Particle reinforced metal matrix composites are manufactured by high-pressure infiltration. These composites contain roughly 50% by volume of discrete alumina inclusions dispersed homogeneously in a continuous aluminium-based matrix. Three matrices, namely ...
Hot tearing is one of the most severe defects observed in castings, e.g. in billets or sheet ingots of aluminum alloys produced by DC casting. It is due to both tensile strains and a lack of interdendritic feeding in the mushy zone. In order to predict thi ...
The earliest ideas of the polaron recognized that the coupling of an electron to ionic vibrations would affect its apparent mass and could effectively immobilize the carrier (self-trapping). We discuss how these basic ideas have been generalized to recogni ...
The complex mechanical modulus of polymer and polymer based composite materials showed a frequency-dependent behaviour during glass transition relaxation, which was historically modelled by the Arrhenius equation. However, this might not be true in a broad ...
Thermal strain sensitivity of the dielectric property was investigated for (111)-textured polycrystalline Bi-Zn-Nb-O films. Cubic pyrochlore films with similar crystallinity and the degree of the orientation were obtained on various substrates, and their 1 ...
A nanomosaic network of metallic nanoparticles for the detection of ultralow concentrations of proteins is reported, which uses two planar microelectrodes embedded in a microchip that permit generation of capacitive coupling to the nanomosaic system withou ...
Increasing interest in specific applications in the field of micro- and nano-electromechanical systems (MEMS and NEMS) has raised the request for new functional polymeric materials. Epoxy based photoresists are being broadly used for the fabrication of mic ...
The directed assembly of nanoparticles and nanoscale materials onto specific locations of a surface is one of the major challenges in nanotechnology. Here we present a simple and scalable method and model for the assembly of nanoparticles in between electr ...
We here present an evaluation of the carrier performance of nanoparticles that are biofunctional, i.e. derivatized to provide a controlled biological activity, and environmentally responsive, since they respond to the presence of oxidants. In particular, w ...
The organic polymers incorporating inorganic nanoparticles can result in material possessing with unique size-dependent properties, such as mechanical, optical, electrical, thermal and magnetic, that can be istinctively conveyed into the composite by the s ...
