Actual prediction of the effective mechanical properties of tissue scaffolds is very important for tissue engineering applications. Currently common homogenization methods are based on three available approaches: standard mechanics modeling, homogenization theory, and finite element methods. Each of these methods has advantages and limitations. This paper presents comparisons and applications o...

utilization of the new compatibilizers to improve matrix/filler interface adhesion and also, nanoparticles to improve the properties of wpc products have always been of interest to researchers. in this study, the effect of oxidized polypropylene in solution phase as a comptibilizer and nanoclay particles on the physical and mechanical properties of wood fiber reinforced polypropylene composite ...

upgrading recycled fiber properties has been a constant concern in pulp and paper industry. in this respect many researches has been applied. the present paper has been considered the effect of amylase enzyme in pulping stage of old corrugated container (occ). also, pre-soaking of occ (first step of pre-soaking for 6 hours in 3% consistency in different ph(s) and second step of pre-soaking at 6...

an analytical equation of state is applied to calculate the thermodynamic properties for argon. theequation of state is that of song and mason. it is based on a statistical-mechanical perturbation theory ofhard convex bodies and can be written as fifth-order polynomial in the density. there exist three temperaturedependentparameters: the second virial coefficient, an effective molecular volume,...
