that curvature develops to release the residual stress caused by the chemical and therma…

In simulations of Couette shear flow by dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) method, applying traditional Lees–Edwards boundary condition (LEC) in conjunction with velocity-dependent thermostats may result in artefacts in the form of velocity jumps. This artefact was observed at extreme dissipation rates (), and a modi…

Nacreous layers of pearl oyster are one of the major functional biominerals. By participating in organic compound-crystal interactions, they assemble into consecutive mineral lamellae-like photonic crystals. Their biomineralization mechanisms are controlled by macromolecules; however, they are largely unknown. Here, w…
