Hygrothermal Aging of Amine Epoxy: Reversible Static and Fatigue Properties

open access: yes, 2018
Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) are widely used in structural applications. Long-term properties of such materials exposed to water are of high concern and interest, especially for subsea and offshore applications.

Hygrothermal aging of particle-filled epoxy-based composites

open access: yes, 2023
In this study hygrothermal aging in two particle-filled epoxy-based composites was investigated. The filler loading of both composites was comparable but differed in the filler type (portland cement; quartz).

Moth‐Wing‐Inspired Multifunctional Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 9, 12 February 2026.
This study develops a moth‐wing‐inspired heterogeneous metamaterial that achieves synergistic broadband sound absorption, mechanical energy dissipation, and thermal insulation within a lightweight architected framework. Combining bioinspired gradient design, genetic‐algorithm optimization, and additive manufacturing, the bionic heterogeneous acoustic ...

Morphological traits and environmental preferences of the Blunt‐headed tree snake Imantodes cenchoa: the effects of sex and ontogeny

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 328, Issue 1, Page 41-51, January 2026.
Understanding how animals interact with their environment across life stages is key for conservation. In our long‐term study of the Blunt‐headed tree snake (Imantodes cenchoa) in the tropical rainforest of Los Tuxtlas, Mexico, we tracked over 240 individuals and found age‐related differences in environmental preferences.

Investigation on the Durability of PLA Bionanocomposite Fibers Under Hygrothermal Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2019
Hygrothermal aging of neat poly(lactic acid) (PLA), PLA/microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), and PLA/cellulose nanowhiskers (CNW) fibers prepared by melt-spinning process was investigated at 95% relative humidity (RH) and two temperatures, i.e., 45 and 60°C.
