Spiropyran-based dynamic materials.
In the past few years, spiropyran has emerged as the molecule-of-choice for the construction of novel dynamic materials. This unique molecular switch undergoes structural isomerisation in response to a variety of orthogonal stimuli, e.g. light, temperature, metal ions, redox potential, and mechanical stress. Incorporation of this switch onto macromolecular supports or inorganic scaffolds allows...
متن کاملA general multi-scale optimisation strategy for the optimisation of variable stiffness composites
The present paper focuses on the development of a multiscale optimisation strategy for the optimisation of variable angle stiffness laminates. The main goal consists in proving that it is possible to design structures having complex shapes made of variable stiffness composites by taking into account, from the early stages of the design process, the constraints linked to the manufacturing process.
متن کاملPREDICTING THE STIFFNESS OF BIAXIAL BRAIDED FIBER COMPOSITES BY INCORPORATION OF CARBON NANO FIBER
In this study, carbon nano fibers (CNFs) were mixed into epoxy resin through a magnetic stirrer and again mixed using ultra sonicator. Using hand layup technique, biaxial braided fiber composites were prepared with unfilled, 0.2, 0.5 and 1 wt% CNF. Tensile test and shear test was performed to identify the tensile strength and shear strength of the composites. Fractured surface of the tensile sp...
متن کاملComparing different methods of activating the variable stiffness function of a pediatric variable stiffness colonoscope.
BACKGROUND Previous studies on variable stiffness colonoscopes showed mixed results. Different methods of activating the variable stiffness function were used and might explain part of the controversy. To determine the most efficient way of activating the variable stiffness function, this study compared 3 methods (no activation, regular activation, activation on an as-needed basis) using 1 sing...
