The thermal shock resistance of silicon nitrides is investigated using an indentation-quench procedure. Four grades of commercially available silicon nitrides...
Light-induced aging of lignocellulosic materials has been studied with a new technique involving selectively alpha-, beta-, and gamma-13C-enriched cell wall...

The influence of shear on viscoelastic polymer-clay solutions was investigated by means of small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) under shear. SANS measured the...
The shear orientation of viscoelastic clay-polymer solutions was investigated by means of rheology and flow birefringence (δn). The polymer chains are in...

The phase diagram of coexisting liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and crystallization in nearly isorefractive blends of statistical ethylene/hexane and...
The toughening mechanisms in rubber-modified epoxies appear to be viscoelastic in nature since the fracture behavior is dependent on loading rate. This behavior...

We demonstrate the creation and measurement of shaped multimode vibrational wave packets in CCl 4 for the first time. Impulsive Raman excitation of wave packets...
The G36 permutation-inversion group theoretical tunneling-rotational formalism originally developed for the methanol dimer has been modified (for the subgroup...
