The development of new generations of propellants with better energetic properties may be hampered by unsatisfactory mechanical behaviors in terms of strength and toughness. A micromechanical approach is adopted to provide ...

Research puts forward perception-based cognitive workload evaluation methods to help VR developers and users measuring their workload when playing with a VR application. Approaches to measure workload based on biosensors ...

From the liquid state to room temperature, two successive solid-state phase transitions occur in pure zirconia. It is well-known that the last one (tetragonal to monoclinic) is martensitic and induces large volume variations ...

This paper presents an investigation on the effects of hydrothermal aging on Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) composite. Two different techniques were carried out to study the inner structure of aged SMC composite. Firstly, ...
