Thermomechanical properties and shape-memory behavior of bisphenol a diacrylate-based shape-memory polymers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A series of acrylate-based shape-memory materials are synthesized from bisphenol A diacrylate monomers as crosslinking agents. Networks are synthesized by keeping constant the content of bisphenol A-based crosslinking agent and systematically varying the

Crowding for Confinement: Reversible Isomerization of First-Generation Donor-Acceptor Stenhouse Adduct Derivatives in Water Modulated by Thermoresponsive Dendritic Macromolecules

open access: yesMolecules
Mimicking nature, the reversible isomerization of hydrophobic dyes in aqueous solutions is appealing for bio-applications. Here, we report on the reversible isomerization of first-generation solvatochromic donor-acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASAs) in ...

Combined electronic nose and tongue for a flavour sensing system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We present a novel, smart sensing system developed for the flavour analysis of liquids. The system comprises both a so-called "electronic tongue" based on shear horizontal surface acoustic wave (SH-SAW) sensors analysing the liquid phase and a so-called "

Bistable Mechanisms 3D Printing for Mechanically Programmable Vibration Control

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a 3D‐printed bistable mechanism integrated into tuned mass dampers (TMDs) for mechanically adaptive passive vibration suppression. Through optimized geometry, the bistable design provides adaptable vibration reduction across a broad range of scenarios, achieving effective vibration mitigation without complex controls or external ...
