(PLOS, 2015-07-01)Vibrissae are important components of the mammalian tactile sensory system and are used to detect vibrotactile stimuli in the environment. Pinnipeds have the largest and most highly innervated vibrissae among mammals, and ...

(2012-07-16)Cellulose whiskers (CWs) obtained from naturally occuring cellulose are nano-inclusions which show a lot of promise as mechanical reinforcements in polymers. Typically, a relatively high content is added to realize improvement ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Ultimate tensile and compressive strengths, corresponding moduli of elasticity, and compressive stress relaxation properties (relaxation time constants) of parboiled brown rice were investigated. Samples were prepared from ...
-
(2019-03-06)This study’s aim is to investigate manipulating the compression molding manufacturing process to influence morphology and mechanical properties of thick wall and tall advanced performance thermoplastic polymers, as well ...
-
(2022-07-25)Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys are attractive candidates for lightweight applications owing to their high specific mechanical properties. These properties make magnesium comparable to many polymers in terms of weight while ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)The structural analysis and the selection of the performance models are the two most important steps in pavement performance analysis and they significantly affect the prediction of pavement distress. The nonlinear elasticity ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)The traditional bulk elastic modulus has been demonstrated to be unsuitable for a biophysical analysis of plant cell wall elasticity. Because cell walls consist of a polymer material, this study presents an alternative ...
-
(2019-11-01)Improving the strength, and the corrosion resistance of aluminum alloys simultaneously through aging treatment, and grain refinement is a challenge as these two properties are mutually exclusive. In this work, we investigated ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)A linear low density polyethylene, with 1-octene as the co-unit, forms a semicrystalline matrix when cooled from the melt. This matrix is composed of a spherulitic superstructure with a lamellar microstructure. The careful ...
