Autogenous Shrinkage Revisited [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In the 1990s it became generally accepted in the scientific community that autogenous shrinkage is a major reason for cracking observed during hardening of high-performance concrete [1, 2]. Within this decade suitable measurement techniques to identify autogenous deformation were developed, a large amount of scientific studies on the phenomenon were ...

Chitin‐Derived Carbon‐Metal Functional Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Functional carbon materials are synthesized from combination of biopolymer (chitin) and iron precursors. The resultant material exhibits superior surface area and adsorptive properties compared to carbon materials synthesized directly from pure chitin.

2D Skeletal Muscle Thin Film Actuators Enhance Efficiency of Biohybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2D skeletal muscle thin film actuators generate millinewton‐scale forces and millimeter‐scale strokes while remaining functional for over 30 days. Their force density is 20‐fold higher than 3D skeletal muscle actuators, enabling multi‐fin robots with tunable speed and multidirectional steering.

An Integrated Oxygen‐Supplying Device and Predictive Multiphysics Model for Extended Ambient Transport of Insulin‐Producing Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cell therapies typically rely on cold‐chain logistics and cryopreservation, limiting access and compromising cell quality. Here, a dual‐chamber device separates an oxygen‐supplying chamber from a hyaluronic acid cargo chamber, sustaining oxygen delivery for over 70 h and enabling ambient‐temperature shipment.

Shrinkage of clay soils - statistical correlation with other soil properties

open access: yes, 1974
The hypothesis that the shrinkage of soils is greater when expansible minerals are dominant was tested with 63 soils containing between 40 and 64% clay.

SHrinkage Covariance Estimation Incorporating Prior Biological Knowledge with Applications to High-Dimensional Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In ``-omic data'' analysis, information on the structure of covariates are broadly available either from public databases describing gene regulation processes and functional groups such as the Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG), or from ...

Modelagem da retração por secagem de concretos produzidos com agregados reciclados

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
A preocupação com a conservação dos recursos não renováveis tem levado o meio acadêmico a pesquisar sobre a utilização dos agregados reciclados na produção de concretos. A retração por secagem do concreto é um fenômeno que está intimamente ligado à perda

ATP‐Mediated Bidirectional Communication Between Natural and Artificial Cells for Controlled Bioreactions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Establishment of bidirectional communication behavior between natural and artificial cells. The first type of communication from natural dendritic cells to artificial polymeric cells was achieved via ATP release after cell lysis. The released ATP was taken up via gated UV‐controlled permeability increase of the polymeric membrane for performing ...

Shrinkage of High-Performance Concrete

open access: yes, 1999
This paper outlines an experimental and numerical study on the effect of w/c, silica fume and age on shrinkage of High-Performance Concrete (HPC). Cylinders of 8 types of HPC were cast. Carbonation and water-losses were studied parallel.

Deciphering the Photopolymerization‐Induced Nanostructures and Interface Formation for Submicrometer Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work reveals the UV‐curing‐induced monomer‐rich domain, oligomer‐rich domain, and entangled oligomer domain. The cured submicron films in stressed state induce interlayer nano‐wrinkle structures during the deposition of the second layer. Stress‐free cured films in relaxed state form non‐diffusive, diffusive and semi‐diffusive interlayer ...
