Beyond Global Mechanical Properties: Bioinspired Triply‐Periodic Minimal Surface Cellular Solids for Efficient Mechanical Design and Optimization

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Using novel probe‐based metrics, this study evaluates lattice structures on criteria critical to cellular solid optimization. Triply‐periodic minimal surface (TPMS) lattices outperform other lattices, offering more predictable mechanical behavior in complex design spaces and, as a result, higher performance in optimized models.

Advances in Hybrid Icing and Frosting Protection Strategies for Optics, Lens, and Photonics in Cold Environments Using Thin‐Film Acoustic Waves

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article provides a comprehensive overview of fundamentals and recent advances of transparent thin‐film surface acoustic wave technologies on glass substrates for monitoring and prevention/elimination of fog, ice, and frost. Fogging, icing, or frosting on optical lenses, optics/photonics, windshields, vehicle/airplane windows, and solar panel ...

Elastic‐Wave Propagation in Chiral Metamaterials: A Couple‐Stress Theory Perspective

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The intrinsic chirality of chiral metamaterials renders an effective medium based on the classical continuum theory ineffective for predicting their acoustic activity. This limitation is addressed in the present study by employing augmented asymptotic homogenization to derive a couple‐stress‐based effective medium, enabling accurate predictions in the ...

Edge-intersection graphs of grid paths: the bend-number [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
We investigate edge-intersection graphs of paths in the plane grid, regarding a parameter called the bend-number. I.e., every vertex is represented by a grid path and two vertices are adjacent if and only if the two grid paths share at least one grid-edge.

Improved Mechanical Performance of Epoxy Systems with Low Loadings of Milled Carbon Fiber via Chemical Surface Modification

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The authors explore thermally initiated diazonium chemical surface modification as a means of improving the mechanical performance of milled carbon fibers in epoxy matrix systems at varying loadings by weight. They report significant improvements at <1% w/w loading through examination of flexural and tensile strength and modulus.
