Multimaterial Approach to Improve the Mechanical Properties of a Novel Modified Auxetic Reentrant Honeycomb Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A multimaterial approach is introduced to improve upon auxetic structures by combining two different polymers into the same reentrant honeycomb structure via additive manufacturing. The deformation behavior as well as the resulting Poisson's ratio are thereby improved significantly.

Profile and Visual Outcome of Patients having Keratoconus Attending Tertiary Eye Hospital, Nepal

open access: yesJournal of Nobel Medical College
Background: Keratoconus is a bilateral, asymmetric, chronic, progressive ectasia of the cornea in which patients experience distorted vision that is usually treated with rigid contact lenses when spectacles no longer provide adequate vision.

Contact Lens Use Advice–Risks and Outcomes: Are Patients Drowning in Information but Starved for Knowledge?

open access: yesTürk Oftalmoloji Dergisi, 2023
Objectives:Microbial keratitis can cause significant visual morbidity and is a common reason for presentation to eye casualty clinics. Contact lens wear and poor contact lens hygiene significantly increase the risk of corneal infection.

Stress concentration in periodically rough hertzian contact: Hertz to soft-flat-punch transition

open access: yes, 2016
We report on the elastic contact between a spherical lens and a patterned substrate, composed of an hexagonal lattice of cylindrical pillars. The stress field and the size of the contact area are obtained by means of numerical methods (discrete Green's ...

Finite Element Modeling of Residual Stress Formation during Nanosecond Laser Ablation of Stainless Steel

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article investigates residual stress formation during single‐spot nanosecond laser ablation of stainless steel. Experimental validation and a parametric study using finite element simulations are employed to analyze thermal effects, ablation dynamics, and stress evolution.

Relationship of Peripapillary Retinal Perfusion with Peripapillary Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in Diabetes Mellitus Patients without Diabetic Retinopathy

open access: yesIJRETINA (International Journal of Retina), 2021
Introduction: Impaired blood flow is an early sign of retinal dysfunction in diabetes. Impaired blood flow of the radial peripapillary capillaries can affect the Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) or ganglion cell function.

Fabrication of Miniaturized Variable-focus Lens Using Liquid Filling Technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This paper describes a simple method for fabricating a variable-focus lens by using PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) and filling with liquid for the variable-focus lens. The lens diameter of 2-mm was designed in this experiment and expected to reach the focal

Optimized Strategy for Fabricating High‐Aspect‐Ratio Periodic Structures Over Large Areas Using ps‐Direct Laser Interference Patterning

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Picosecond direct laser interference patterning (DLIP) enables precise microstructure fabrication on stainless steel. Using a multiscan approach, high‐aspect‐ratio patterns are achieved. Fluence influences structure growth and homogeneity, with smaller periods yielding better uniformity.
