GLARE (glass-reinforced fibre–metal laminate ) is aluminum based material of fiber metal (henceforth FML) that often fabricated by expensive autoclave procedure. In this study, the process Injected Molding or (also known as VARTM was employed a cost-effective alternative to produce GLARE. Several surface preparation procedures are applied improve interlaminar shear strength. A T3 temper 2024 al...

Current orthopedic implants have functional lifetimes of only 10-15 years due to a variety of reasons including infection, extensive inflammation, and overall poor osseointegration (or a lack of prolonged bonding of the implant to juxtaposed bone). To improve properties of titanium for orthopedic applications, this study anodized and subsequently coated titanium with drugs known to reduce infec...

Porous carbon materials with pore sizes from 3 to 200 nm were synthesized by reacting hexafluorobenzene with Na liquid at 623 K. NaF crystals, a byproduct formed in the reaction, acted as nanotemplate to assist the pore formation. By employing hexafluorobenzene to react with Na incorporated within the channels (diameter 200 nm) of anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) membranes at 323-623 K, the carbon...

Polymer-ceramic pressure-sensitive paint (PC-PSP) has been investigated as a surface-pressure sensor for unsteady aerodynamics and short duration measurements. This PSP provides a fast response to a change in pressures with a spray-coating ability. Because it is sprayed onto an aerodynamic surface, the thickness of PC-PSP may play an important role in determining the performance of this sensor....

Externally controlled site specific drug delivery could potentially provide a means of reducing drug related side effects whilst maintaining, or perhaps increasing therapeutic efficiency. The aim of this work was to develop a nanoscale drug carrier, which could be loaded with an anti-cancer drug and be directed by an external magnetic field. Using a single, commercially available monomer and a ...
