Strong Lead‐Free Bioinspired Piezoceramics for Durable Energy Transducers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We fabricated brick‐and‐mortar lead‐free piezoceramics with Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 monocrystal platelets as bricks and amorphous silica as mortar. The alignment of the bricks and the presence of the amorphous silica led to anisotropic residual stresses. These residual stresses increase the samples toughness, strength and durability while the brick alignment ...

In Situ Measurements of Interfacial Contact Pressure During Impact Hammer Tests [PDF]

, 2018
Understanding the nonlinear dynamical contact interactions within joints is crucial for understanding and predicting the dynamics of assembled structures. In spite of this, most experimental investigations focused on the global vibration behavior, since the local interactions at the interface cannot be observed with standard techniques.

Engineering Concentration‐Dependent Intravitreal Mobility via Cyclic Arginine‐Enriched Nanocarrier Surface Modification: In Vivo Proof‐of‐Concept in a Porcine Large Animal Model

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, Hammer et al. highlight cyclic‐arginine surface engineering as a highly biocompatible, controllable, and concentration‐dependent regulator of intravitreal nanoparticle mobility in vivo in a translational large animal model. The cyclic arginine surface‐modification supports the development of next‐generation biomaterials for long‐acting ...

Estimation of Impact Hardness of Rocks by Means of Drop Hammer Test.

Shigen-to-Sozai, 1992
The impact hardness of rock is normally determined by using a ‘Protodyakonov’ type drop hammer. However, this test cannot be applied to a wide range of rocks. Therefore, standardized impact hardness test using the ‘Protodyakonov’ type drop hammer was carried out and the correlati ons of the resulting values of impact hardness with the mechanical ...

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Impact noise test method using a modified hammer machine [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1975
The current national (ASTM E-492) and international (ISO-R140/R717) impact method involves the use of a standard hammer machine for evaluating the impact noise isolation of floor/ceiling structure. The method has been severely criticized on the ground that ratings based on the test data correlate poorly with the subjective judgments of people listening
