Optimization of microwave vacuum drying of pineapples: A three-stage approach

open access: yesResults in Engineering
The present study aims to optimize the microwave vacuum drying (MVD) of pineapples using three analytical stages: One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), the Taguchi method, and process adjustment.

Compressive wave speeds in dry, confined granular mixtures

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
The behavior of waves in granular aggregates holds significance in engineering and geotechnical applications alike. Earlier studies have investigated wave propagation in granular media, often estimating bulk elastic properties from measured wave speeds and proposing scaling laws relating wave speed to confining pressure.

Thermoreflectance Detection of Point Defects Resulting from Focused Ion Beam Milling

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Focused ion beam (FIB) milling is a common tool for nanoscale material processing, however irradiation damage, redeposition, and contamination can occur. We use several characterization tools to show FIB‐induced effects beyond 1 mm from the milled area.

Phase Field Model for Dynamics of Sweeping Interface

open access: yes, 2005
Motivated by the drying pattern experiment by Yamazaki and Mizuguchi[J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. {\bf 69} (2000) 2387], we propose the dynamics of sweeping interface, in which material distributed over a region is swept by a moving interface.

Experimental Evaluation of 100Cr6 Steel Microindented Surfaces Under Lubricated Nonconformal Point Contacts

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

Coffee-stain growth dynamics on dry and wet surfaces

open access: yes, 2016
The drying of a drop containing particles often results in the accumulation of the particles at the contact line. In this work, we investigate the drying of an aqueous colloidal drop surrounded by a hydrogel that is also evaporating.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Modelling of the dip-coating process [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Dipcoating, wherein an object is withdrawn from a liquid bath, retaining a thin layer of liquid which then dries, is perhaps the simplest of coating techniques.

Evaluation of drying kinetics, energy consumption, thermo-physical characteristics, and color quality of sweet cherries dried in an active-passive indirect dryer

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
Since cherries are a seasonal product, it is not possible to obtain them at all times of the year. Due to their high moisture content, they cannot be stored for long periods of time.

What Do Large Language Models Know About Materials?

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
If large language models (LLMs) are to be used inside the material discovery and engineering process, they must be benchmarked for the accurateness of intrinsic material knowledge. The current work introduces 1) a reasoning process through the processing–structure–property–performance chain and 2) a tool for benchmarking knowledge of LLMs concerning ...
