Elastomeric Nanocomposite with Solvent‐Free, One Step, In Situ Shear Exfoliation of Graphite to Graphene

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This work presents a novel strategy for nanocomposite fabrication that imparts high shear and elongational forces, overcoming the interlayer van der Waals forces within bulk 2D materials and facilitating their exfoliation in elastomers. Additionally, the high shear forces promote effective nanoparticle dispersion and in situ bond formation, leading to ...

Analysis and Tuning of a Voice Assistant System for Dysfluent Speech [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Dysfluencies and variations in speech pronunciation can severely degrade speech recognition performance, and for many individuals with moderate-to-severe speech disorders, voice operated systems do not work. Current speech recognition systems are trained primarily with data from fluent speakers and as a consequence do not generalize well to speech ...
