Abstract: Single domain YBCO bulk superconductors were prepared using a conventional top-seeded melt growth technique. Artificial holes were introduced to the green sample prior to thermal processing ...

Macrophages are early responders to biomaterial interfaces, but the specific role of surface roughness in regulating macrophage inflammatory phenotypes remains difficult to distinguish from the ...

Aim The present in vitro study aimed to evaluate the bond strength of a bulk fill composite on dentin surfaces prepared with the Er: YAG laser. Methods Twenty-four permanent third molars were selected ...

Abstract: Solder joints in electronic packages are frequently exposed to thermal cycling environments where temperature variations occur from very low to high temperature. These exposures can occur in ...

Google group: https://groups.google.com/g/elatools?pli=1 We introduce a computational method and a user-friendly code with a terminal-based graphical user interface ...

Materials innovation is one of the key drivers of major technological breakthroughs. The discovery of lithium cobalt oxide in the 1980s laid the groundwork for today’s lithium-ion battery technology.

The mechanical properties of electrochemically deposited Li whiskers critically determine the failure mechanisms of Li metal batteries, yet they remain elusive at the single-whisker level. Here, the ...

Protein-based hydrogels hold a high content of water in their three-dimensional (3D) network structure and exhibit innate biological activities as well as soft tissue-like mechanical properties, ...

Soft, slippery surfaces have gained increasing attention because of their wide range of potential applications, for example in biomaterials, self-cleaning, antifouling, liquid collection, and more.

A materials discovery algorithm geared towards exploring high performance candidates in new chemical spaces using composition-only. Bulk modulus values overlaid on DensMAP densities (cropped). Baird, ...

Nanoindentation is a measurement technique which is important in measuring Young’s modulus and hardness in thin films and any other situations involving the measurement of limited amounts of material.
