Abstract A detonating explosive interacting with a deformable structure is a highly transient and non-linear event. In field blast trials of military vehicles, a standard procedure is often followed in order to reduce the uncertainties and increase the quality of the test. If the explosive is buried in the ground, the…

Strontium hexaferrite (SrFe12O19) particles were synthesised using the modified chemical coprecipitation method. The results indicated that a single strontium hexaferrite phase formed at low annealing temperature 800°C in the presence of surfactant or by oxalic acid addition. Sonochemical assisted coprecipitation rout…

Abstract The aim of this work was to characterize the fracture behavior of polyamide 6 (PA6) and PA6 reinforced with clay (organically modified montmorillonite) [PA6/OMMT] at different temperatures and under higher loading rate. Pure PA6 and PA6 with different amounts and two types of OMMT were investigated. The struc…

Here we report on the metal–semiconductor junction characteristics of a semiconducting ZnO nanowire grown directly on a metallic graphene film. The extracted specific contact resistivity of the graphene–ZnO nanowire contact (1.5 × 10−5 Ω·cm2) is comparable to that reported for Al–ZnO contacts. Based on the assumption…

In this paper we report on bubble growth rates and on the statistics of bubble topology for the coarsening of a dry foam contained in the narrow gap between two hemispheres. By contrast with coarsening in flat space, where six-sided bubbles neither grow nor shrink, we observe that six-sided bubbles grow with time at a…

The synthesis and thermoluminescent characteristics of dysprosium-doped MgB4O7 are analyzed. The phosphor at different concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 mol%) of the dopant was prepared by the solution-assisted method. The magnesium borate compound was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The annealing and dopant con…

Various 2-D patterns of copper sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO 4 ·5H 2 O) were spontaneously formed through crystal growth in a thin gelatin matrix on a glass plate. The form of the grown crystal changes from polyhedrons to irregularly branching morphologies with increasing the polymer density in the matrix. Characteristic…

Abstract The high electrically conductive carboxyl‐functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (COOH‐MWCNTs) were used to combine with nonconducting polyimide (PI) to generate a PI/COOH‐MWCNTs membrane. PI served as a matrix to entrap COOH‐MWCNTs and hemoglobin (Hb). COOH‐MWCNTs can improve the conductivity of the com…

Abstract Fundamental shortcomings of ferroelectrics (FEs) are low induced strain and high electric field often required for practical application in actuation, sensors, and acoustics. Although domain engineered FE single crystals deliver an order of magnitude improvement, fatigue remains another drawback in achieving…

Flow in unsaturated porous media or in engineered microfluidic systems is dominated by capillary and viscous forces. Consequently, flow regimes may differ markedly from conventional flows, reflecting strong interfacial influences on small bodies of flowing liquids. In this work, we visualized liquid transport patterns…
