Areas Within Irregular Boundaries01:26

Areas Within Irregular Boundaries

371
Calculating areas within irregular boundaries, such as along rivers or curved roads, is crucial in various fields, including surveying, engineering, and environmental management. Surveyors often begin by creating a traverse, a connected series of straight lines approximating the area's boundary. The coordinates of each traverse point are essential for calculating the enclosed area. The double meridian distance formula is a widely used technique for this purpose. This method utilizes the...

Electrostatic Boundary Conditions

953
Consider an external electric field propagating through a homogeneous medium. When the electric field crosses the surface boundary of the medium, it undergoes a discontinuity. The electric field can be resolved into normal and tangential components. The amount by which the field changes at any boundary is given by the difference between the field components above and below the surface boundary.
The surface integral of an electric field is given by Gauss's law in integral form and is related to...

Magnetostatic Boundary Conditions

1.7K
An electric field suffers a discontinuity at a surface charge. Similarly, a magnetic field is discontinuous at a surface current. The perpendicular component of a magnetic field is continuous across the interface of two magnetic mediums. In contrast, its parallel component, perpendicular to the current, is discontinuous by the amount equal to the product of the vacuum permeability and the surface current. Like the scalar potential in electrostatics, the vector potential is also continuous...

Boundary Layer Characteristics01:18

Boundary Layer Characteristics

600
When a fluid encounters a solid surface, a boundary layer forms due to the interaction between the fluid's motion and the stationary surface. This phenomenon is characterized by a thin region adjacent to the surface where viscous forces dominate, influencing the fluid's velocity profile. The development of the boundary layer begins at the leading edge of the surface and evolves as the fluid moves downstream.As the fluid flows over the surface, friction between the fluid and the wall slows down...

Lumber Defects01:23

Lumber Defects

503
Lumber defects, which can affect both the appearance and structural integrity of wood, include a variety of growth and manufacturing flaws. Growth defects such as knots and knotholes occur where branches were once attached to the tree trunk, with knotholes forming when these knots fall out. Other natural defects include decay and insect damage, which compromise the wood's strength and durability.
Shakes are minor fractures that run along or across the wood's annual rings, while wane is...

  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Surface Science

Background:

  • Large-area graphene synthesis traditionally focuses on increasing grain size.
  • Beyond 1 micrometer grain size, grain boundary characteristics significantly influence electronic properties.

  • Water permeation experiments.

Main Results:

  • A thermodynamic correlation between vapor phase chemistry and carbon potential at grain boundaries and triple junctions was established.
  • Grain boundary formation was controlled, allowing for intentional and reversible defect engineering.
  • Room temperature electronic mobilities in 100 micrometer channels were reversibly tuned from 1000 to 20,000 cm^2 V^-1 s^-1.
  • Water permeation experiments confirmed that property changes were localized to grain boundaries.

Conclusions:

  • Grain boundary engineering is crucial for controlling the electronic properties of large-area graphene, beyond just grain size.
