CLEAR - Contact lens complications. [PDF]

open access: yesContact lens & anterior eye : the journal of the British Contact Lens Association, 2021
Contact lens-related complications are common, affecting around one third of wearers, although most are mild and easily managed. Contact lenses have well-defined anatomical and physiological effects on the ocular surface and can result in other consequences due to the presence of a biologically active material.

Interaction between Molten Al‐Killed Mn–B Steel and Carbon‐Bonded MgO Refractories Based on Recyclates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐temperature interactions between low‐sulfur Al‐killed Mn–B steel and MgO–C refractories (0 and 50 wt% recyclates) are studied via finger immersion tests (1600 °C). Surface‐active elements influence infiltration. MgO/CaS layer forms, along with spinel and calcium silicate.

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.

Contact mechanics for randomly rough surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
When two solids are squeezed together they will in general not make atomic contact everywhere within the nominal (or apparent) contact area. This fact has huge practical implications and must be considered in many technological applications.

Investigation of Laser Ablation and Brush Pre‐Treatments for AlCu Cold Roll Bonding in Oxygen‐Free Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...

A biocompatible active artificial iris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A contact lens mimicking an artificial iris is presented as solution for people suffering from iris deficiencies. As this is a biomedical device, biocompatibility is a key specification for material choice and design.

Characterization of Nitinol Produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion for Mechanical Metamaterial Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Stabilization of L‐PBF Ni50.7Ti49.3 under low‐cycle loading was investigated. Recoverable strain after cycling was dependent on the amount of applied load. Recovery ratio was 53.4% and 35.1% at intermediate and high load, respectively. The maximum total strain reached 10.3% at a high load of 1200 MPa.

Self-Assembly of Zinc Oxide Photonic Crystals in Viscous Liquids: Synthesis, Characterization, and Application to Colored Contact Lenses

open access: yesPhotonics
Structural color is a kind of natural color that widely exists in nature. The ordered microstructure of nano materials can absorb or reflect light of specific wavelength, thus showing colorful colors. Structural color is an ideal choice for color contact

Use of the Visante™ OCT to measure the sagittal depth and scleral shape of keratoconus compared to normal corneae: Pilot study

open access: yesJournal of Optometry, 2013
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to demonstrate and compare the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in measuring sagittal depth (SD) and in describing the corneo–scleral junctions with the use of scleral angles, in a population of keratoconics
