Study the Effect of Chemical and Enzymatic Extraction Methods on the Kenaf Fibers Properties

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
In this paper, two extraction methods for kenaf fiber, The chemical process and the enzymatic one, were performed. These processes were used to extract fibers from the kenaf stem and the chemical, mechanical and morphologic properties of the extracted ...

Wetting morphologies on randomly oriented fibers [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal E, 2015
We characterize the different morphologies adopted by a drop of liquid placed on two randomly oriented fibers, which is a first step toward understanding the wetting of fibrous networks. The present work reviews previous modeling for parallel and touching crossed fibers and extends it to an arbitrary orientation of the fibers characterized by the ...

Exploiting the Amazonian Açaí Palm Leaves Potential as Reinforcement for Cement Composites through Alkali and Bleaching Treatments

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Recent investigations proposed alternatives for utilization of Açaí (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) fruit wastes, seeds, and lignocellulosic fibers. However, Açaí leaves may also be obtained without harvesting the palms and could be used in higher value-added ...

MFC: A Morphological Fiber Classification Approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Diffusion imaging is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that provides the examination of neuronal pathways in vivo. High angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) is able to reconstruct more than one fiber population within one voxel and hence, overcomes the limitations of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).

Architecture of the sperm whale forehead facilitates ramming combat [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Herman Melville’s novel Moby Dick was inspired by historical instances in which large sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus L.) sank 19th century whaling ships by ramming them with their foreheads.
