The effects of gas compression and Poisson's ratio on the compressive stress-strain curves of closed cell foams have been analysed. The contributions of hardening, polymer viscoelasticity, and gas escape on creep are examined. The foam diffusivity for air was predicted from the polymer permeability and the foam densit…

The Reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) modelling technique produces a structural model which is only constrained to agree with the available experimental data. For simple disordered systems good, unbiased structural descriptions are produced in this way. However, in general, a good fit to the data is merely a necessary, not a…

The propylethylenediamine moiety was anchored on silica in acid medium by using sol−gel methodology. A sequence of reactions was carried out with glutaraldehyde followed by ethylenediamine in order to increase the organic chain pendant groups covalently bonded to the inorganic support. All synthesized silicas were cha…

The elastic constants of the icosahedral boron crystals have been studied by the formulation of Born and Huang. First of all, a technique of symmetry decomposition has been developed for general crystals possessing molecular units in order to see the relaxation mechanism by the internal shift. It is proven that if a l…

Collagens, in addition to their structural role in the extracellular matrix, possess a number of functional binding domains. In this study, the binding to collagen of a monoclonal antibody is used as a model to define the molecular features involved in triple-helix interactions with other proteins. Here we report the…
