The relationships between tensile strength, mode I and mode II fracture toughness of rock: An empirical and microcracking perspective [PDF]
The empirical relationships between tensile strength, mode I and mode II fracture toughness obtained by previous studies have the problem of a small amount of data for fitting, and more data are needed for further study.

Neural network identification of the weakly coherent mode in I-mode discharge on EAST
The improved energy confinement mode (I-mode) is widely considered as an important operation regime for ITER. I-mode implementation depends on the specified basic plasma parameters and certain operation conditions, which are discovered by statistical ...

Aitken mode particles as CCN in aerosol- and updraft-sensitive regimes of cloud droplet formation [PDF]
The high variability of aerosol particle concentrations, sizes and chemical composition makes their description challenging in atmospheric models. Aerosol–cloud interaction studies are usually focused on the activation of accumulation mode particles as ...

Delivering interlaminar reinforcement in composites through electrospun nanofibres
Electrospun nonwoven veils comprising thermoplastic fibres (average diameter 400–600 nm) based on polysulfone (PSU), polyamide (PA-6,6), and polyetherimide (PEI) have been fabricated and used as interlaminar reinforcements in carbon fibre composites ...

Fatigue delamination behaviour of unidirectional carbon fibre/epoxy laminates reinforced by Z-Fiber® pinnin [PDF]
-Pin reinforced carbon-fibre epoxy laminates were tested under Mode I and Mode II conditions, both quasi-statically and in fatigue. Test procedures were adapted from existing standard or pre-standard tests. Samples containing 2% and 4% areal densities
