Abstract:
This paper introduces a novel contact-aided compliant mechanism that uses intermittent contacts to convert a single translatory reciprocating input into two output curves, which intersect to enclose a two dimensional region. Contact interactions endow contact-aided compliant mechanisms with enhanced kinematic and kinetostatic capabilities. The mechanism described in this paper is designed to undergo large deformations repeatedly, without yielding by avoiding flexural joints and by using contacts to obtain the desired deformation. A single-material, joint-free and planar design makes the mechanism easy and economical to fabricate at the macro or micro scales. The design is validated experimentally by manufacturing and testing macro scale prototypes. Two potential applications that motivated this mechanism are also noted.

Abstract:
Contact electrification has been a well-known phenomenon since B.C. 300. However, the origin of triboelectric charge and the charge transfer mechanism are not well understood. To date, the thermionic emission model, Schottky model, flexoelectric model, and intermolecular force model have been proposed for the contact electrification in conductors, semiconductors, and insulators. This article briefly introduces several important research results on the simple-seeming, but baffling, topic of contact electrification.

Abstract:
In this paper, the influence of the microstructure of a metal on the breakdown mechanism of diodes with a Schottky barrier is studied. It is shown that in electronic processes occurring in the contact between a metal and a semi-conductor, the metal plays a very active role and is a more important contact partner than a semiconductor. Unlike the known mechanisms of breakdown of diodes (avalanche, tunnel and thermal), another mechanism is proposed in this paper - the geometric mechanism of the reverse current flow of Schottky diodes made using a metal with a poly-crystalline structure. The polycrystallinity of a metal transforms a homogeneous contact into a complex system, which consists of parallel-connected multiple elementary contacts having different properties and parameters.

Abstract:
In this paper, studies on “quasi-static” region of ohmic-contact behavior for MEMS switches under low contact force and low current conditions were carried out. Random telegraph signals (RTS) observed during the transition period were carefully investigated. It is found that RTS in transition region could be consistently identified by multiple characteristic time constants. The RTS behavior with multiple time constants suggests that different contact mechanisms could involve during “quasi-static” contact region. A dominant mechanism with time constant of ~1 ms was observed for the Au-to-Au contacts used in this study.

Abstract:
An analytical dependence was obtained that describes the patterns of friction stress distribution in the contact zone of roller mechanisms. The patterns of distribution of friction stresses from external forces acting on the roll supports, geometric and kinematic parameters of the roller mechanism, and strain properties of the processed material and elastic coatings of the rollers were determined. Mathematical models of friction stress of roller mechanisms were developed, considering the kinematics of the contact zone, the kinematic connection between the working rolls, and the compliance of the material being processed. It was established that the ratio of friction stress to normal stress at the points of the contact zone of the roller mechanism is not constant, but changes at each point of the contact zone.

Abstract:
Ultrasonic-assisted grinding processing can effectively reduce the surface roughness and enhance the processing efficiency in the processing of hard and brittle materials. However, the most common ultrasonic assisted grinding is a type of contact ultrasonic grinding where the grinding tool directly contacts the workpiece, which means that it is necessary to accurately control the pre-pressure of the grinding tool on the workpiece. The control of pre-pressure will inevitably increase the complexity of the grinding device, and it is easy to wear the workpiece because of improper pre-pressure control. In this paper, a non-contact ultrasonic grinding method is proposed and the machining mechanism of non-contact ultrasonic grinding is revealed. The resonant frequency of the ultrasonic vibration system and vibration amplitude of the grinding tool working face were simulated and experimentally tested, respectively. Then, the experiment of non-contact ultrasonic grinding of a sapphire wafer was carried out. The result showed that non-contact ultrasonic grinding of the sapphire wafer could reduce the surface roughness by 48.6%. Compared with traditional contact grinding of sapphire wafer under certain pre-pressure conditions, the experimental results show that non-contact ultrasonic grinding has better effects in reducing surface roughness, improving processing efficiency, and improving the quality uniformity of the workpiece machining surface.

In this work the electrical properties of Ni and Ni2Si contacts on n-type 4H-SiC were correlated to the strong structural changes at the contact/SiC interface upon annealing. We can conclude that only δ-Ni2Si grains play a main role in determining electrical transport properties of the Ni-based ohmic contacts to n-SiC. It is presumed that a recrystallization and texturization of δ-Ni2Si phase on (0001)SiC-surface during high temperature annealing (> 900°C) contributes to the change of barrier heights, as well as specific contact resistance of contacts.

Abstract:
Ohmic contacts on p-doped 4H-SiC are essential for the fabrication of a wide range of power electron devices. Despite the fact that Ti/Al based ohmic contacts are routinely used for ohmic contacts on p-doped 4H-SiC, the underlying contact formation mechanisms are still not fully understood. TLM structures were fabricated, measured and analyzed to get a better understanding of the formation mechanism. SIMS analyses at the Ti3SiC2-SiC interface have shown a significant increase of the surface near Al concentration. By using numerical simulation it is shown that this additional surface near Al concentration is essential for the ohmic contact formation.

Full text
Abstract:
Particle breakage has a great influence on the mechanical properties of coarse-grained soil materials. In the structure, a particle usually contacts with several surrounding particles when breakage occurs. The crushing mechanism of spherical particles under three-point contact conditions was investigated theoretically and experimentally. In the theoretical analysis, the contact force required for particle breakage is solved by using a stress superposition method based on the ball–ball contact model. To verify the theory, particle contact tests of gypsum spheres under three-point contact conditions were carried out. The experimental results are consistent with the theoretical prediction. Different from the ball–ball contact test, the rupture surface after breakage is a fixed plane passing through all three contact points under three-point contact conditions. Under multi-point contact conditions, the size of the conical core depends on the normal force on the contact point at the moment of particle breakage. Multi-point contact makes particle breakage more difficult, and the stronger the constraint of surrounding spheres, the more difficult it is for the particle to break. Both the theory and the experiment provide evidence that the arrangement of particles affects the overall strength of the coarse-grained soil structure.

Abstract:
Research was conducted to determine the effect of lubricants on stress and strain in the contact of metal surfaces. Experiments were carried out on the introduction of a fixed and moving indenter in contact with a dry and lubricated surface.The steel spherical specimen was pressed into a lubricated and dry metal surface. The microstructures of the structure of the surface layer are studied under various conditions of deformation. The diagrams of the relative deformation of the surface layers are constructed. The mechanism of the formation and distribution of internal stresses for dry and greased contact is described. Experimental studies of the introduction of a moving steel indenter into a lubricated surface have been carried out. The relationship of the deformation mechanisms of lubricated surfaces with their wear resistance is determined. The results obtained are recommended for predicting the durability of lubricated friction units according to the criterion of contact strength.

Full text
Abstract:
The presence of a complicated, variable-depth oil–water contact (OWC) in the Early Miocene L-III carbonate reservoir of the Mumbai High Oilfield has been well established. The OWC dips towards the SW along a curved profile, but the gas–oil contact (GOC) is flat. Very little is known about the possible mechanisms that could have produced this complex fluid contact. In the absence of a horizontal pressure gradient, gravity should produce a flat OWC. In many fields around the world, where non-flat fluid contacts are observed, the contacts could be described as segmented, tilted or curved OWCs. Commonly believed mechanisms which produce such types of contacts are: fault compartmentalization, hydrodynamic flow, ongoing charge; and reservoir property variation. All these mechanisms fail to explain the tilted OWC of the Mumbai High. This paper proposes that another mechanism – structural adjustments after the migration of hydrocarbons into the palaeotrap – might have resulted in tilting or curving of the originally flat OWC of the Mumbai High. Such a phenomenon is likely to be observed in oil-wet low-permeability carbonate reservoirs. Imbibition-related hysteresis combined with diagenesis-induced property degradation in the water leg are the possible mechanisms that can prevent the OWC from equilibrating even after cessation of structural evolution.

Abstract:
A preemptive multi-hop contact tracing scheme that tracks not only the direct contacts of those who tested positive for COVID-19, but also secondary or tertiary contacts has been proposed and deployed in practice with some success. We propose a mathematical methodology for evaluating this preemptive contact tracing strategy that combines the contact tracing dynamics and the virus transmission mechanism in a single framework using microscopic Markov Chain approach (MMCA). We perform Monte Carlo (MC) simulations to validate our model and show that the output of our model provides a reasonable match with the result of MC simulations. Utilizing the formulation under a human contact network generated from real-world data, we show that the cost-benefit tradeoff can be significantly enhanced through an implementation of the multi-hop contact tracing as compared to traditional contact tracing. We further shed light on the mechanisms behind the effectiveness of the multi-hop testing strategy using the framework. We show that our mathematical framework allows significantly faster computation of key attributes for multi-hop contact tracing as compared to MC simulations. This in turn enables the investigation of these attributes for large contact networks, and constitutes a significant strength of our approach as the contact networks that arise in practice are typically large.

Abstract:
While nickel ohmic contacts to n-type silicon carbide have good electrical properties, the physical contact, and therefore the reliability, can be poor. An approach is described for using the good electrical properties of Ni ohmic contacts while using another metal for its desired mechanical, thermal and/or chemical properties. In the present work, once the Ni contacts have been annealed forming nickel silicides and achieving low contact resistance, they are etched off. Removing the primary Ni contacts also eliminates the poor morphology, voids, and at least some of the excess carbon produced by the Ni/SiC reaction. The Ni contacts are then replaced by a second contact metal. This second metal displays low contact resistance as-deposited, indicating that the critical feature responsible for the ohmic contact has not been removed by the primary contact etch. Not only does this approach provide more flexibility for optimizing the contact for a given application, it also provides some insight into the ohmic contact formation mechanism.

Identifying mechanisms of pathogen transmission is critical to controlling disease. Social organization should influence contacts among individuals and thus the distribution and spread of disease within a population. Molecular genetic markers can be used to elucidate mechanisms of disease transmission in wildlife populations without undertaking detailed observational studies to determine probable contact rates. Estimates of genealogical relationships within a bovine tuberculosis-infected white-tailed deer ( Odocoileus virginianus ) population indicated that infected deer were significantly more closely related than non-infected deer suggesting that contact within family groups was a significant mechanism of disease transmission. Results demonstrate that epidemiological models should incorporate aspects of host ecology likely to affect the probability of disease transmission.

Abstract:
Introduction. The goal of this study is to analyze the mechanisms of injury of patients diagnosed with anterior cruciate ligament injury and their correlation with risk factors in our clinical material. Material and Methods. The study included 1,471 patients, 1192 male and 279 female, with a diagnosed anterior cruciate ligament injury, that were surgically treated in the period between the end of January 2012 and the middle of June 2018. Results. Of the total number of women, around 51% sustained the injury when changing direction, 35% during landing, and 12% during a collision. Among men, 46% sustained injuries during a change of direction, 30% during landing, while the percentage of injuries sustained during a collision was higher than among women, amounting to 23%. The impact of gender on the type of injury mechanism and on the injury mechanism is statistically significant. The incidence of left knee injuries is higher in non-contact injuries, while right knee injuries are more common in contact injuries. The level of sports activity showed no statistically significant impact on the type of the mechanism of injury, but its impact on the category of mechanism of injury proved to be statistically significant. The impact of sport on the type of the mechanism of injury, as well as on the mechanism of injury categories was statistically significant. Non-contact injuries commonly occurred during the warm-up, beginning and end of a training session, while collisions mostly occurred halfway through the activity. Contact injuries were most often sustained on grass and training mats, while non-contact injuries occurred more often on other surfaces. Conclusion. Most participants sustained injury through non-contact mechanisms and the most frequent noncontact mechanism is change of direction.

Abstract:
We report about a study of the formation and current transport mechanism of ohmic contacts to n+-InN with electron concentrations of 2×1018, 8×1018, and 4×1019 cm−3. Pd/Ti/Au ohmic contacts are formed by the proposed approach of simultaneous magnetron metal deposition and in-situ temperature annealing, which allows obtaining a low contact resistivity (4.20±2.67)×10−6 Ohm· cm2. The additional rapid thermal annealing in the temperature interval 350–400 ∘C is used to improve further contact characteristics. Optimal parameters of the temperature treatment are determined by statistic methods. As for the current transport mechanism, the unusual growing temperature behavior of contact resistivity is observed in the wide temperature range 4.2–380K for each doping level of InN films. The mechanism of thermionic current flow explains the current transport through metal shunts, which is associated with the conducting dislocations. The extracted density of conducting metal shunts has a good agreement with experimental values of the screw and edge dislocation densities experimentally obtained by high-resolution X-ray diffraction. Additionally, from the obtained contact resistivity temperature dependences, we can argue about the metal, which penetrates dislocations and forms shunts.

Abstract:
Robertsonian translocations are common chromosomal alterations. Chromosome variability affects human health and natural evolution. Despite the significance of such mutations, no mechanisms explaining the emergence of such translocations have yet been demonstrated. Several models have explored possible changes in interphase nuclei. Evidence for non-homologous chromosomes end joining in meiosis is scarce, and is often limited to uncovering mechanisms in damaged cells only. This study presents a primarily qualitative analysis of contacts of non-homologous chromosomes by short arms, during meiotic prophase I in the mole vole, Ellobius alaicus, a species with a variable karyotype, due to Robertsonian translocations. Immunocytochemical staining of spermatocytes demonstrated the presence of four contact types for non-homologous chromosomes in meiotic prophase I: (1) proximity, (2) touching, (3) anchoring/tethering, and (4) fusion. Our results suggest distinct mechanisms for chromosomal interactions in meiosis. Thus, we propose to change the translocation mechanism model from ‘contact first’ to ‘contact first in meiosis’.

Abstract:
Human contact networks constitute a multitude of individuals and pairwise contacts among them. However, the dynamic nature, which generates the evolution of human contact networks, of contact patterns is unknown yet. Here, we analyse three empirical datasets and identify two crucial mechanisms of the evolution of temporal human contact networks, i.e., the activity state transition laws for an individual to be socially active and the contact establishment mechanism that active individuals adopt. We consider both of the two mechanisms to propose a temporal network model, the so-called memory-driven (MD) model, of human contact networks. Then, we study the susceptible-infected (SI) spreading processes on empirical human contact networks as well as four corresponding temporal network models and compare the full prevalence time of SI processes with various infection rates on the networks. The full prevalence time of SI processes in the MD model is the same as that in real-world human contact networks. Moreover, we find that the individual activity state transition promotes the spreading process, while the contact establishment of active individuals suppresses the prevalence. Besides, we observe that individuals who establish social ties with a small exploring rate are still able to induce an endemic which prevails in the networks. The study offers new insights to predict and control the diffusion processes on networks.

Abstract:
The most promising mechanism for the formation of contact binaries involves the orbital angular momentum loss (AML) and the resulting orbital decay of detached but close synchronized binaries. The efficiency of magnetic wind braking should abruptly decrease upon formation of a contact binary because of the transformation into a system of earlier spectral type and (possibly) of longer orbital period. The new primary of the contact system should have convective zone thinner than indicated by the surface temperature of the common envelope. The decrease in the coronal (X-rays and radio) activity of contact binaries, which is indeed observed, is used as an agrument that the AML efficiency in contact is relatively low and that the contact stage is considerably prolonged relative to adjacent stages. This small modification to the AML models is capable of explaining why many different contact binaries are observed in old systems like NGC188. The AML evolution is not the only mechanism leading to formation of contact binaries; some of them may have originated via Algol-like evolution. Thus, the observed contact binaries are probably a mixture of systems formed in different ways.

Abstract:
In this paper, an excellent Ohmic contact to p-GaN with a low specific contact resistance (ρc) of 2.0 × 10−5 Ω·cm2 is demonstrated using a patterned sapphire substrate (PSS) and oxidized Ni/Au contacts. GaN epitaxy with high crystal quality on the PSS, confirmed by high-resolution x-ray diffraction, played a key role in the improved Ohmic contact to p-GaN. The edge dislocations were annihilated during the epitaxial process on the PSS to afford a low surface dislocation density, which was in accordance with the results of transmission electron microscopy and cathodoluminescence spectroscopy. Furthermore, a reduced Fermi level and enhanced activation efficiency of Mg with suppressed segregation around the dislocations were demonstrated by Kelvin probe force microscopy and contact Hall measurements, respectively. A GaN p-channel metal oxide semiconductor device fabricated on the PSS displayed a twofold higher forward current density and superior gate controllability compared with that fabricated on a conventional sapphire substrate.
