in this study, behavior of pin-loaded glass fiber reinforced with polyethylene laminated composites with different stacking sequence and different dimensions has been observed experimentally and stress analysis was performed using ansys software. the aim is to investigate stresses, failure strength and failure mode of composite laminates containing a pin loaded hole when the material exhibits l...

Ti3AlC2 three-layered ceramics-reinforced copper matrix composites show not only the strength of but also better wear resistance, all while preserving its conductive property and, ultimately, reducing cost preparation. However, decomposition in Cu-Ti3AlC2 mainly occurs due to severe interdiffusion Al and Cu elements from particle-grain boundaries, leading formation TiCx. This work explored a pr...

Cellulose-based Ni/Cr (Ni/Cr-C) and cellulose-based Zn/Cr (Zn/Cr-C) composite materials have been successfully carried out, which is indicated by the XRD, FTIR, BET analysis. Layered double hydroxide (Ni/Cr-LDH) increased surface area from 0.128 m2/g to 2.207 in Ni/Cr-C composites, layered (Zn/Cr-LDH) also 0.133 3.714 Zn/Cr-C composites. The pHpzc of material this study pH 5.94-8.43, while opti...

The article presents the results of studying impact response ceramic-metal composites ZrO 2 /Ti and /Al with non-rigid fixing layers. It is shown that, as energy dissipates from layer to layer, there takes place an increase in dispersion structure metal foils ceramic plates. have a higher strength, while strength layered differs monolithic ceramics only scarcely. was regardless distance between...

In this work is presented a general architecture for a multi physical agent network system based on the coordination and the behaviour management. The system is organised in a hierarchical structure where are distinguished the individual agent actions and the collective ones linked to the whole agent network. Individual actions are also organised in a hybrid layered system that take advantages ...

Developing new methods to prepare pseudocapacitive materials with high pseudocapacitance/electronic conductivity is of great interest for hybrid supercapacitors. Recently, the exfoliation/restacking manganese and cobalt layered transition metal oxides was proposed. Despite improved electrochemical performance such Mn-Co composites, their bulk organization (i.e. scale at which stacking occurs) s...

The development of instabilities in soft heterogeneous dielectric elastomers is investigated. Motivated by experiments and possible applications, we use in our analysis the physically relevant referential electric field instead of electric displacement. In terms of this variable, a closed form solution is derived for the class of layered neo-Hookean dielectrics. A criterion for the onset of ele...

The controllable synthesis of well-ordered layered materials with specific nanoarchitecture poses a grand challenge in materials chemistry. Here the solvothermal synthesis of two structurally analogous 5-coordinate organosilicate complexes through a novel transesterification mechanism is reported. Since the polycrystalline nature of the intrinsic hypervalent Si complex thwarts the endeavor in d...

The sensing properties of electrodes chemically modified with PEDOT/PSS towards catechol and hydroquinone sensing have been successfully improved by combining layers of PEDOT/PSS with layers of a secondary electrocatalytic material such as gold nanoparticles (PEDOT/PSS/AuNPs), copper phthalocyanine (PEDOT/PSS/CuPc) or lutetium bisphthalocyanine (PEDOT/PSS/LuPc2). Layered composites exhibit syne...

Our continuing quest to improve the performance of polymer composites under moist and saltwater environments has gained momentum in recent years with the reinforcement of inorganic nanoparticles into the polymer. The key to mitigate degradation of composites under such environments is to maintain the integrity of the fiber/matrix (F/M) interface. In this study, the F/M interface of carbon/vinyl...
