Mechanical properties of additively manufactured kraft paper lattices and paper-epoxy interpenetrating phase composites for polymer foam replacement by Lim, Guo Yao, Kuek, Ryan Jian Xing, Teo, Javen, Seetoh, Ian Peiyuan, Lai, Chang Quan

“…It was postulated that these failure modes minimized shear stresses between the sheets and were, therefore, preferred. …”

Structure-activity relationships of photo-activated soft tissue Adhesive by Wicaksono, Gautama

“…Finally, to demonstrate potential applications, the proposed CaproGlu bioadhesive is mixed with osseointegrative additive to form a bone cement biocomposite using a model PMMA pin that allows biocomposite curing through a transparent light guide, with resulting lap shear strength up to 40 kPa. Overall, this diazirine-based adhesive system demonstrates a novelty in adhesive design where excellent tunability in material properties can be achieved by modifying composition (adding liquid polymer or solid particles) and light activation parameters (power, wavelength) with direct application towards soft and hard tissue adhesion.…”

Mechanical behaviors of individual core-shell microspheres and their polymeric composites under different strain rates by Zhang, Xin

“…The core material may also influence the properties of core-shell structure. Since Shear thickening fluid (STF) can transfer from liquid state to solid state during impact, it can diversify the application of core-shell microspheres. …”

Ultrafast dynamics in quantum materials probed by time-and-momentum-resolved techniques by Su, Yifan

“…In this part of the thesis, I will introduce a new pathway for launching coherent acoustic phonons: magnetostriction, and discuss the spin-mediated shear oscillator enabled by this mechanism in van der Waals antiferromagnet. …”

Synthesis of epoxidized poly(ester carbonate)-b-polyimide-b-poly(ester carbonate) : reactive single-walled carbon nanotube dispersants enable synergistic reinforcement around multi... by Liu, Bo, Liu, Chengyin, De Luca, Hugo G., Raman Pillai, Suresh Kumar, Anthony, David B., Li, Jianghua, Bismarck, Alexander, Shaffer, Milo S. P., Chan-Park, Mary Bee Eng

“…The ultimate interfacial shear strength between the TB3-dispersed SWNT-epoxy matrix and the fuzzy carbon fibers (i.e., fibers having carbon nanotubes grown on them) measured via single fiber pull-out tests was 100 MPa, which was ca. 11% improvement over the baseline unsized carbon fiber in neat epoxy. …”

Nonequilibrium hyperuniform fluids by Lei, Yusheng

“…The first one is the systems stemmed from random organization (RO) dynamics, which is a model originally proposed to describe the chaotic particle motion in sheared non-Brownian suspensions. The subsequent one is the hyperuniform systems found in active particle systems, including hyperuniform reactive particle fluids and the chiral active brownian systems and biological algae systems, etc. …”

Smart material based on magnetorheological elastomer and its 3D printing by Bastola, Anil K.

“…The 3D printability of different materials has been studied by measuring their rheological properties and it was found that the highly shear thinning, and thixotropic properties are important for 3D printability. …”

Development of schlieren-image based flow diagnostics and analysis for supersonic jet flows by Lim, Desmond Haoxiang

“…When compared against PIV results, the much higher spatial and temporal resolution of SIVOF resulted in sharper and clearer vortical structures that can be tracked across several time-resolved frames. An embedded shear layer resulting from subsonic flow downstream of a 0.9 mm diameter Mach disk was also observed, which is testament to the high-fidelity flow field offered by SIVOF. …”
