Article
Material extrusion (MatEx) is finding increasing applications in additive manufacturing of thermoplastics due to the ease of use and the ability to process disparate polymers. Since part strength is anisotropi...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The enhancement of interfacial interactions in carbon nanotube (CNT)/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) polymer matrix composites was investigated. The approach taken was to functionalize the CNTs with the photoreact...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) composites fabricated using a fused deposition modeling approach were characterized for mechanical strain energy storage and dissipation c...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Carbon fiber composites display considerable heterogeneity in strength and stiffness depending on the respective constituent properties, reinforcement alignments, and interfacial relationships. Typically the i...
Chapter and Conference Paper
In this research, we present the preliminary results related to our investigations on the potential of electrical signals through the network of nanoscale reinforcements and the consequent Joule heating in pol...
