Metallic thin-walled round tubes are widely used as energy absorption elements. However, lateral splash of the round tubes under impact loadings reduces the energy absorption efficiency and may cause secondary damages. Therefore, it is necessary to assemble and fasten round tubes together by boundary constraints and/or fasteners between tubes, which increases the time and labor cost and affects the mechanical performance of round tubes. In an effort to break through this limitation, a novel self-locked energy-absorbing system has been proposed in this paper. The proposed system is made up of thin-walled tubes with dumbbell-shaped cross section, which are specially designed to interlock with each other and thus provide lateral constraint under impact loadings. Both finite element simulations and impact experiment demonstrated that without boundary constraints or fasteners between tubes, the proposed self-locked energy-absorbing system can still effectively attenuate impact loads while the round tube systems fail to carry load due to the lateral splashing of tubes. Furthermore, the optimal geometric design for a single dumbbell-shaped tube and the optimal stacking arrangement for the system are discussed, and a general guideline on the structural design of the proposed self-locked energy absorbing system is provided.

A molecular dynamics simulation is performed to investigate spatial scale of low energy excitation (LEE) in a single linear chain of united atoms. The self part of the dynamic structure function, $S_mathrm{S}(q,omega)$, is obtained in a wide range in
frequency space ($omega$) and reciprocal space ($q$). A broad peak corresponding to the LEE is detected at $omega/2pi=2.5 times 10^{11} mathrm{s^{-1}}$ ($equiv omega_{mathrm{LEE}}/2pi$) on the contour maps of $S_mathrm{S}(q,omega)$, near and below the glass transition temperature ($T_{mathrm{g}}$=230 K). The $S_mathrm{S}(q,omega_{mathrm{LEE}})$ is symmetric around a maximum along the logarithm of $q$. The inverse of $q_{mathrm{max}}$, giving the maximum position of $S_mathrm{S}(q,omega_{mathrm{LEE}})$, depends on temperature as $2pi/q_{mathrm{max}}sim T^{0.52}$ for $60 mathrm{K}<T<T_{mathrm{g}}$ and $2pi/q_{mathrm{max}}sim T^{0.97}$ for $T_{mathrm{g}}<T<600 mathrm{K}$, which is the spatial scale of the motion corresponding to the LEE at low temperatures. Based on a Gaussian approximation for the displacements of monomer groups which give rise to the motion relevant to the LEE, it is found that the number of monomers contained in a group is about 6.
The electronic conductance of a molecule making contact to electrodes is determined by the coupling of discrete molecular states to the continuum electrode density of states. Interactions between bound states and continua can be modeled exactly by us
ing the (energy-dependent) self-energy, or approximately by using a complex potential. We discuss the relation between the two approaches and give a prescription for using the self-energy to construct an energy-independent, non-local, complex potential. We apply our scheme to studying single-electron transmission in an atomic chain, obtaining excellent agreement with the exact result. Our approach allows us to treat electron-reservoir couplings independent of single electron energies, allowing for the definition of a one-body operator suitable for inclusion into correlated electron transport calculations.
Management of discarded tires is a compelling environmental issue worldwide. Although several approaches have been developed to recycle waste tire rubbers, their application in solid-state cooling is still unexplored. Considering the high barocaloric
potential verified for elastomers, the use of waste tire rubber (WTR) as refrigerant in solid-state cooling devices is very promising. Here, we investigated the barocaloric effects in WTR and polymer blends made of vulcanized natural rubber (VNR) and WTR, in order to evaluate its feasibility for solid-state cooling technologies. The adiabatic temperature change and the isothermal entropy change reach giant values, as well as the performance parameters, being comparable or even better than most barocaloric materials in literature. Moreover, pure WTR and WTR-based samples also present a faster thermal exchange than VNR, consisting in an additional advantage of using these discarded materials. Thus, the present findings evidence the encouraging perspectives of employing waste rubbers in solid-state cooling based on barocaloric effect, contributing in both the recycling of polymers and the sustainable energy technology field.
Graphene is at the center of a significant research effort. Near-ballistic transport at room temperature and high mobility make it a potential material for nanoelectronics. Its electronic and mechanical properties are also ideal for micro and nanomec
hanical systems, thin-film transistors and transparent and conductive composites and electrodes. Here we exploit the optoelectronic properties of graphene to realize an ultrafast laser. A graphene-polymer composite is fabricated using wet-chemistry techniques. Pauli blocking following intense illumination results in saturable absorption, independent of wavelength. This is used to passively mode-lock an Erbium-doped fibre laser working at 1559nm, with a 5.24nm spectral bandwidth and ~460fs pulse duration, paving the way to graphene-based photonics.
The action functional for a linear elastic medium with dislocations is given. The equations of motion following from this action reproduce the Peach-K{o}hler and Lorentzian forces experienced by dislocations. The explicit expressions for singular and
finite parts of the self-force acting on a curved dislocation are derived in the framework of linear theory of elasticity of an isotropic medium. The velocity of dislocation is assumed to be arbitrary but less than the shear wave velocity. The nonrelativistic and ultrarelativistic limits are investigated. In the ultrarelativistic limit, the explicit expression for the leading contribution to the self-force is obtained. In the case of slowly moving dislocations, the effective equations of motion derived in the present paper reproduce the known results.
