We investigate the stability of elastic interfaces beyond the linear regime by considering penny-shaped crack fronts propagating through toughness heterogeneities. Using fracture mechanics simulations, we drive crack fronts through arrays of obstacles with tunable toughness contrast. At low contrast, the crack front s…

Abstract As open systems, arthropod joints and mechanical articulations face common challenges such as contamination and loss of lubricant. Recent studies suggest that insects manage these objectives of such open joints using a combination of cuticular microstructures and lubricating fluids. Here we provide an insight…

This paper proposes a spectral-Galerkin method for the backward stochastic Allen-Cahn equation (BSACE), whose cubic nonlinearity is not globally Lipschitz. We construct spatially semi-discrete and space-time discrete schemes by combining spectral-Galerkin approximations in space with implicit Euler time stepping. Unde…

The large-scale retirement of LiFePO4 (LFP) batteries is generating increasing amounts of Fe- and P-rich lithium-extraction slag, which is discarded as low-value solid waste. Herein, we report the direct upcycling of spent LFP (S-LFP)-derived slag into a reconstructed Fe-based electrocatalyst for the nitrate reduction…
