The albedo of Arctic sea ice depends greatly on the formation of melt ponds. These ponds form in depressions on the ice as surface snow melts during the summer months, and their location is determined mainly by the initial snow topography. Using a high resolution sea ice model forced with...
Simulation models were developed to explore the reversible nature of gecko dry
adhesion system. The central idea of this model is that even with a small moment imparted on the contact tip, the seta can be easily ad-adhered. It is shown that this contact condition is very sensitive, but can...
The ability to engineer stiffness and strength in any desired direction make composites an ideal material candidate for various applications when compared to their traditional isotropic counterparts. In spite of this, the ability to model the material response in composites has yet to be fully explored. Composite research largely focuses...
