Abstract:

The glassy wormlike chain model is a highly successful phenomenological model recently introduced to describe anomalously slow subdiffusive dynamics in biopolymer networks and living cells. Here we extend this model by proposing a generic scheme how to include nonlinear plastic effects by introducing the possibility of force-dependent opening and closing of internal bonds. Further, we discuss physiological implications of this bond kinetics. Stability arguments lead us to the postulation of a “physiological sheet” in the parameter space. This sheet defines the set of parameters characterizing

Hard coating 's thermal stability is essential due to the high temperature environment of high-speed cutting applications, while the induced phase and microstructure evolution affects the mechanical properties. In this thesis, the mechanical stability of arc-evaporated hard nitride coatings annealed at high temperature is analyzed and connected to the phase evolution. In addition to hardness, fracture toughness is evaluated by surface and cross-sectional investigations by scanning/transmission electron microscopy of damage events by mechanical tests.

Abstract:

<p>Comets are the most primordial and least evolved bodies in the Solar System. As such, they are unique sources of information regarding the early history of the Solar System. However, little is known about cometary nuclei since they are very difficult to observe due to the obscuring coma. Indirect methods are therefore often used to extract knowledge about nucleus parameters such as size, shape, density, material strength, and rotational properties. For example, tidal and non-tidal splitting of cometary nuclei can provide important information about nuclear densities and material strengths,

There is conflicting information on the mechanical properties and ageing kinetics of starch-water-glycerol systems. This makes understanding the changes occurring on storage of edible products difficult to predict.

The objectives of the work were to evaluate how the presence of polyols effects glass transition temperature (Tg), sorption isotherms, diffusion rates and texture parameters and to create models that could be us

Relatively little is known about the folding and stability of membrane proteins.

In these mechanical unfolding experiments, an external pulling force played the role of the denaturant and lead to unfolding of the three-dimension

This study documents experiments performed on lifted turbulent diffusion flames in the hysteresis regime with air co-flow. Undiluted methane, ethylene, and propane were used as fuels and two nozzle sizes were used. The results confirm the non-linearity of the lift-off height with nozzle velocity, showing a previously undocumented region where lifted flame height increases as fuel velocity is decreased and that reattachment nozzle velocity varies linearly with co-flow. Using jet relations from Tieszen, the local excess jet velocity was computed and found to vary linearly for flames lifted well

Abstract:

Polymer composites formed from layered fillers with high surface volume ratio show enhanced reinforcement. Graphite oxide is a high modulus material that can be separated into thin layers with high surface area. The aim of this study is to prepare polymer layered graphite oxide composites using functionalised polyolefin to enhance compatibility with various forms of layered graphite oxide in varying concentration. Functionalised polyolefins reinforced with layered graphite oxides and expanded graphite oxides were prepared using solution blending and melt blending methods. Three different mi

Abstract:

The large elastic limit, the strength close to the theoretical limit, the excellent magnetic properties and good corrosion resistance of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) make them promising for several applications such as micro-geared motor parts, pressure sensors, Coriolis flow meters, power inductors and coating materials. The main limitation of these materials is their reduced macroscopic ductility at room temperature, resulting from an inhomogeneous deformation concentrated in narrows shear bands. The poor ductility can be overcome by the incorporation of a ductile second phase in the glassy
