Terephthalic acid functionalization of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) “paper” enhances the tensile strength and fracture toughness by ≈70% and ≈200%, respectively, by promoting a “slip-and-stick” fracture pathway within the material. It is proposed that this dynamic fracture mechanism arises from interactions between ca…

We describe full wave simulation results for a compact, novel deflecting structure operating around 2 GHz. The structure consists of a pair of elliptical complementary split-ring resonators (CSRRs) etched into a copper rectangular waveguide along with outer rectangular cavities to maintain the vacuum. Our design utili…

Many three-dimensional constitutive models have been proposed to enhance the analysis and design of shape memory alloy (SMA) structural components. Phenomenological models are desirable for this purpose since they describe macroscopic responses using internal variables to govern the homogenized material response. Beca…

The excited-state structure of impurity-trapped excitons are measured in a multisite system. We use a two-color (UV-IR) pulsed photoluminescence enhancement technique, which probes the interlevel transitions and dynamics of impurity-trapped excitons in doped insulating phosphor materials. The technique is applied to N…

The influence of poling temperature (Tp) on d33 and of (Na0.52K0.4425Li0.0375)(Nb0.86Ta0.06Sb0.08)O3 ceramics is investigated. No notable stress is induced as there is not apparent phase transition on cooling when the ceramics are poled below orthorhombic-tetragonal phase transition temperature (To–t). However, stress…

Studies of skin wound healing in crocodilians are necessary given the frequent occurrence of cannibalism in intensive farming systems. Air temperature affects tissue recovery because crocodilians are ectothermic. Therefore, the kinetics of skin wound healing in Caiman yacare were examined at temperatures of 33°C and 2…

We report magnetic-field-dependent small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments on a Nd2Fe14B/Fe3B nanocomposite. For the two scattering geometries where the applied magnetic field is either perpendicular or parallel to the incoming neutron beam, we have independently analyzed the field-dependent SANS data in ter…

We present here evidence for the off-centering of Bi3+ symmetrically distributed along the six ⟨100⟩ directions of a pseudocubic composition (Ba0.70Bi0.30)(Ti0.70Fe0.30)O3 at the electron density distribution level. We also calculate the strength of covalent bonding between the oxygen (O2−) anions with A-site (Ba2+/Bi…
