A Geometrically Transient Platform for Bioelectronic Implants

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Minimally invasive bioelectronic implants often compromise performance for smaller sizes. To resolve this optimization dilemma, a wireless bioelectronic implant with a transient geometry is introduced (MiFi). The origami‐inspired device miniaturizes up to sixfold for syringe insertion and autonomously unfolds post‐implantation.

EFFECTS OF SAWING PATTERN ON DRYING RATE AND RESIDUAL DRYING STRESSES OF PINUS RADIATA LUMBER

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2002
Flatsawn and quartersawn Pinus radiata (radiata pine) sapwood boards were dried in a tunnel dryer in three runs using three drying schedules. These schedules represented low temperature (LT), accelerated conventional temperature (ACT) and high ...

QUALITY OF SAWN TIMBER DRYING OF Eucalyptus dunnii

Ciência Florestal, 2009
In the present study, the behaviour of Eucalyptus dunnii wood drying in a conventional pilot kiln was evaluated, using three drying schedules. Each drying schedule had an initial vaporization (presteaming) of 3 hours after one hour of initial warming ...

Effect of Drying Schedules on the Drying Time and Quality of Dendrocalamus barbatus Bamboo Using Solar Energy Integrated with Steam Heated Source

BioResources, 2023
Bamboo is recognized as a promising material. It is widely distributed in Vietnam. Bamboo products are quite diverse. However, bamboo materials have been primarily air-dried in open locations.

MEASUREMENT OF COLOUR DEVELOPMENT IN PINUS RADIATA SAPWOOD BOARDS DURING DRYING AT VARIOUS SCHEDULE

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2005
Colour changes, such as kiln brown stain, that develop in Pinus radiata boards during kiln drying can reduce the value of the final wood products and result in significant losses due to downgrade or waste of dried wood by removing the darkened surfaces ...

Tailoring Symmetry Breaking in Engineered van der Waals Superlattices

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We pioneer a scheme to tailor superpotentials in graphene based on intrinsic substrate electronic orders rather than twist angle. The resulting superpotential folds graphene's Dirac cones to either Γ$\Gamma$ or K‐points, leading to distinct symmetry behaviors.

New methodology to optimize sorting in wood drying

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014
One important problem in lumber drying is to maintain the lumber moisture content distribution within certain minimum and maximum values. Over-drying and under-drying are common causes for lower grade recovery and dimensional stability problems.

Drying characteristics of wood of invasive tree species growing in an urban environment

Les, 2019
Non-native tree species are increasingly growing in urban environments, where they are exposed to cultivation and pruning measures, and in many cases their growth becomes uncontrolled, even invasive.

Agar‐Based Optical Sensing System With a Phosphorescent Grid Pattern for Measuring Stress Distributions of Root Growth Using the Sampling Moiré Method

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper presents an agar medium with a phosphorescent grid pattern that measures the stress distribution generated by growing plant roots. Using phosphorescence, the system optically separates the grid pattern from the root and extracts the grid deformation.
