Liquid Composite Moulding processes are considered as promising and effective to manufacture structure composite parts reinforced with synthetic natural fabrics. The main novelty of this work is the estimation capillary pressure (Pcap) for both fabrics at different fibre volume fractions (Vf) liquids. From previous works, Pcap was defined equivalence between Washburn’s equation Darcy’s law whil...

Abstract Carbon fibre/fabric (CF) is a privileged reinforcement for advanced polymer composites in tribological applications where performance is primary criteria rather than the cost due to the combination of distinct properties such as high specific strength, thermo-oxidative resistance, thermal and electrical conductivity along with self-lubricity etc. However problems associated with its ch...

The role of heart disease in increasing worldwide death and the limited availability of organs for transplantation have encouraged multiple strategies to fabricate functional and implantable constructs. One of these strategies is to develop a biologically similar heart tissue scaffold, in which two types of fiber and hydrogel are commonly used. Toward this goal, taking advantage of both hydroge...

We examine the correspondence between the anti-de Sitter (AdS) description of conformal field theories (CFTs) and the unparticle description of CFTs. We show how unparticle actions are equivalent to holographic boundary actions for fields in AdS, and how massive unparticles provide a new type of infrared cutoff that can be simply implemented in AdS by a soft breaking of conformal symmetry. We a...

We give a geometric interpretation for D-branes in the c = 1 string theory. The geometric description is provided by complex curves which arise in both CFT and matrix model formulations. On the CFT side the complex curve appears from the partition function on the disk with Neumann boundary conditions on the Liouville field (FZZ brane). In the matrix model formulation the curve is associated wit...
