Self-healing systems having a design stimulated by the vertebrate spine.
This work describes the design of two self-healing systems comprising mm-sized beads connected by elastomeric threads. Axial compressive stress exerted by the thread, and capillary interactions between drops of molten solder pat-terned on the beads, lead to their self-assembly into linear rods; cooling the solder makes the rods rigid. We demonstrate
متن کاملBiomimetic Self-Healing.
Self-healing is a natural process common to all living organisms which provides increased longevity and the ability to adapt to changes in the environment. Inspired by this fitness-enhancing functionality, which was tuned by billions of years of evolution, scientists and engineers have been incorporating self-healing capabilities into synthetic materials. By mimicking mechanically triggered che...
متن کاملSelf-healing Polymers
Self-healing polymers are a new class of smart materials that have the capability to repair themselves when they are damaged without the need for detection or repair by manual intervention of any kind. Increasing demand for petroleum feed stocks used to produce polymer and the need for polymeric materials with improved performance in challenging applications continue to drive the need for mater...
متن کاملSelf-healing Deterministic Expanders
We present fully-distributed algorithms that construct and maintain deterministic expander networks (i.e., the expansion properties are deterministically guaranteed) in the presence of an adaptive adversary. To the best of our knowledge, these algorithms are the first distributed implementations of deterministic expanders that work even under an all-powerful adaptive adversary (that has unlimit...
متن کاملSelf-healing superamphiphobicity.
Biomimetic self-healing superamphiphobicity is reported on a rough alumina surface with a large number of nanopores that act as nanoreserviors for low surface energy materials that can consecutively release and heal the damaged surface.
