Comparison Study of Vibration Control Effects between Suspended Tuned Mass Damper and Particle Damper by Zheng Lu, Dianchao Wang, Peizhen Li

“…The reason lies in the fact that the particle damper can dissipate input energy by tuning mass, collision, impact, and friction between particles and the container and the momentum exchange effects between the secondary damper mass and the primary structure.…”

Formulation of energy loss due to magnetostriction to design ultraefficient soft magnets by Hiroshi Tsukahara, Haodong Huang, Kiyonori Suzuki, Kanta Ono

“…The viscosity of magnetic materials causes the resistive force acting on magnetic domain walls through strain due to magnetostriction, and magnetic energy is eventually dissipated by friction even without eddy currents. This energy loss mechanism explains the frequency dependence of the excess loss observed in the experiments, and the excess loss is dominated by the contribution of magnetostriction when the magnetostriction constant exceeds approximately 20 ppm. …”

Far from equilibrium field theory for strongly coupled light and matter: Dynamics of frustrated multimode cavity QED by Hossein Hosseinabadi, Darrick E. Chang, Jamir Marino

“…Light-matter interfaces have now entered a new stage marked by the ability to engineer quantum correlated states under driven-dissipative conditions. To propel this new generation of experiments, we are confronted with the need to model nonunitary many-body dynamics in strongly coupled regimes by transcending traditional approaches in quantum optics. …”

Al2O3/Al hybrid nanolaminates with superior toughness, strength and ductility by Paul Baral, Sahar Jaddi, Hui Wang, Andrey Orekhov, Nicolas Gauquelin, Alireza Bagherpour, Frederik Van Loock, Michaël Coulombier, Audrey Favache, Morgan Rusinowicz, Johan Verbeeck, Stéphane Lucas, Jean-Pierre Raskin, Hosni Idrissi, Thomas Pardoen

“…The combination of constrained alumina layers with ductile behavior, strong “accommodating” interfaces, giant shear deformability of Al layers, and plasticity-controlled crack shielding cooperate to stabilize deformation, dissipate energy and arrest cracks. These performances unlock several options of applications of Al2O3 in which brittleness under contacts prevents benefiting from remarkable functional properties and chemical stability.…”
