Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...

In Situ Curing‐Enabled 3D Printing of Continuous Fiber‐Reinforced Thermosetting Composites

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
In situ curing‐enabled the 3D printing of continuous fiber/thermoset composites, which were reviewed. Particularly, four types of in situ curing, were discussed, including Radiation‐induced curing, photothermal curing, electrothermal curing, and frontal polymerization. AI‐integrated printing was also analyzed.

Repeated Pleistocene Permafrost Episodes in the Western Pannonian Basin

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Concerning the study of past periglacial processes, the Pannonian Basin is a key area as it contains the southernmost frost polygons found in Central Europe. The presence or absence of permafrost is still, however, a matter of debate, and data on the timing of frost action are also scarce.

Experimental Study on Fine Sediment Infiltration (FSI) Processes in Different Gravel Mixtures

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fine sediment infiltration (FSI) can lead to riverbed clogging, thereby degrading important habitats for aquatic biota in the hyporheic interstitial zone of gravel‐bed rivers (e.g., by reducing oxygen availability). This stress on rivers may increase from anthropogenic influences and can be counteracted by artificial gravel augmentation to ...

Effects of Engineered Dam Releases on Benthic Assemblages During Drought and Comparison With Unregulated Reaches

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT River regulation following damming is often associated with deleterious downstream effects, in large part due to reduced total discharge and disruption of seasonal flooding. These effects would be expected to be exacerbated by drought, particularly extended drought.

Fundamental Hydraulic Geometry Relations as an Accessible Tool for Identifying Channel Instability Over National Scales

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The geometry of alluvial river channels can give insight into their stability, which can inform predictions of morphological change, flood risk and ecological degradation. Fundamental hydraulic geometry relations can be used to estimate the equilibrium dimensions of stable river channels by evaluating the balance between the erodibility of bed

Bed shear stress evaluation in combined sewers

Urban Water Journal, 2008
Experiments have been undertaken on two sewer trunk lines in order to identify an accurate and practical technique for estimating bed shear stresses in combined sewers. Various methods were tested to determine both local bed shear stress values (one based on the logarithmic velocity profile and the other on the Reynolds shear stress distribution) and ...

Bed Shear Stress and Scour over Bed‐Type River Intake

Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 1991
Laboratory experiments are carried out to determine the increase in bed shear stress and local scour over the zone of suction associated with a bed-type river intake in a channel with a mobile bed. Bed shear stress is estimated first by observing the movement of indicator grains whose threshold shear stress in uniform flow was already known, and second

Direct Bed Shear Stress Measurements in Laboratory Swash

Journal of Coastal Research, 2007
Knowledge of the boundary shear stress in the swash zone is essential for the accurate prediction of sediment transport rates and beach morphology. The variation of bed shear stress over the swash cycle has been investigated directly using a novel shear plate instrument.
