Comparing both processes we can derive the following definition: A phase change (PC) is a change in the arrangement of atoms, molecules or particles of a substance of fixed chemical composition that is induced from the outside and will manifest itself by the presence of new properties of matte...
phase changeSublimation, deposition, condensation, evaporation, freezing, and melting represent phase changes of matter. Asystem is a portion of the universe that has been chosen for studying the changes that take place within it in response to varying conditions. A system may be complex, such as...
Evaporation is a type of phase change whereby liquid molecules near the air-liquid interface have sufficient energy to transit from a liquid phase to gas phase. From: Advances in Colloid and Interface Science, 2018 About this pageSet alert ...
If the position y of a point or particle changes according to a simple harmonic law, then it will change in time t according to the product of the amplitude, or maximum displacement, r, of the particle and a sine or cosine function composed of its angular speed, symbolized by the Greek...

A cephalopod’s skin demonstrates unmatched camouflage ability, in which the chromatophore can sense the environment’s light condition and change its appearance with the actions of pigment cells accordingly45. Although intricate in nature, the colour-shifting ability of chromatophores is fundamentally bas...
Soft Materials Continuum Mechanics Introduction The phase-field method (PFM) is an established simulation technique in science and engineering due to its capability to predict free boundary movement numerically in an efficient way. The key is to replace free boundaries between (physically) separable reg...
This is due to the change of operating conditions, such as speed, temperature, and rail configuration, to name a few. LIMs have been used for mass public transportation, 3D printing, material transportation, elevators, aircraft carrier, industrial processes, automation, and home appliances, among ...
Synchronization is one of the most commonly present phenomena in various fields of science [10, 11]. Generally, we understand synchronization as a complete coincidence of the states between oscillating systems due to their interactions. Rosenblum et al. [12] show that the phase difference of two...
Phase Change Material refers to a substance that stores and releases energy in the form of latent heat during phase transitions, such as solid-liquid phase change. It maintains a nearly constant temperature during the phase change process and can be classified into different types based on the ph...
