Composite Materials with Enhanced Conductivities [PDF]
Advanced Engineering Materials, 2016 The authors have analyzed the isotropic thermal/electrical conductivities of two types of specially structured composite materials. Closed‐form results have been obtained for predicting the conductivities of the composites, and the accuracy has been verified by FE simulations.

Toughening materials: enhancing resistance to fracture [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2021 It has been said that ‘God invented plasticity, but the Devil invented fracture!’ Both mechanisms represent the two prime modes of structural failure, respectively, plastic collapse and the rupture/breaking of a component, but the concept of developing materials with enhanced resistance to fracture can be difficult. This is because

Novel materials to enhance keratoprosthesis integration [PDF]
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2000 The successful integration of keratoprostheses (KPros) within the cornea depends in part on peripheral host keratocyte adhesion to anchor the implant in place and prevent epithelial downgrowth. The following study incorporated different acrylate co-monomers with poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (p(HEMA)) and measured the suitability of these materials ...
