A Variational Beam Model for Failure of Cellular and Truss‐Based Architected Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023 Herein, a versatile and efficient beam modeling framework is developed to predict the nonlinear response and failure of cellular, truss‐based, and woven architected materials. It enables the exploration of their design space and the optimization of their mechanical behavior in the nonlinear regime. A variational formulation of a beam model is presented

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023 A novel method for tracking structural changes in gels using widely accessible microcomputed tomography is presented and validated for various hydro‐, alco‐, and aerogels. The core idea of the method is to track positions of micrometer‐sized tracer particles entrapped in the gel and relate them to the density of the gel network.

Membrane formation by immersion precipitation : the role of a polymeric additive [PDF]
, 1992 In this thesis the immersion precipitation process is studied for systems in which two polymers are present.\ud In its basic form, immersion precipitation is carried out by immersing a thin film of a concentrated polymer solution into a bath of ...

A novel profluorescent dinitroxide for imaging polypropylene degradation [PDF]
, 2008 Free-radical processes underpin the thermo-oxidative degradation of polyolefins. Thus, to extend the lifetime of these polymers, stabilizers are generally added during processing to scavenge the free radicals formed as the polymer degrades.

Environmentally Friendly Polymers and Polymer Composites [PDF]
Materials, 2020 In the last decade, continuous research advances have been observed in the field of environmentally friendly polymers and polymer composites due to the dependence of polymers on fossil fuels and the sustainability issues related to plastic wastes. This research activity has become much more intense in the food packaging industry due to the high volume ...

Structure and Dynamics of Solvated Polymers near a Silica Surface: On the Different Roles Played by Solvent [PDF]
, 2018 Whereas it is experimentally known that the inclusion of nanoparticles in hydrogels can lead to a mechanical reinforcement, a detailed molecular understanding of the adhesion mechanism is still lacking.

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2005 Proteins, chain molecules of amino acids, behave in ways which are similar to each other yet quite distinct from standard compact polymers. We demonstrate that the Flory theorem, derived for polymer melts, holds for compact protein native state structures and is not incompatible with the existence of structured building blocks such as α helices and β ...
