Ageing behaviour of folded joints produced by fusion bonding of an outer metal sheet and an inner organic sheet

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Joining Processes
Adhesive hemming is a process used in the automotive industry to join two metal sheets with good structural performance and good optical appearance of the rim. A new approach is to replace the inner metal sheet by a fibre-reinforced thermoplastic polymer

Computational analyses decipher the primordial folding coding the 3D structure of the beetle horn

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The beetle horn primordium is a complex and compactly folded epithelial sheet located beneath the larval cuticle. Only by unfolding the primordium can the complete 3D shape of the horn appear, suggesting that the morphology of beetle horns is encoded in ...

A Concept of a Digital and Traceable Manufacturing Documentation Based on Formalized Process Description Applied on Composite Aircraft Moveable

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The documentation of component manufacture has become an essential part of today's production processes, especially for the analysis and optimization of production or component design with regard to structural performance, economic efficiency, and sustainability.

F-theory on 6D symmetric toroidal orbifolds

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
In this work we study F-theory on symmetric toroidal orbifolds that exhibit roto-translations, which are point group rotations accompanied by fractional lattice shifts. These geometries admit a rich class of effects, such as twisted affine folded fibers,

Relativistic Particle Acceleration in a Folded Current Sheet

open access: yes, 2004
Two-dimensional particle simulations of a relativistic Harris current sheet of pair plasmashave demonstrated that the system is unstable to the relativistic drift kink instability (RDKI) and that a new kind of acceleration process takes place in the ...

Wrinkles and folds in a fluid-supported sheet of finite size [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A laterally confined thin elastic sheet lying on a liquid substrate displays regular undulations, called wrinkles, characterized by a spatially extended energy distribution and a well-defined wavelength $\lambda$.

Unidirectional Tape‐Based Composites from Hemp and Pineapple Leaf Fiber: Mechanical Performance in Conventional and Bio‐Based Matrices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The study investigates novel semi‐finished products made of unidirectionally arranged hemp or pineapple leaf fiber‐reinforced composites produced from different matrices. The materials are analyzed in terms of their mechanical and interfacial properties and void content.

Photoswitchable Conductive Metal–Organic Frameworks

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A conductive material where the conductivity can be modulated remotely by irradiation with light is presented. It is based on films of conductive metal–organic framework type Cu3(HHTP)2 with embedded photochromic molecules such as azobenzene, diarylethene, spiropyran, and hexaarylbiimidazole in the pores.

The Folded Paper Size Illusion: Evidence of Inability to Perceptually Integrate More Than One Geometrical Dimension

open access: yesi-Perception, 2016
The folded paper-size illusion is as easy to demonstrate as it is powerful in generating insights into perceptual processing: First take two A4 sheets of paper, one original sized, another halved by folding, then compare them in terms of area size by ...

Estimated secondary structure propensities within V1/V2 region of HIV gp120 are an important global antibody neutralization sensitivity determinant.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundNeutralization sensitivity of HIV-1 virus to antibodies and anti-sera varies greatly between the isolates. Significant role of V1/V2 domain as a global neutralization sensitivity regulator has been suggested.
