Magnets for High Energy Physics applications built to date are generally superconducting magnets, which operate at cryogenic temperatures. The reliability and safety of the applications are entirely dependent on good design which in turn rely heavily on predictable materials performance. Where at these low temperatures the fracture toughness is of ...
In recent sheet metal forming research, efforts have been largely focused on determining optimum processing parameters, while intuitive guidelines to efficiently develop feasible component geometries are rarely considered. Consequently, there are currently no suitable design support tools that can guide component designers using the most recent, an...
Autonomous synthesis and characterization of inorganic materials requires the automatic and accurate analysis of X-ray diffraction spectra. For this task, we designed a probabilistic deep learning algorithm to identify complex multi-phase mixtures. At the core of this algorithm lies an ensemble convolutional neural network trained on simulated diff...
The portability of physiological monitoring has necessitated the biocompatibility of components used in circuitry local to biological environments. A key component in processing circuitry is the linear amplifier. Amplifier circuit topologies utilize transistors, and recent advances in bioelectronics have focused on organic electrochemical transisto...
Bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGNPs) can be internalized by cells, allowing the intracellular release of dissolution products with therapeutic benefit. Different therapeutic ions can be incorporated into the glass network that can promote angiogenesis via simulation of hypoxia conditions and consequent activation of pro-angiogenic genes. Here, nov...
Intercalation of organic anions into 2D materials can enable exfoliation, improve dispersion stability, increase surface area, and provide useful functional groups. In layered metal hydroxides, intercalation of bulk structures is commonly achieved by cumbersome and typically incomplete anion exchange reactions. In contrast, here, a series of carbox...
This thesis examines which materials are most used in memorials and what is the spectator’s expected emotional response to their material properties? First, is researched which materials are frequently used in memorials and what functional reasons lie behind them. The literature will be obtained from websites and internet articles. The observationa...
Ferromagnetic composites, polymer matrix mixed with ferromagnetic particles show good potential in medical applications. In this thesis, we especially focus on the Low Frequency Induction Heating (LFIH) of ferromagnetic catheters as an alternative process for varicose veins ablation. The LFIH effect appears as soon as the composite is exposed to an...
Calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H), is the principal hydration product of Portland cement that mainly contributes to the physical and mechanical properties of concrete. This paper aims to investigate the three-dimensional structure of C-S-H with Ca/Si ratios of 1.0 and 1.6 at the nanoscale using electron tomography. The 3D reconstructions and selecte...
