Dynamic response of phenolic resin and its carbon-nanotube composites to shock wave loading [PDF]
, 2011 We investigate with nonreactive molecular dynamics simulations the dynamic response of phenolic resin and its carbon-nanotube (CNT) composites to shock wave compression. For phenolic resin, our simulations yield shock states in agreement with experiments

Influence of accelerated ageing on the physico-mechanical properties of alkali-treated industrial hemp fibre reinforced poly(lactic acid) (PLA) composites [PDF]
, 2010 30 wt% aligned untreated long hemp fibre/PLA (AUL) and aligned alkali treated long hemp fibre/PLA (AAL) composites were produced by film stacking and subjected to accelerated ageing. Accelerated ageing was carried out using UV irradiation and water spray

Glass Transition Temperature Depression at the Percolation Threshold in Carbon Nanotube-Epoxy Resin and Polypyrrole-Epoxy Resin Composites [PDF]
, 2005 The glass transition temperatures of conducting composites, obtained by blending carbon nanotubes (CNTs) or polypyrrole (PPy) particles with epoxy resin, were investigated by using both differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamical mechanical ...

Stochastic Recursive Momentum Method for Non-Convex Compositional Optimization [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We propose a novel stochastic optimization algorithm called STOchastic Recursive Momentum for Compositional (STORM-Compositional) optimization that minimizes the composition of expectations of two stochastic functions, the latter being an optimization problem arising in various important machine learning applications.

Compositions, Partitions, and Fibonacci Numbers [PDF]
Fibonacci Quarterly 40 (2011) 348-354, 2013 A bijective proof is given for the following theorem: the number of compositions of n into odd parts equals the number of compositions of n + 1 into parts greater than one. Some commentary about the history of partitions and compositions is provided.
