Predictive Assessment of Progressive Damage in Mechanically Fastened Glass–Epoxy Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Progressive damage in mechanically fastened glass–epoxy composites. ABSTRACT Ensuring the structural integrity of advanced composites necessitates precise methodologies for forecasting the onset and progression of damage. This research focused on the predicting progressive damage (PD) for riveted joints composite laminates employing a combined ...

Understanding Light‐Soaking Effects in Silicon Solar Cells by Considering Charge Carrier‐Enhanced Atomic Hydrogen Release

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
We show that many hydrogen‐related effects in silicon solar cells can be explained by direct electron‐assisted acceptor‐hydrogen pair dissociation. Most importantly, it leads to a high concentration of atomic hydrogen, which is highly reactive and diffusive. We provide a unified physical description of LeTID.

Deformation, Creep, and Dynamics in Glassy Ionomers

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Ionic architecture tunes the inelastic deformation of glassy ionomers. Simulations show that ionic associations leave the small‐strain elastic baseline nearly unchanged, but strongly reinforce yielding, strain hardening, and creep resistance. Polyampholyte architectures suppress nonaffine mobility and stress‐induced fluidization most effectively by ...

Improve the Thermal Conductivity, Insulation Performance and Mechanical Properties of Silicone Rubber by Constructing EG‐PDA‐Cu Hybrid Nanoparticles

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
In this work, a novel expanded graphite‐supported nano‐copper polydopamine composite was designed and synthesized. The procedure involved first modifying EG via a mussel‐inspired technique to deposit a polydopamine coating, after which Cu2+ ions were reduced to immobilize copper nanoparticles onto the EG‐PDA substrate.

Impact of Stabilizing Osmolytes on the Conformational Dynamics of Human and Rat Islet Amyloid Polypeptides

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aggregation of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) into cytotoxic oligomers and amyloid fibrils is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), leading to pancreatic β‐cell dysfunction. In contrast, rat IAPP (rIAPP) is largely non‐amyloidogenic. Osmolytes such as glucose, glycerol, and sorbitol are known to stabilize globular protein
