Environmental Effects on Mechanical Properties of Glass/Epoxy and Fiber Metal Laminates, Part I: Hygrothermal Aging

In this article, the effect of hygrothermal aging on mechanical properties of fiber metal laminates (FMLs) and E-glass/epoxy (GE) composites is investigated. First, FML and GE specimens were built using wet lay-up technique under vacuum pressure. Hygrothermal aging simulation was then carried out on both specimen types in distilled water at a constant temperature of 90 °C for 5 weeks. The resul...

Viscous Conservation Laws, Part I: Scalar Laws

Viscous conservation laws are the basic models for the dissipative phenomena. We aim at a systematic presentation of the basic ideas for the quantitative study of the nonlinear waves for viscous conservation laws. The present paper concentrates on the scalar laws; an upcoming Part II will deal with the systems. The basic ideas for scalar viscous conservation laws originated from two sources: th...

Environmental Justice

Nature is reacting to the activities of modern society in unique and largely unexpected ways. The spread of acidified rain to every continent, a worldwide decline of forested lands, and the ubiquitous presence of persistent organic pollutants due to industrial experiments in biochemistry suggest that the contemporary naturesociety relation includes phenomena unlike any that were previously know...
