Molecular Appendix Adjusted Architectural Propagations of Red‐Light Controlled Macroscopic Photoactuating Performances

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Amphiphilic chloroazobenzenes, bearing different amino acids as end groups alanine, phenylalanine, and valine, exhibit excellent photoisomerizations. Varying structures of three amino acid groups participate in supramolecular formations and therefore photoinduced morphological transformations via adjusting intermolecular interactions. These interaction

Updating concrete drying-shrinkage prediction models for local materials

open access: yes, 2004
This paper addresses the need to update existing concrete drying-shrinkage prediction models to reflect local materials. The experimental program was carried out using eight concrete mixtures of similar strength, manufactured with portland and portland ...

Force–Displacement Characterization of PNIPAM Microactuators

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A method to experimentally establish a force–displacement diagram of poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) microactuators, printed by 2PP, is presented herein. PNIPAM is a hydrogel whose volume and stiffness change with temperature due to the absorption or release of water.

Prediction of differential drying shrinkage in concrete

open access: yes, 1998
The non-uniform moisture distribution in concrete causes the differential drying shrinkage. From this type of differential drying shrinkage, tensile stress occurs on the exposed surface of concrete structures and may result in crack formation.
