Sound waves and spark oscillations:

Premise: Jazz has a different playlist for different things- and this includes missions, and off time.

Thesis: Jazz's choice of music in each playlist affects his performance in the positive.

Hypothesis: Sound waves actually affect spark oscillations thanks to Brillouin scattering.

Evidence: In electromagnetism, Brillouin scattering (also known as Brillouin light scattering or BLS), named after Léon Brillouin, refers to the interaction of light with the material waves in a medium (e.g. electrostriction and magnetostriction). It is mediated by the refractive index dependence on the material properties of the medium; as described in optics, the index of refraction of a transparent material changes under deformation (compression-distension or shear-skewing).

Broken down: Sound waves interact with light by changing its momentum into preferential directions. This means, for example, the higher the BPM of a particular track, the faster it spins the spark- creating extra energy without the frame having to utilize its own fuel source. It's only by a fraction of a percentage: .25% or so- but enough that Jazz can use it for surprise maneuvers.

Or even that extra burst of speed.

Conversely, a slower BPM or RPM on music can slow down a spark's oscillating spin- making the mechanism sleepier or destressing them to the point their processor can shut down- ESPECIALLY if they have extrasensory equipment like doors, audio horns, or sensor panels.

This is also evidence of why mechanisms like Blaster, Jazz, and Soundwave are so deadly: music can save or end a life.

Atomically engineered interfaces improve electrostriction in an oxide material

An international team of researchers has found a way to improve electrostriction in an oxide material by atomically engineering the interfaces of the layers of which it is made. In their paper published in the journal Nature, the group shows that electrostriction in oxides can be enhanced through the use of artificial interfaces. David Egger with the Technical University of Munich, has published a News & Views piece in the same journal issue outlining the work done by the group on this new effort.

Prior research has shown that applying an electric field to a material can sometimes result in desired modifications to the shape of the material—a phenomenon known as electrostriction. It has been used to great effect in creating motors and actuators. Formally, it is described as the process of generating strain in a material through application of an electric field. Unfortunately, most such applications involve the use of lead, which is toxic, so researchers have been looking for other materials.

One such promising possibility involves the use of tailored oxides, though the tailoring has not yet been worked out. In this new effort, the researchers report a big step toward that goal. They found a material made by layering different oxides in particular ways can improve the degree of electrostriction that results.

Who are the Active Players in Electrostrictive Materials Market ?

Electrostrictive Materials Market 2021

All the dielectric materials are electrostrictive materials, which cause electrostriction when the displacement of ions occurs in the crystal lattice during exposure to an external electric field. Cation moves towards the direction of the electric field, while anion moves away from the electric field. Electrostriction is similar to piezoelectricity; the main difference is that electrostriction is a quadratic effect, while piezoelectricity is a linear effect. Therelaxor ferroelectrics are considered electrostrictive material as they have extraordinarily high electrostrictive constants. The most commonly used electrostrictive include lead magnesium niobate (PMN), lead magnesium niobate lead titanate (PMN-PT), and lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT).

An approach to enhancing relaxors for energy storage devices

Relaxor ferroelectrics are materials with ferroelectric properties and high electrostriction (i.e., the ability to contract or deform in response to electric fields). These materials can be used to create highly efficient energy storage devices, such as capacitors. Capacitors are key electronic components composed of two electrical conductors with a given distance between them. These components can temporarily store electric charge, reducing the noise transmitted by individual integrated circuits (ICs) and thus improving the overall performance of electronics. Researchers at Tsinghua University and other institutes in China recently introduced a new strategy to engineer effective relaxor ferroelectrics for energy storage devices. Their paper, introduced in Nature Energy, suggests using a so-called configurational entropy to evaluate the local inhomogeneity of a relaxor's composition.
