NanocelluloseLa nanocellulose est une nanostructure de cellulose. Elle existe sous trois formes : nanofibre de cellulose ou nanofibrilles de cellulose ou cellulose nano-fibrillée (NFC / CNF) aussi appelée cellulose micro-fibrillée ou microfibrille de cellulose (CMF / MFC), obtenue par traitement mécanique ; nanocellulose cristalline ou nanocristaux de cellulose (NCC) aussi appelée cellulose nanocristalline (CNC) et encore nanocellulose en ou nanoen de cellulose (CNW / NCW), produite par procédé chimique ; nanocellulose bactérienne (BNC), synthétisée par des bactéries.
Wear OSWear OS (anciennement Android Wear) est une version du système d'exploitation mobile Android de Google spécialement conçue pour faire fonctionner les technologies portables. Son lancement est annoncé le par Sundar Pichai, en collaboration avec les constructeurs Asus, Broadcom, Fossil, HTC, Intel, LG, MediaTek, Imagination Technologies, Motorola, Qualcomm et Samsung. En parallèle, trois premiers modèles de montres intelligentes fonctionnant sur le nouveau système d'exploitation sont annoncés : la Moto 360, la Samsung Gear live et la LG G watch.
Porous mediumIn materials science, a porous medium or a porous material is a material containing pores (voids). The skeletal portion of the material is often called the "matrix" or "frame". The pores are typically filled with a fluid (liquid or gas). The skeletal material is usually a solid, but structures like foams are often also usefully analyzed using concept of porous media. A porous medium is most often characterised by its porosity. Other properties of the medium (e.g.
Structural steelStructural steel is a category of steel used for making construction materials in a variety of shapes. Many structural steel shapes take the form of an elongated beam having a of a specific cross section. Structural steel shapes, sizes, chemical composition, mechanical properties such as strengths, storage practices, etc., are regulated by standards in most industrialized countries. Most structural steel shapes, such as -beams, have high second moments of area, which means they are very stiff in respect to their cross-sectional area and thus can support a high load without excessive sagging.
