An Essentially Semi-Rigid Class of Modules [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, 1984
The author gives an easy argument for finding a proper class \({\mathcal C}\) of essentially semi-rigid modules over a complete discrete valuation ring R. Recall two definitions: \({\mathcal C}\) is a proper class if \({\mathcal C}\) is not a set.

Melt Grafting of Geometry‐Tailored Voltage Stabilizers for High‐Performance Polypropylene Insulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable one‐step melt grafting strategy is developed to enhance the dielectric properties of isotactic polypropylene by covalently incorporating thermally stable aromatic voltage stabilizers. This solvent‐free approach improves volume resistivity and DC breakdown strength through deep trap formation and charge localization, offering a sustainable ...

Semi-rigid brace and taping decrease variability of the ankle joint position sense

open access: yesMotriz: Revista de Educacao Fisica, 2014
The present study investigated the effect of taping and the semi-rigid ankle brace on ankle joint position sense. Sixteen healthy women (20.8 ± 2.3 years old) actively placed the ankle in a target position. The experimental conditions were: 1) wearing no

Articulated Pose Estimation Using Hierarchical Exemplar-Based Models

open access: yes, 2015
Exemplar-based models have achieved great success on localizing the parts of semi-rigid objects. However, their efficacy on highly articulated objects such as humans is yet to be explored.

Robust and Reversible Thermofluorescence in Solvent‐Free Thermoplastic Polyurethane Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Thermofluorescent polymer composites with high‐contrast optical outputs are prepared by solvent‐free blending of indenoquinacridone dye into a thermoplastic polyurethane matrix. The temperature‐dependent fluorescence originates from aggregation–dissociation of the dye molecules, regulated by competing hydrogen bonds from the polymer matrix.

Creep Evaluation of (Orthotic) Cast Materials During Simulated Clubfoot Correction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Ponseti method is a widely accepted and highly successful conservative treatment of pediatric clubfoot that relies on weekly manipulations and cast applications.

Viscoelasticity‐Induced Controllable Periodic Meso‐Textures of Liquid Crystal Polymers in Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Viscoelasticity‐driven instabilities are harnessed to create tunable, periodic textures in 3D‐printed liquid crystalline polymers. This study illustrates how processing parameters control these spontaneous meso‐scale patterns. These unique structural architectures unlock new possibilities for functional devices, ranging from photonic components to ...

Study on the Effect of Crack Density and Micro-Cracking Block Size of In Situ Softening Semi-Rigid Base

open access: yesBuildings
Reflection cracking in semi-rigid bases is a widespread distress that undermines highway safety. Priority should be given to this issue to ensure the normal performance of large-scale semi-rigid base asphalt pavements that have reached the end of their ...
