Yield precursor dislocation avalanches in small crystals: the irreversibility transition

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Julia R. Greer | First 5 Authors: Xiaoyue Ni, Haolu Zhang, Danilo B. Liarte, Louis W. McFaul, Karin A. Dahmen | Summary: The transition from elastic to plastic deformation in crystalline metals shares history dependence and scale-invariant avalanche signature with other non-equilibrium systems under external loading: dilute colloidal suspensions, plastically-deformed amorphous solids, granular […]

Compressive Light Field Reconstructions using Deep Learning

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Alyosha Molnar | First 5 Authors: Mayank Gupta, Arjun Jauhari, Kuldeep Kulkarni, Suren Jayasuriya, Alyosha Molnar | Summary: Light field imaging is limited in its computational processing demands of high sampling for both spatial and angular dimensions. Single-shot light field cameras sacrifice spatial resolution to sample angular viewpoints, typically by multiplexing incoming rays […]

Computation of a Theoretical Membrane Phase Diagram, and the Role of Phase in Lipid Raft-Mediated Protein Organization

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Barbara Baird | First 5 Authors: Eshan D. Mitra, Samuel C. Whitehead, David Holowka, Barbara Baird, James P. Sethna | Summary: Lipid phase heterogeneity in the plasma membrane is thought to be crucial for many aspects of cell signaling, but the physical basis of participating membrane domains such as "lipid rafts" remains controversial. […]
