Viscoelasticity of Edam cheese during its ripening

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2010
Series of the indentation of the ball (10 mm in diameter) by the constant speed into blocks of Edam cheese has been conducted. The indentation tests were performed at different speeds (1, 5, 10, 20 and 100 mm/min), and the corresponding force ...

On 0-cycles with modulus [PDF]

Algebra & Number Theory, 2015
Given a smooth surface $X$ over a field and an effective Cartier divisor $D$, we provide an exact sequence connecting $CH_0(X,D)$ and the relative $K$-group $K_0(X,D)$. We use this exact sequence to answer a question of Kerz and Saito whenever $X$ is a resolution of singularities of a normal surface.

Graphene–Catechol Dental Sealant: Antibacterial and Mechanical Evaluation

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents dental sealants made with graphene and L‐DOPA‐modified graphene. L‐DOPA enhances graphene dispersion, improving sealant properties. The material shows antibacterial activity against S. mutans and L. casei, along with high strength and elasticity.

The reduced minimum modulus. [PDF]

Michigan Mathematical Journal, 1985
Let T be a bounded linear operator in a Banach space. The reduced minimum modulus of T is defined by \[ \gamma (T)=\inf \{\| Tx\|:dist(x,\ker T)=1\}\;if\;T\neq 0\quad and\quad \gamma (T)=0\;if\;T=0. \] In this paper the properties of the reduced minimum modulus of operators in complex Hilbert space setting are investigated.

First‐Principles Modeling of Solid Solution Softening and Hardening Effects in Al–Mg–Zr–Si Aluminum Alloys

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The role of various alloying elements in face‐centered cubic aluminum on the barrier of a Shockley partial dislocation during its motion is presented. The study aims to understand how alloying atoms such as Mg, Si, and Zr affect the energy landscape for dislocation motion, thus influencing the solid solution hardening and softening in aluminum, which ...

A Simulative Approach for the Prediction of Mesoscale Residual Stress Fields in Solution‐Strengthened Ferritic Ductile Iron

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a 3D representative volume element‐based simulation approach to predict mesoscopic residual stress and strain fields in silicon solid solution‐strengthened ductile cast iron. By modeling phase transformation kinetics with an enhanced Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov model, the effects of varying cooling rates on residual stresses are ...

Altering the Mechanical Load Environment During Growth Does Not Affect Adult Achilles Tendon Properties in an Avian Bipedal Model

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Tendon mechanical properties respond to altered load in adults, but how load history during growth affects adult tendon properties remains unclear. To address this question, we adopted an avian model in which we altered the mechanical load environment ...

Residual Stress States in Microstructurally Graded PBF–LB/M Austenitic Steel Components

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines microstructurally graded 316L rectangular tube profiles fabricated via PBF–LB/M using a dual‐laser system. A 1 kW top‐hat and a 400 W Gaussian laser create distinct grain sizes and crystallographic texture. Mechanical properties are linked to microstructural evolution driven by processing conditions.
