Amphiphilic polymethacrylate model co-networks: Synthesis by RAFT radical polymerization and characterization of the swelling behavior
(2006)
Reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) controlled radical polymerization was employed, for the first time, to prepare well-defined (model) amphiphilic polymer co-networks based on n-butyl methacrylate ...
Magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at moderate magnetic Reynolds number
(2004)
We consider the case of homogeneous turbulence in a conducting fluid that is exposed to a uniform external magnetic field at low to moderate magnetic Reynolds numbers (by moderate we mean here values as high as 20). When ...
Magnetoresistance of magnetite thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition on GaAs(1 0 0) and Al2O3(0 0 0 1)
(2007)
Magnetotransport properties of magnetite thin films deposited on gallium arsenide and sapphire substrates at growth temperatures between 473 and 673 K are presented. The films were grown by UV pulsed laser ablation in ...
A grid-free abstraction of the Navier-Stokes equations in Fortran 95/2003
(2008)
Computational complexity theory inspires a grid-free abstraction of the Navier-Stokes equations in Fortran 95/2003. A novel complexity analysis estimates that structured programming time grows at least quadratically with ...
Strong paramagnetism and possible ferromagnetism in pure carbon nanofoam produced by laser ablation
(2005)
We report the production of a hierarchically nanostructured magnetic carbon foam by high-repetition-rate laser ablation of glassy carbon in Ar. The clusters contain both sp2 and sp3 bonded carbon atoms. The material contains ...
Vehicle model robustness: A case study of the FMTV military truck model
(2005)
Vital to the effectiveness of simulation-based design is having a model of known quality of the system being designed. The purpose of this paper is to validate a simplified dynamic model of an FMTV (Family of Medium Tactical ...
Computational predictions of the tensile properties of electrospun fibre meshes: Effect of fibre diameter and fibre orientation
(2008)
The mechanical properties of biomaterial scaffolds are crucial for their efficacy in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. At the microscopic scale, the scaffold must be sufficiently rigid to support cell adhesion, ...
Superhelices of poly[2-(acetoacetoxy)ethyl methacrylate]
(2004)
Poly[2-(acetoacetoxy) ethyl methacrylate] (PAEMA) homopolymers were found to self-assemble into hierarchical superstructures, that is, double-stranded helical tubes of either screw sense (scanning force microscopy). Both ...
Residual Doping Effects on the Amplitude of Polarization-Induced Electric fields in GaN/AlGaN Quantum Wells
(2001)
We show that residual doping and carrier distribution effects decrease the observed polarization-induced electric fields in GaN/AlGaN quantum wells and that these effects ought to be considered if we want to compare in a ...
