Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs) are widely used in aerospace, automotive, and other sectors for their high strength-to-weight ratio and adaptability. In order to reach high mechanical performance and quality for CFRP components in which a th...

The increase in the risks of mosquito-transmitted serious diseases or viral infections generates strong motivations to find new and efficient solutions for controlling blood-sucking mosquitoes. There are selective protein toxins such as BTI (Bacillus...

This study examines the residual stress induced by manufacturing and its effect on failure in thermosetting unidirectional composites under quasi-static loading, using Finite Element-based computational models. During the curing process, the composit...

Introducing lignocellulosic fibers as the matrix reinforcement in composites is an opportunity for weight reduction and also for the use of by-products and biomass waste from other systems, such as agriculture and textiles. In the case of nautical ap...

This review examines the integration of advanced ultrasonic techniques and artificial intelligence (AI) for monitoring and analyzing concrete structures, focusing on detecting and classifying internal defects. Concrete structures are subject to damag...

This project intends to develop restorative dental nanomaterial composites that are light-curable and show minimal shrinkage. Such nanocomposites are improved via employing 2,2-bis[4(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloylpropyloxy) phenyl] propane (Bis-GMA) with t...

In the present work, carbonate minerals are added in non-polar and polar polymer matrices to develop halogen-free flame-retardant composites. The examined fillers of calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate delivered improved rheological performance...

Contamination by heavy metals (HMs) such as Pb, Cd, Cr, and Hg poses significant risks to the environment and human health owing to their toxicity and persistence. Geopolymers (GPs) have emerged as promising materials for immobilizing HMs and reducin...

In this work, an effective route for achieving high-performance all-polymer materials through the proper manipulation of the material microstructure and starting from a waste material is proposed. In particular, recycled polyethylene terephthalate (r...

Fiber coatings protect the glass surface of fiber from extrinsic environmental factors. The coating of shape memory alloy over fiber is useful in sensor fabrication where the state of deformation is affected by the phase transformation of the coated...
