Friction stir welding of commercially available superplastic aluminium

open access: yes, 2010
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.A series of Friction Stir Welds (FSW) has been produced in order to optimise tool designs and weld/process variables to minimise flaws in the weld and ...

Bioadhesive Hydrogel With Polyphenol‐Armored Nanogene Rejuvenates Chondrocyte Senescence for Aged Osteoarthritis Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An adhesive hydrogel depot with polyphenol‐armored nanogenes is developed for treating aged osteoarthritis. This system maintains miR‐140 bioactivity, prolongs its intra‐articular retention, and enhances transfection into chondrocytes, leading to the downregulation of senescence‐associated pathways.

Numerical and artificial neural network modelling of friction stir welding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis is based on the PhD work of investigating the Friction Stir Welding process (FSW) with numerical and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) modelling methods. FSW was developed at TWI in 1991. As a relatively new technology it has great advantages

A Biomimetic Lubricant Captures Hyaluronic Acid In Situ to Regenerate Cartilage: From Bench to Bedside

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
(a) The outstanding lubricative properties of natural articular cartilage arise from a composite coating composed of HA, lubricin, and phospholipids at its surface. Notably, lubricin facilitates the enrichment of synovial HA onto cartilage surfaces, and HA complexes with phospholipids, a key component to maintain extremely low friction under high ...

Analysis of Banded Texture of Friction Stir Weld Bead Surface by Image Processing Technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The tool shoulder of friction stir welding is considered to be one of the prime element which controls the material flow and heat input, generating required temperature and hydrostatic pressure along the weld line in ...

Programmable Hydration Pathways Enable Reconfigurable Ionic Thermoelectrics for Energy Harvesting and Thermal‐Tactile Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Programmable hydration pathways enable reconfigurable ionic thermoelectrics in polyquaternium hydrogels. By coupling microscopic solvation, mesoscale water channels, and macroscopic boundary control, hydration‐gated protonics decouples thermopower, response speed, and stability.

A comparison between single sided and double sided friction stir welded 8mm thick DH36 steel plate

open access: yes, 2012
As part of an ongoing process to fully evaluate the potential for friction stir welding (FSW) to be used in the shipbuilding industry, a comparison has been made between two variants of the process.

In Situ Stress‐Dispersing Hydrogel Millispheres via Load Redistribution to Restore Nucleus Pulposus Metabolic Homeostasis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Local stress concentration disrupts metabolic homeostasis and induces inflammation in the nucleus pulposus (NP), thereby accelerating intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). A biomimetic HA/ChS hydrogel millimeter sphere (ChS@HM) is developed to enable synergistic stress dispersion and sustained hydration lubrication.

A Crack‐Based One‐Dimensional Microspheres Array Enables Thermal–Mechanical Decoupled Dual‐Functional Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by Nostoc, a crack‐based one‐dimensional microspheres array (COMA) sensor is developed, which stabilizes crack geometry under isotropic expansion, enabling a predictable, monotonic thermal response from which true strain can be accurately extracted. The COMA sensor exhibits high sensitivity at ultralow deformation (gauge factor up to 89) and a

Effect of Friction Stir Processing (FSP) to the Mechanical Properties of 7075-T73 Aluminum Alloys Plates Welded by Friction Stir Welding

open access: yesJournal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2014
Friction stir processing is a new method of changing the properties of a metal through intense, localized plastic deformation ,this process mixes the material without changing the phase (by melting or otherwise) and creates a microstructure with fine,
