Aluminum lamination was performed to improve the physical and mechanical properties of several wood-based composite panels. The panels were aluminum-laminated on two faces in a hot press at 689 kPa and 120 °C for 6 min. Four types of wood-based composites were used as cores, and aluminum 3003 alloy sheets were used for face laminations. Polyurethane adhesive ensured bonding strength between the...

The aim of this study was to understand the microscopic characteristics of the bamboo bonding interface with phenol formaldehyde resin modified with larch thanaka and urea (PTUF) and its effect on the shear strength of two-ply bamboo laminated lumber. Bleached and carbonized bamboo strips were used, and two assembly patterns (outer-to-outer and inner-to-inner) were adopted to make two-ply bambo...

We theoretically studied spin dependent electron transport perpendicular-to-plain (CPP) in magnetic laminated multilayered structures by using Kubo formalism. We took into account not only bulk scattering, but the interface resistance due to both specular and diffuse reflection and also spin conserving and spin-flip processes. It was shown that spin-flip scattering at interfaces substantially r...

Title of Thesis: MOLECULAR DYNAMICS SIMULATIONS OF LASER INDUCED SHOCK RESPONSE IN REACTIVE Ni/Al NANOLAMINATES Degree Candidate: Alexander Blacque Meissner Degree and Year: Master of Science, 2009 Thesis Directed by: Professor Michael Zachariah Departments of Mechanical Engineering and Chemistry To characterize the self-propagating, high-temperature exothermic alloying reactions of Ni/Al nanos...

A new nanosensor composed of laminated samarium borate and immobilized laccase was developed for phenol determination. The laminated samarium borate was synthesized by a mild solid-state-hydrothermal (S-S-H) method without any surfactant or Template. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the samp...

The polymer foil used for manufacturing of laminated glass members behaves in a viscoelastic manner with temperature dependance. This contribution aims at incorporating the time/temperature-dependent behavior of interlayer to our earlier elastic finite element model for laminated glass beams. The model is based on a refined beam theory: each layer behaves according to the finite-strain shear de...

The effect of protein composition and content on the characteristics and properties of laminated baked products has been studied for a long time. However, there are no flour quality parameters related to its suitability to produce yeast-leavened laminated salty baked products. The relationships among flour characteristics, laminated dough pieces and baked products were studied in order to estab...

been detected and their relations between the magnetic properties and the Mn-Mn interatomic distances and between the magnetic properties and the number of valence electrons have been investigated(17). Further studies have been carried out on the pseudo-ternary compounds Au1-xCuxMnSb(18), Pt1-xNixMnSb and Pt1-xCuxMnSb(19) which substituted mutually the first elements in AuMnSb and CuMnSb, PtMnS...
