New image analysis of large food particles can discriminate experimentally suppressed mastication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objective parameters that could provide a basis for food texture selection for elderly or dysphagic patients have not been established. We, therefore, aimed to develop a precise method of measuring large particles (>2 mm in diameter) in a bolus and an ...

Effects of Carbon Nanoparticles on Triboelectro‐Induced Surface Defects

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Carbon nanoparticles added to grease modify the electrocontact behavior. The synergy of particle concentration and electric current dominates the surface damage of metals in contact. Electrical surface damage caused by current leakage is a critical challenge in high‐performance applications such as electric vehicle (EV) drivetrains and wind turbine ...

Modelling of the drying section of a continuous paper machine : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master in Production Technology at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The invention of paper in 105 A.D. was a milestone in the history of civilization and demand for paper has been increasing steadily ever since. Although it has become more and more popular to store, process and transfer information in electronic forms ...

Manufacturing Continuous Fiber‐Reinforced Printing Filaments: Development of a Post‐Consolidation Unit

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A novel, temperature‐controlled post‐consolidation unit is developed to test its potential to improve the melt impregnation process used to manufacture continuous fiber‐reinforced filaments for additive manufacturing of high‐performance thermoplastics.

Thermal Conductivity Measurements of Wet Paper [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
The thermal conductivity of wet paper mats was studied as a function of moisture content and porosity. The conductivity measurements were conducted with a steady-state hot plate apparatus.

Diffusiophoresis in non-adsorbing polymer solutions: the Asakura-Oosawa model and stratification in drying films [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A colloidal particle placed in an inhomogeneous solution of smaller non-adsorbing polymers will move towards regions of lower polymer concentration, in order to reduce the free energy of the interface between the surface of the particle and the solution.

Can Ti‐Based MXenes Serve as Solid Lubricants for Brake Applications? A Tribological Study

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the first implementation of Ti‐based MXenes materials in brake pad friction composite material. The resulting composite material exhibits a 48% reduction in the wear rate; alongside significant improvements are observed for thermal and mechanical properties.

Shrinkage effect on diffusion coefficient during carrot drying

open access: yes, 2018
Many studies have been previously carried out on the carrot drying and the undergoing processes. The developed mathematical models provide an opportunity to gain an understanding of this complex process and its dynamics. But they are sim plified and based on a number of assumptions, including calculation of diffusion coefficient values.

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.

Revisiting the vapor diffusion coefficient in dry snow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract. A substantial degree of uncertainty surrounds the value of the diffusion coefficient for water vapor diffusing through snow under the influence of a temperature gradient. A collection of theoretical, numerical, and experimental studies suggest the value of the normalized diffusion coefficient of snow with respect to water vapor diffusing ...
