Lead-free piezoelectric materials are essential for our healthy future but offer lower performance than lead-based materials. Different material combinations are explored to improve the performance of lead-free materials. By filling the UV light cura...
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be directly grafted onto the surface of carbon fibers using the chemical vapor deposition method, in which nanometer-order nickel (Ni) particles, serving as catalysts, are plated onto the surface of carbon fibers via elect...
This paper explores the effects of shear deformation on piezoelectric materials and structures that often serve as substrate layers of multilayer composite sensors and actuators. Based on higher-order shear elastic deformation and electric potential...
Human tissues and disease models require well-defined biomimetic microenvironments. During the past decade, innovative developments in materials science, microfabrication, and polymer science have provided us with the ability to manipulate cellular m...
Using 10-(2,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-10-hydrogen-9-oxo-10-phosphine-10-oxide (DOPO-H Q), N,N-diethyl-bis(hydroxyethyl) aminomethylene phosphate diethyl (FRC-6), and (6-oxo- 6H-dibenzo[c,e][1,2]oxphosphine-6-yl) hydroxylmethyl-thiophene (DOPO-SF) as reactiv...
Due to its low cost, over the past decades, biosorption technology has been extensively carried out to treat heavy metal-laden wastewater using biosorbents. Recent studies on heavy metal biosorption mechanisms and the simulation of mathematical model...
The present investigation was conducted on the low-speed impact response of quasi-isotropic [±45/0/90°]xs hybrid composite through laboratory level experimental tests. The purpose was to understand the behaviour that the different stacking...
Out-of-autoclave (OOA) manufacturing techniques for composites result in lower fibre volume fractions than for fully compressed laminates. The lower fibre volume fraction produces a higher resin volume fraction, which becomes resin-rich volumes (RRV)...
Development of the organomorphic ceramic-matrix composites (CMCs), where the reinforcing preform is built using polymer fibers subject essentially to hot pressing, was motivated by a desire to obtain much higher structural uniformity as well as to re...
Revolutionary fabrication technologies such as three-dimensional (3D) printing to develop dental structures are expected to replace traditional methods due to their ability to establish constructs with the required mechanical properties and detailed...
