Electrical tests have been used to characterize the microstructure of porous materials, the measured electrical response being determined by the contribution of the microstructure (porosity and tortuosity) and the electrical properties of the solution
In this paper, we evaluate the quality (Q) factor and the resonance frequency of a double paddle oscillator (DPO) with different thickness using analytical, computational and experimental methods. The study is carried out for the 2nd anti-symmetric

We present the first set of benchmark problems for phase field models that are being devel- oped by the Center for Heirarchical Materials Design (CHiMaD) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). While many scientific research areas

We studied the 3-D shape of concrete aggregate fines (3 µm to 250 µm) produced by high-speed VSI crushing of rock types from 10 different quarries representing a wide range of local Norwegian geological variety with respect to mineralogy and mechanical

Dynamic simulation software tools are needed for the research and development of improved methods for automatic control and automated fault detection and diagnosis of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. These tools must generate data

Energy Harvesting refers to the process of capturing and storing energy from the ambient environment. Kinetic energy harvested from the human body motion seems to be one of the most convenient and attractive solutions for wearable wireless sensors in
Systems are integrations of devices or component elements and even other systems. The notion of a system comprehends engineered and biological or mechanical or physical systems. Examples include information and dynamical systems as well as integrations of

The ability to determine the biodegradability of chemicals without resorting to expensive tests is ecologically and economically desirable. Models based on quantitative structure-activity relations (QSAR) provide some promise in this direction. However
Over the past 40 years there has been remarkable progress in the quantitative treatment of complex many-body problems in atomic and molecular physics (AMP). This has happened as a consequence of the development of new and powerful numerical methods
The dataset contains several MATLAB files and input files for the software package JCMsuite that enable the modeling of optical imaging of finite multi-line arrays. (Certain commercial materials are identified in order to specify the experimental procedure

The full 3-D scattered field above finite sets of features has been shown to contain a continuum of spatial frequency information, and with novel optical microscopy techniques and electromagnetic modeling, deep-subwavelength geometrical parameters can be

As additive manufacturing (AM) matures, models are beginning to take a more prominent stage in design and process planning for AM. A limitation frequently encountered in AM models is a lack of indication about their precision and accuracy. Often overlooked
