Textechno offers a portfolio of testing systems spanning single-fiber characterization, matrix adhesion and intermediate ...

Slate, characterized by its layered structure, exhibits mechanical properties predominantly influenced by structural planes. To investigate the mechanical behavior and failure modes of slate under ...

Abstract: In a previous paper, we introduced a flexible methodology for the design of dual-use waveform alphabets which are suitable for simultaneous use in radar and wireless communications. Here we ...

Polymers are often employed in engineering designs because of their ability to damp out shock and vibration. A material’s ability to elastically store energy is characterized by the storage modulus (E ...

Abstract: This paper focuses on the influence of the joint of hexagonal honeycomb structures on the in-plane equivalent elastic modulus and resilience ability. Firstly, a series of honeycomb samples ...

The structural integrity of cancellous bone, which is essential to skeletal load-bearing capacity, is governed chiefly by apparent density, trabecular architecture, and tissue material properties.

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

Mechanical deicing is a method to remove the ice on the pavement surface, and the ice strength directly affects the difficulty and effectiveness of the mechanical deicing. This paper aims to ...

Fat, brain, and liver tissue stiffen when squished. Although tissues are complex materials consisting of deformable, active cells within a biopolymer matrix, recent work has shown that a simple tissue ...
