Compressibility of air in fibrous materials

Transverse Thermoelectricity in Fibrous Composite Materials

Transverse thermoelectric elements have the potential to decouple the electric current and the heat flow, which could lead to new designs of thermoelectric devices. While many theoretical and experimental studies of transverse thermoelectricity have focused on layered structures, this work examines composite materials with aligned fibrous inclusions. A simplified mathematical model was derived ...

Computational homogenization of fibrous piezoelectric materials

Flexible piezoelectric devices made of polymeric materials are widely used for microand nanoelectro-mechanical systems. In particular, numerous recent applications concern energy harvesting. Due to the importance of computational modeling to understand the influence that microscale geometry and constitutive variables exert on the macroscopic behavior, a numerical approach is developed here for ...
