Evaluation of Mechanical, Thermal, Rheological, and Biocompatibility Properties of Additively Manufactured Metal‐Reinforced Biocomposites Optimized by Reinforcement Ratios and Printing Parameters

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of PLA/316L stainless steel composite filament production via fused deposition modeling, demonstrating the trade‐off between stainless steel content, mechanical enhancement, and biocompatibility. ABSTRACT Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable thermoplastic widely used in biomedical devices; however, its inherent brittleness ...

Vegetable oils as lube basestocks: A review

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Biotechnology, 2015
The depletion of the world’s crude oil reserve, increasing crude oil prices, and issues related to conservation have brought about renewed interest in the use of bio-based materials. Emphasis on the development of renewable, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly lubricants has resulted in the widespread use of natural oils and fats.

Abductive and Consistency-Based Diagnosis Revisited: a Modeling Perspective

open access: yes, 2000
Diagnostic reasoning has been characterized logically as consistency-based reasoning or abductive reasoning. Previous analyses in the literature have shown, on the one hand, that choosing the (in general more restrictive) abductive definition may be ...

Surface Modification of Sisal Fibers for Enhanced Interface and Performance in Bio‐Based Polyurethane Composites

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the processing of sisal fibers (Agave sisalana) and their incorporation into bio‐based polyurethane composites. The fibers are extracted from the plant and subjected to surface modification via corona discharge and alkaline (NaOH) treatments.

The use of oil for in-flight flow visualization [PDF]

open access: yes
Oil was used to visualize inflight aerodynamic characteristics such as boundary layer transition, shock wave location, regions of separated flow, and surface flow direction. The technique, which is similar to wind tunnel oil-flow testing, involves an oil

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Performance tests with a 4.75 inch bore tapered-roller bearings at high speeds [PDF]

open access: yes
The tapered-roller bearings were tested at speeds to 15,000 rpm which results in a cone-rib tangential velocity of 130 m/sec. (25,500 ft/min). Lubrication was applied either by jets or directly to the cone-rib, augmented with jets.
