Finite-Size Effects on Return Interval Distributions for Weakest-Link-Scaling Systems

, 2014
The Weibull distribution is a commonly used model for the strength of brittle materials and earthquake return intervals. Deviations from Weibull scaling, however, have been observed in earthquake return intervals and in the fracture strength of quasi ...

Thermal breakage of window glass in room fires conditions - Analysis of some important parameters [PDF]

, 1997
In a compartment fire, the breakage and possible fallout of a window glass has a significant impact on the fire dynamics. The thermal breakage of glass depends on various parameters such as glass type, edge shading, edges conditions and constraints on ...

Microstructure and Weibull distribution of rupture strength of clay-talc ceramics

Cerâmica
The mechanical properties of clay-talc ceramics containing 0 to 10 wt% of talc fired at 1100 °C were obtained by flexural measurements. With the average value of flexural strength of 23.1 MPa, the sample with 5 wt% of talc (G5) was the strongest and it ...

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

Advanced 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 ...

Lattice Structures for Bone Replacement: The Intersection of Bone Biomechanics, Lattice Design, and Additive Manufacturing

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review outlines how understanding bone's biology, hierarchical architecture, and mechanical anisotropy informs the design of lattice structures that replicate bone morphology and mechanical behavior. Additive manufacturing enables the fabrication of orthopedic implants that incorporate such structures using a range of engineering materials ...

Effect of nepheline syenite particle size on diametrical compression strength and reliability of extruded ceramic Raschig rings used in packed towers

Boletín de la Sociedad Española de Cerámica y Vidrio, 2013
In order to understand the effect of nepheline syenite particle size on physico-chemical properties of ceramic Raschig rings, the fluxing agent was grinded at different milling times. The compositions were prepared by blending the illitic-kaolinitic clay

Free‐Volume Regulation Enables Significantly Enhanced Electrical Breakdown via Short‐Chain Molecular Spatial‐Positioning Intercalation into Poly(vinylidene fluoride)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An innovative molecular spatial‐positioning shimming strategy is developed to optimize the electrical properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF). By intercalating polyethylene wax (PE wax) short‐chain molecules into PVDF's free volume, the film achieves a significantly enhanced energy density of 32.67 J cm−3.
