In this paper, the inter-ply frictional behavior between woven and unidirectional (UD) carbon/epoxy prepregs was studied its effect on forming process investigated. The coefficient of friction (COF) obtained according to fiber direction prepreg, temperature, sliding speed pressure. Also, properties such as shear modulus bending stiffness were measured. addition, hybrid woven/UD formed by U-shap...

The atomic-layered semiconducting materials of transition metal dichalcogenides are considered effective light sources with both potential applications in thin and flexible optoelectronics and novel functionalities. In spite of the great interest in optoelectronic properties of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides, the excitonic properties still need to be addressed, specifically in...

poor adhesion between two successive bituminous layers causes adverse effects on the structural strength of the pavement and develops a numbers of premature failure. to improve the adhesion, it is a general practice to apply a tack coat over an existing or newly constructed bituminous surface before laying another bituminous layer. the main objective of this study is to explore the influence of...

In this paper, nonlinear behavior of strengthened steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) by FRP laminates theoretically and numerically has been investigated. In the first part, a new method, “the composite-plate frame Interaction (C-PFI) method”, has been introduced to predict the shear behavior of the composite steel plate shear wall systems (CSPSWs). In the second part, several models of one-story ...

in this research, using the modified compression field theory (mcft), a new truss based model is proposed to predict the behavior of reinforced concrete coupling beams with diagonal reinforcement. the model is able to consider the effects of shear and axial forces and bending moment, simultaneously. the proposed model includes a nonlinear shear spring, an axial spring, two inclined truss member...

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) nanosheets exhibit remarkable electronic and optical properties. The 2D features, sizable bandgaps and recent advances in the synthesis, characterization and device fabrication of the representative MoS2, WS2, WSe2 and MoSe2 TMDs make TMDs very attractive in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics. Similar to graphite and graphene, the atom...
