The off-axis constant fatigue life diagrams for a unidirectional carbon/epoxy laminate in different fiber orientations are identified over the whole range of stress ratio. The experimental results show that the off-axis constant fatigue life diagram plotted in the plane of alternating and mean stresses tends to shrink…

BACKGROUND: Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs) are a promising nanoplatform for contrast-enhanced MRI. Recently, magnetic particle imaging (MPI) was introduced as a new imaging modality, which is able to directly visualize magnetic particles and could serve as a more sensitive and quantitative alternative to MRI. However…

This paper presents the behaviors of a liquid bridge when being compressed and stretched in a quasi-static fashion between two solid surfaces that have contact angle hysteresis (CAH). A theoretical model is developed to obtain the profiles of the liquid bridge given a specific separation between the surfaces. Differen…

An optimum nanoprecipitation technique for gelatin nanoparticles is established, based on aqueous gelatin solution and ethanolic solution containing stabilizer. Crosslinking with glutaraldehyde results in stable gelatine nanoparticles. Several factors such as the surfactant concentration, type of surfactant, type of n…

Reference region (RR) approaches (RRAs) for positron emission tomography (PET) brain studies aim to obtain full quantification without arterial input function (IF) sampling, an invasive and costly procedure. Although they need a reliable RR and are only able to estimate the nondisplaceable binding potential (BPND), RR…

Shaping up your clusters: Two supramolecular clusters of multiple lanthanide helicates have been synthesized. Cluster structure is controlled by the choice of anion, with tetrahedral ClO4− producing larger circular helicates, and trigonal-planar NO3− leading to a compact quadruple-stranded helicate (see picture).

We study theoretically the onset of shear banding in the three most common time-dependent rheological protocols: step stress, finite strain ramp (a limit of which gives a step strain), and shear startup. By means of a linear stability analysis we provide a fluid-universal criterion for the onset of banding for each pr…
