We study the changes in the conformations of brushes upon the addition of crosslinks between the chains using the bond fluctuation model. The Flory-Rehner model applied to uniaxially swollen networks predicts a collapse for large degrees of crosslinking q proportional to q(-1∕3) in disagreement with our simulation dat…

Experimental bird strike tests were conducted in which a 2.6-kg dead chicken was projected at a speed of 500 km/h to hit a raised aerodynamic brake wing. The brake wing was fabricated with a sandwich of composite material as its skin and polymethacrylimide foam as its core. Pre-test numerical analyses of bird strikes…
