TL;DR: In this paper, a parameterization of the Stillinger-Weber potential is presented to describe the interatomic interactions within single-layer MoS2 (SLMoS2) nanoribbons.
Abstract: We present a parameterization of the Stillinger-Weber potential to describe the interatomic interactions within single-layer MoS2 (SLMoS2). The potential parameters are fitted to an experimentally obtained phonon spectrum, and the resulting empirical potential provides a good description for the energy gap and the crossover in the phonon spectrum. Using this potential, we perform classical molecular dynamics simulations to study chirality, size, and strain effects on the Young's modulus and the thermal conductivity of SLMoS2. We demonstrate the importance of the free edges on the mechanical and thermal properties of SLMoS2 nanoribbons. Specifically, while edge effects are found to reduce the Young's modulus of SLMoS2 nanoribbons, the free edges also reduce the thermal stability of SLMoS2 nanoribbons, which may induce melting well below the bulk melt temperature. Finally, uniaxial strain is found to efficiently manipulate the thermal conductivity of infinite, periodic SLMoS2.

TL;DR: A novel approach for isogeometric analysis of thin shells using polynomial splines over hierarchical T-meshes (PHT-splines) that achieves C1 continuity, so the Kirchhoff–Love theory can be used in pristine form.

01 Jul 2018TL;DR: The authors report on a comparative style analysis of hyperpartisan (extremely one-sided) news and fake news, showing that 97% of the 299 fake news articles identified are also hyperpartisan.
Abstract: We report on a comparative style analysis of hyperpartisan (extremely one-sided) news and fake news. A corpus of 1,627 articles from 9 political publishers, three each from the mainstream, the hyperpartisan left, and the hyperpartisan right, have been fact-checked by professional journalists at BuzzFeed: 97% of the 299 fake news articles identified are also hyperpartisan. We show how a style analysis can distinguish hyperpartisan news from the mainstream (F1 = 0.78), and satire from both (F1 = 0.81). But stylometry is no silver bullet as style-based fake news detection does not work (F1 = 0.46). We further reveal that left-wing and right-wing news share significantly more stylistic similarities than either does with the mainstream. This result is robust: it has been confirmed by three different modeling approaches, one of which employs Unmasking in a novel way. Applications of our results include partisanship detection and pre-screening for semi-automatic fake news detection.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a methodology for stochastic modeling of the fracture in polymer/particle nanocomposites, which is based on six uncertain parameters: the volume fraction and the diameter of the nanoparticles, Young's modulus and the maximum allowable principal stress of the epoxy matrix, the interphase zone thickness and its Youngs modulus.
Abstract: The fracture energy is a substantial material property that measures the ability of materials to resist crack growth. The reinforcement of the epoxy polymers by nanosize fillers improves significantly their toughness. The fracture mechanism of the produced polymeric nanocomposites is influenced by different parameters. This paper presents a methodology for stochastic modelling of the fracture in polymer/particle nanocomposites. For this purpose, we generated a 2D finite element model containing an epoxy matrix and rigid nanoparticles surrounded by an interphase zone. The crack propagation was modelled by the phantom node method. The stochastic model is based on six uncertain parameters: the volume fraction and the diameter of the nanoparticles, Young’s modulus and the maximum allowable principal stress of the epoxy matrix, the interphase zone thickness and its Young’s modulus. Considering the uncertainties in input parameters, a polynomial chaos expansion surrogate model is constructed followed by a sensitivity analysis. The variance in the fracture energy was mostly influenced by the maximum allowable principal stress and Young’s modulus of the epoxy matrix.
