An Adaptable Peptide-Based Porous Material

Science, 2010
Swelling Pores Porosity is a key parameter when selecting materials for catalysts, chemical separations, gas storage, host-guest interactions, and related chemical processes. In most cases the porosity of a material is fixed. Rabone et al. (p. 1053

Deformation of Adaptive Materials

2006
Experimental studies of deformation properties of shape memory alloys provide many facts supporting the superelastic behavior described here. The results obtained by Muller and his group should be mentioned specially [4]. The authors have given a phenomenological explanation of their results which is similar to our theory.

Adaptable and adaptive materials for light flux control

SPIE Proceedings, 1996
The purpose of this paper is to describe and examine properties of light flux control materials. Indeed, intelligent light flux control is necessary not only to improve everyday visual convenience but also in an economical point of view in order to reduce global home energetic cost.

Multi-material adaptive volume remesher

Computers & Graphics, 2016
We propose a practical iterative remeshing algorithm for multi-material tetrahedral meshes which is solely based on simple local topological operations, such as edge collapse, flip, split and vertex smoothing. To do so, we exploit an intermediate implicit feature complex which reconstructs piecewise smooth multi-material boundaries made of surface ...

Deformation of adaptive heterophase materials

Journal of Applied Physics, 1995
A crystal which can be in two possible phase states is considered. During tensile extension the crystal is deformed elastically. After a certain amount of elastic strain a phase transformation begins. For each fixed level of strain an equilibrium mesostructure is established, which corresponds to a minimum in the free energy of the crystal.

Creation of adaptive study material

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2018
The paper is aimed at describing the structure of an adaptive study material. An adaptive study material should respect each student’s individuality and their approach to learning and acquiring new information. That is why the paper contains the characteristics of selected learning styles, which were the most important factors in designing the ...

Adapting Crown Preparations to Adhesive Materials

Dental Update, 2000
Traditional approaches to crown preparation for replacement crowns or teeth with short clinical crowns are often overly destructive of tooth tissue. Adhesive cements or composites combined with dentine bonding agents provide the clinician with some flexibility in treatment planning and should be considered when more destructive techniques would ...

Self-Adaptive Material Systems

2002
The concept, realization and properties of self-adaptive material (SAM) systems are presented. Reflection, transmission and radiation characteristics are analyzed using array techniques and effective medium theory. Optimal control techniques are used to yield the transfer function of the SAM controller for a specified cost function.

Adapting and Adopting Materials

2016
The diversity of language teaching contexts around the world is immense. One variable that contributes to that diversity is the amount of control teachers have over what they teach. Many teachers work in a situation where the curriculum, the materials, and the assessment are centrally imposed; this is often the case in national education systems (see e.
