Phase-change actuation has been revived for the era of untethered, electrically driven soft robots. Our team at the University of Coimbra have developed a phase transition soft actuator designed to ...

Lattice gas models provide a discrete framework for investigating phase transitions in statistical physics, where particles occupy the nodes of a lattice and interact according to specified rules.

A paper by Kazan Federal University was published in early access in Journal of Molecular Liquids. The work was aimed at the prediction of the vaporization enthalpies of alkylaromatic compounds and ...

In physics, a phase transition is a transformation of a substance from one form to another. They happen everywhere, from beneath the Earth's crust to the cores of distant stars, but the classic ...

A new study describes a new liquid phase in thin films of a glass-forming molecules. These results demonstrate how these glasses and other similar materials can be fabricated to be denser and more ...

The work was aimed at the prediction of the vaporization enthalpies of alkylaromatic compounds and their derivatives. This is a development of the recently proposed system of methods for evaluation of ...
