Abstract Next to the intended increase of the impact toughness, impact modification of polycarbonate generally results in an unwanted decrease in yield stress and time‐to‐failure under constant stress. It is demonstrated that this loss in strength can be fully compensated for by an annealing treatment, or by increasin…

We consider cloaking by a coated cylindrical system using plasmonic resonance, and extend previous quasistatic treatments to include the effect of finite wavelength. We show that a probe cylinder can still be cloaked at finite wavelengths, but the cloaking cylinder develops a nonzero scattering cross section. We show…

In this study, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) blends, with PLA/PVA mass ratios of 100/0, 90/10, 80/20, 70/30, 60/40, 50/50, and 40/60, were prepared by means of the melt blending method. The result of torque measurements and thermal gravimtric analysis tests showed that the addition of PLA can d…

We demonstrate a promising route to fabricate large scale hexagonally patterned, vertically aligned ZnO nanorod arrays with small diameter. By adding 3-mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane (MPTES) molecules as a connection between catalyst and substrate the large size dispersion resulting from the removal of catalyst pattern…

In this paper, we introduce a generalized concept of field-transforming metamaterials, which perform field transformations defined as linear relations between the original and transformed fields. These artificial media change the fields in a prescribed fashion in the volume occupied by the medium. We show what electro…

The use of woven betel palm and kenaf lignocellulosic fibers as a reinforcing phase in unsaturated polyester was reported. The morphology, physical properties, and mechanical properties of the natural fibers and resulting woven composites were evaluated. Kenaf fibers exhibit higher tensile properties than betel palm f…

The magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effects in NaZn 13 -type La 1− x Pr x Fe 10.7 Co 0.8 Si 1.5 compounds have been investigated. Partially replacing La with Pr leads to a small reduction in the Curie temperature T C due to the lattice contraction, but the values of T C for La 1− x Pr x Fe 10.7 Co 0.8 Si 1.5 ar…

In this paper, we present the design of an electromagnetic cloaking device working for both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarizations. The theoretical approach to cloaking used here is inspired by the one presented by Alù and Engheta (2005 Phys. Rev. E 72 016623) for TM polarization. The case…

In an attempt to identify novel magnetic refrigerant materials, we have studied the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties in RNi compounds with R = Gd, Ho and Er. GdNi is a simple ferromagnet with a collinear structure in contrast to HoNi and ErNi, in which the moments of rare earth sublattice are arranged non-collin…

Correlations between spall damage and local microstructure were investigated in multicrystalline copper samples via impact tests conducted with laser-driven plates at low pressures (2—6 GPa). The copper samples had a large grain size as compared to the thickness, which was either 200 or 1000 μm, to isolate the effects…

Starting from the Luneberg lens index profile, we apply the transformation design method to the problem of far-field imaging of (infinitely) distant objects. This analysis yields a single element lens with a planar image surface, zero aberrations of all orders, zero F-number and (in some cases) constant aperture for a…

Solutions for the fields in a coated cylinder where the core radius is bigger than the shell radius are seemingly unphysical, but can be given a physical meaning if one transforms to an equivalent problem by unfolding the geometry. In particular, the unfolded material can act as an impedance matched hyperlens, and as…
