Mechanical Characterization of Adobe Bricks

open access: yes, 2021
The mechanical characterization of adobe bricks is an important first step in the study of the behaviour of adobe masonry. For this reason, in the last decades, different authors have conducted research on the mechanical behaviour of adobes from various regions of the world.

Fabrication and mechanical characterization of polypropylene clay nanocomposites

open access: yes, 2021
Investigating the influence of process parameters is vital to enhance the mechanical properties of nanoparticle reinforced polymer composites. Nanocomposites of polypropylene/nanoclay are prepared by the extrusion method.

A Review on Heat Treatment of Cast Iron: Phase Evolution and Mechanical Characterization

open access: yes, 2022
The isothermal heat treatment process has been identified as a unique process of fabricating exceptional graphite cast iron due to its remarkable mechanical properties, such as excellent machinability, toughness, and high level of ultimate tensile ...

Characterization of Acoustic Emissions from Mechanical Seals for Fault Detection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The application of high-frequency Acoustic Emissions (AE) for mechanical seals diagnosis is gaining acceptance as a useful complimentary tool. This paper investigates the AE characteristics of mechanical seals under different rotational speed and fluid ...

Fracture mechanics characterization of an anisotropic geomaterial [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering Fracture Mechanics, 2012
Argillites are considered worldwide as potential host rock for high level radioactive waste given the low permeability and strong adsorption potential. However, the excavation of the galleries of a repository would produce a disturbed zone around the boundaries rich of new fractures which may enhance the conductivity of the rock along the gallery axis.

Thermal-Mechanical Properties of Polyurethane-Clay Shape Memory Polymer Nanocomposites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Shape memory nanocomposites of polyurethane (PU)-clay were fabricated by melt mixing of PU and nano-clay. Based on nano-indentation and microhardness tests, the strength of the nanocomposites increased dramatically as a function of clay content, which is

An algorithmic characterization of multi-dimensional mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the forty-fourth annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing, 2012
We show that every feasible, Bayesian, multi-item multi-bidder mechanism for independent, additive bidders can be implemented as a mechanism that: (a) allocates every item independently of the other items; (b) for the allocation of each item it uses a strict ordering of all bidders' types; and allocates the item using a distribution over hierarchical ...

Mechanical characterization of elastic membranes: Cell mechanics applications [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 2007
Wrinkled patterns produced by cells crawling onto elastic membranes provide a useful tool to test living cells’ locomotion. The technique, however, requires a characterization of the intrinsic properties and tension of the membrane as well as an accurate determination of the deformation induced by the cell.

Large structure-dependent room temperature exchange bias in self-assembled BiFeO3 nanoparticles

open access: yesAPL Materials, 2020
We studied the magnetic properties of self-assembled aggregates of BiFeO3 nanoparticles (∼20 nm–40 nm). The aggregates formed two different structures—one with limited and another with massive crosslinking—via the “drying-mediated self-assembly” process ...
