Unidirectional Tape‐Based Composites from Hemp and Pineapple Leaf Fiber: Mechanical Performance in Conventional and Bio‐Based Matrices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The study investigates novel semi‐finished products made of unidirectionally arranged hemp or pineapple leaf fiber‐reinforced composites produced from different matrices. The materials are analyzed in terms of their mechanical and interfacial properties and void content.

Coupling Analysis of Fluid-Structure Interaction and Flow Erosion of Gas-Solid Flow in Elbow Pipe

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2014
A numerical simulation has been conducted to investigate flow erosion and pipe deformation of elbow in gas-solid two-phase flow. The motion of the continuous fluid phase is captured based on calculating three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged-Navier-Stokes ...

Adaptations of the flat jack test for its application in cob walls

open access: yesMethodsX, 2020
The single and double flat jack tests have been successfully applied for the first time in cob walls. This technique has been used for over 40 years in the field of cultural heritage conservation to investigate the levels of stress in different masonry ...

Sustainable Catalyst‐Free PLG Networks: Recyclability, Biodegradability, and Functional Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A catalyst‐additive free covalent adaptable network is developed from star‐shaped poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) cross‐linked with pyromellitic dianhydride, enabling internal carboxylic acid‐driven transesterification. The resulting biodegradable network exhibits mechanical robustness (Young's modulus ≈1.6 GPa), complete recyclability, rapid biodegradation

Failure transition of shear-to-dilation band of rock salt under triaxial stresses

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
Great potential of underground gas/energy storage in salt caverns seems to be a promising solution to support renewable energy. In the underground storage method, the operating cycle unfortunately may reach up to daily or even hourly, which generates ...

Characteristics of the stationary behaviour of water- and oil-based power-control hydraulics

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we demonstrate with stationary pa-rameters the functionality of water hydraulics in compari-son to the usual oil hydraulics. The movements of the wa-ter hydraulics’ cylinder rod differed from the movements of the oil hydraulic cylinder by 2

Novel Functional Materials via 3D Printing by Vat Photopolymerization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Perspective systematically analyzes strategies for incorporating functionalities into 3D‐printed materials via Vat Photopolymerization (VP). It explores the spectrum of achievable functionalities in recently reported novel materials—such as conductive, energy‐storing, biodegradable, stimuli‐responsive, self‐healing, shape‐memory, biomaterials, and
