Abstract Microfluidics for most bio-related diagnostic applications typically requires single usage disposable chips to avoid bio-fouling and cross-contamination. Individual piece-wise manufacturing of polymeric microfluidic devices has been widely employe ...
The Steel Slit Panel Frame (SSPF) system is a new Seismic Force-Resisting System (SFRS) intended for areas of high seismicity. The main components in an SSPF are: steel beams and columns, and Steel Slit Panels (SSPs). SSPs are steel plates with rows of ver ...
The microstructural evolution of deformed 304L stainless steel during static recrystallization and grain growth was characterized by EBSD within an SEM chamber, which enabled microstructural and crystallographic information to be determined. The experiment ...
Punching shear reinforcement is increasingly used in flat slabs as an effective solution to increase their strength and deformation capacity. Several punching shear reinforcing systems have been developed in the past, such as studs, stirrups or bent-up bar ...
We investigate numerically the effect of a finite metal film thickness on the propagation characteristics of the channel plasmon polariton (CPP) and wedge plasmon polariton (WPP) modes, both in a symmetric and asymmetric environment. We observe that decrea ...
Single panel processing of polymeric microfluidic devices has been widely researched in recent years. However, suitable high throughput roll-to-roll replication methods are still limited. Taking cue from the conventional hot embossing process and roll-to-r ...
Microcellular aluminium can be produced by a process known as replication; this involves the infiltration of a packed bed of NaCl particles which are subsequently leached after metal solidification. The resulting material features a uniform distribution of ...
We present a family of high-order accurate thin layer approximations for time-domain electromagnetics. The thin layer approximations are valid for metal backed coatings of general isotropic materials and certain classes of anisotropic materials on smooth c ...
Continuous hot-dip galvanization is a process during which steel sheets are coated with a layer of Zn-Al alloy to protect them against corrosion. As the name indicates, this is achieved by dipping the preheated sheet into a bath of molten alloy. The sheet ...
The Steel Slit Panel Frame (SSPF) system is a new Lateral Force Resisting System (LFRS) intended for zones of high seismicity. Its main components are: steel beams and columns simply connected, and steel slit panels (SSPs) which provide the strength, later ...
