Characterisation and Modelling for Elastomeric and Gel-Like Magnetorheological Materials
… vibration reduction and isolation for infrastructures. However, some MR materials have inherent limitations: sedimentation and instability of MR fluid, and low MR effect and large energy consumption of MR elastomer. MR gels were fabricated to gain the merits of both MR fluid and MR …

Effect of grain structure and doping on the mechanical properties of polysilicon thin films for MEMS
… engineered by modification of the material microstructure. Such advances require detailed experimental studies and quantitative understanding of the convoluted effects of the processing methods on the ensuing mechanical properties. This dissertation investigated the role of grain size and doping …

The Design and Synthesis of Magnetic Nanocomposites
… and processing of multiple magnetic nanoparticle structures designed for the enhancement of various, application specific, properties. In the first experiments a tunable core/shell structure was developed with either enhanced optical properties or enhanced catalytic reactivity based solely upon …

Progressive Failure Analysis of Laminated Composite Structures
Laminated composite structures have started to play a very significant role in today's aircraft industry. The application of composite materials has now gone beyond the borders of aircraft design and has entered into such fields as automotive, athletics and recreational equipment, etc. The light …

Development of self-healing techniques for fiber reinforced composites
… service life, these composites due to their laminated structure (no fibers are present in transverse direction) appear matrix cracking and delaminations between the reinforcing plies. A primary limitation of these composites is the poor interlaminar toughness and strength. The mismatch of …

Out of autoclave manufacturing of cfrps having multiscale reinforcement for improved interlaminar fracture toughness and multifunctional characteristics
… life, these composite materials due to their laminated structure appear poor out-of-plane properties due to the absence of through-thickness reinforcement. Additionally, their low polymer matrix toughness leads to interlaminar failures such as delamination. Delaminations as a primary failure …
