    Sandwich Structures with Negative Poisson’s Ratio for Deployable Structures

    In the last decade several attempts were made to conceptualise from the microstructure point of view the behaviour of negative Poisson’s ratio materials. Such kind of material expands in all directions when pu...

    Ten Years of Parameter Estimation Applied to Dynamic Thermophysical Property Measurements

    The parameter estimation theory is considered the best way to estimate thermophysical properties from dynamic experiments. This approach deals with measurement and model errors in a statistical context and pro...

    The Role of Adsorption and Phase Change Phenomena in the Thermophysical Characterization of Moist Porous Materials

    Phase change phenomena in moist porous media with low liquid content, the typical condition of a porous body at ambient conditions and far from the contact of liquid water, are controlled by the shape of the a...

    Stacking layer sequence effects for glass fibre/epoxy resin cross-ply laminates

    We describe the effect of the stacking sequence on the distribution of the deformation and stress fields through the thickness of the laminate. The laminates are made of epoxy resin and glass fibres, having th...

    Statistical Analysis of 3-Point Bending Properties of Polymer Concretes Made From Marble Powder Waste, Sand Grains, and Polyester Resin

    The mechanical performance of concrete polymer beams subjected to 3-point bending was investigated. The polymer concrete incorporates marble powder waste and quarry sand. The results obtained showed that the t...

    Determining the Tensile Properties and Dispersion Characterization of CNTs in Epoxy Using Tem and Raman Spectroscopy

    In this work, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Raman spectroscopy were used to assess the dispersion quality of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in an epoxy matrix. Its ultimate tensile strength (UTS), engine...
