Raman peak shifts of Al xGa 1-xAs have been measured as a function of both x and applied biaxial stress in a backscatter geometry. Within the precision of the...
Long-term exposure to water may degrade dental resin composites. This study investigated the water-aging effects on whisker-reinforced composites. It was...
Formulas are given for the effective volumes and effective surfaces for cylindrical rods loaded in flexure. Strength scaling for specimen size usually depends...
The role of a compliant adhesive interlayer in determining critical conditions for radial fracture at the undersurfaces of brittle coatings bonded to substrates...
Measurements were made on an integral resistor sample that showed apparent interfacial mobility. Initial measurements were made using infrared, optical, and...
Stress distributions in multilayers subjected to both residual stresses and external bending are analyzed to derive closed-form analytical solutions. There are...
Wear studies under lubricated conditions can be classified into two nominally distinct categories: investigations of thewear mechanisms active within the...

The defect structure of a 350-nm-thick epitaxial Ba0.3Sr0.7TiO3 (BSTO) film grown on (001) LaAlO3 has been investigated using conventional and high-resolution...
Structural ceramics are used in diverse tribological applications due to their unique properties that include resistance to abrasion and erosion, resistance to...
Shear-induced drop coalescence efficiency e is measured by in situ videomicroscopy of emulsions of poly(propylene glycol) and poly(ethylene glycol), with poly...
The peak frequencies of the absorption and fluorescence spectra of some fluorescent probes dissolved in resins are sensitive ton the polarity and the local...
Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) was improved by incorporating porogens to induce macropores and trasforming growth factor to stimulate bone growth. A paste was...
