Implementing linear mixed effects models to enhance estimation of the dimensional stability of wood of Laurus nobilis L.

open access: yesForest Systems
Aim of study: The properties of wood of laurel (Laurus nobilis L.) have not yet been adequately described. For example, information on variables related to dimensional stability during drying (shrinkage) is lacking, even though this is a key factor ...

Adjustment of Coatings Morphology and Particle Distribution of Layered Silicates by Freeze‐Drying for Improved Gas Barriers

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Freeze‐drying of layered silicate is the key to get coatings with superior gas barrier. Freeze‐drying of layered silicates modified with dodecylamine (DDA) is a highly effective technique for the preparation of barrier pigments that significantly mitigate the permeation of oxygen, water vapor, and hydrogen through polymer films containing these ...

Comparative study of the influence of three types of fibre in the shrinkage of recycled mortar

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2018
Construction and demolition waste can be used as a substitution of natural aggregate in mortar and concrete elaboration. A poorer quality of recycled aggregates generally has negative impact on mortar properties.

Shrinkage Estimators in Online Experiments

open access: yes, 2019
We develop and analyze empirical Bayes Stein-type estimators for use in the estimation of causal effects in large-scale online experiments. While online experiments are generally thought to be distinguished by their large sample size, we focus on the ...

Micropleated Nanofibrous Filters for High‐Efficiency Submicron Aerosol Filtration: A Comparative Study with Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Gas Mask Filters

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents micropleated filters manufactured by needleless electrospinning. Nanofibers are deposited onto uniaxially pre‐stretched substrates that contract upon release, forming densely packed micropleats. This architecture increases effective surface area without enlarging the filter size, achieving quality factors comparable to those of ...

Internal curing of cement pastes by superabsorbent polymers studied by means of neutron radiography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Autogenous shrinkage is a problem in cementitious materials with a low water-to-binder ratio. When the internal relative humidity decreases due to the ongoing hydration reaction and selfdesiccation, autogenous shrinkage takes place if no external or ...

Skellam shrinkage: Wavelet-based intensity estimation for inhomogeneous Poisson data

open access: yes, 2009
The ubiquity of integrating detectors in imaging and other applications implies that a variety of real-world data are well modeled as Poisson random variables whose means are in turn proportional to an underlying vector-valued signal of interest. In this

Development and Preliminary In Vivo Study of 3D‐Printed Bioactive Glass Scaffolds with Trabecular Architecture

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports the fabrication of trabecular bioactive glass scaffolds (composition “1d”: 46.1SiO2‐28.7CaO‐8.8MgO‐6.2P2O5‐5.7CaF2‐4.5Na2O wt%) through vat photopolymerization and the relevant results from mechanical testing and in vivo implantation procedures in rabbit femora, showing great promise for bone tissue engineering applications.
