Validation of the TruBlue Light Laser for Laryngeal Somatosensory and Perturbation Testing

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study validates a blue light laser method for assessing laryngeal somatosensory function by measuring perceptual thresholds, reflexive responses, discrimination acuity, and vocal perturbations in healthy adults. Results demonstrate that the method provides precise, reliable stimulation and yields quantifiable sensory and acoustic responses ...

Discovering Shared Design Heritage for Semiconductor‐Based Gamma‐Ray Spectrometers: From CdTe to Metal Halide Perovskites

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Decades of CdTe and CdZnTe gamma‐ray spectrometer development define core design principles for room‐temperature semiconductor detectors. This Review highlights how metal halide perovskites rapidly assimilate these principles, particularly through defect and compositional engineering strategies that establish favorable spectroscopic conditions for ...

Performance of Glass Fiber Composites With Plastic‐Waste Pyrolysis Char as Filler

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Valorisation of mixed plastic waste into carbonaceous char via pyrolysis, its integration as a microfiller in epoxy/E‐glass (GFRP) laminates, and characterisation to assess composite performance as a function of filler loading. ABSTRACT Plastic pyrolysis offers circular solutions for mixed plastic waste but leaves a carbonaceous char that is often ...

Experimental and Modeling Investigation of Seawater Hydrolysis Effects on Aramid Fiber Rupture Behavior

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Hydrolytic aging in seawater produces markedly different mechanical responses among commercial Aramid fibers. While some fibers exhibit progressive degradation, others maintain stable or even improved tensile behavior. Experimental yarn‐scale testing combined with mathematical degradation modeling and Arrhenius‐based lifetime prediction provides new ...

High energy ballistic and fracture comparison between multilayered armor systems using non-woven curaua fabric composites and aramid laminates

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2017
For personal protection against high kinetic energy projectiles, multilayered armor systems (MAS) are usually the best option. They combine synergistically the properties of different materials such as ceramics, composites and metals. In the present work,
