Fracture-Fracture Interaction during Grouting

open access: yes, 2010
Sealing of self-supporting underground constructions is often done with grouting or pre-grouting, most often with cementitious grouts. In order to achieve sufficient sealing, fine fractures must be penetrated long distances before the grout hardens. This

Effect of immediate dentin sealing on the fracture strength of lithium disilicate ceramic onlays

open access: yes, 2022
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of immediate dentin sealing (IDS) on the fracture strength of ceramic onlays when compared with delayed dentin sealing (DDS). Twenty extracted human maxillary premolars were randomly divided into 2 groups according

Utilizing the Metastability of Spidroins as a Strategy for Improving Mechanical Properties of Biomimetic Spider Silk Fibers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phase transitions are central for the assembly of recombinant silk proteins into fibers. Soluble protein can transition into condensed states such as condensates and gels. These states are metastable and evolve in a time‐dependent way. Metastability depends on the protein sequence, and this relationship can be used to enhance the mechanical properties ...

Numerical simulations of fracture propagation and sealing: implications for wellbore strengthening [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
To mitigate the small tolerance between pore pressure and fracture gradients an engineering practice referred to as wellbore strengthening is conducted to increase the fracture gradient.

Self-sealing Mechanisms of Fractured Rock

open access: yes, 2021
Aqueous fluids play a major role in the Earth’s Crust: fluids alter porosity and permeability, transport material, dissolve and precipitate minerals and couple with deformation.

A Thermoreversible Gelation Pathway to Plant Cuticle‐Inspired Biopolymer Aerogel Monoliths Based on Network‐Spherulitic Crystal Assemblies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
To address functionality limitations in plant‐based and industrially compostable polymer aerogels, this work introduces bio‐inspired aerogels with broadened functionality. Inspired by functional plant tissues, lightweight biopolymer aerogels based on exclusively stereocomplex crystals are fabricated, featuring hierarchically macro‐/meso‐porous ...

Grouting Diffusion Mechanism in a Single Fracture under Flowing Water Conditions [PDF]

open access: yes长江科学院院报
[Objective] Existing grouting theories and engineering experience are mostly based on hydrostatic or weakly flowing water conditions, making it difficult to accurately describe the diffusion and evolution characteristics of grout under dynamic water-flow

Tamper‐Responsive Physical Unclonable Functions via Graphene‐Interlayered Block Copolymer Random Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐invalidating multilayer physical unclonable functions (PUFs) integrate fingerprint‐like metal nanopattern bilayers from block copolymer templates with highly reactive reduced graphene oxide (rGO) interlayers. This tamper‐responsive architecture blocks all unauthorized physical and chemical replication attempts while autonomously deactivating ...
