(2016 , Article)
The recent growth trends of globalization has witnessed prominent growth in luxury brand sales over the recent years. However, the dramatically changing economic environment also leads to hardship for luxury brand companies ...
Elastic properties of chiral, anti-chiral, and hierarchical honeycombs: A simple energy-based approach
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The effects of two geometric refinement strategies widespread in natural structures, chirality and self-similar hierarchy, on the in-plane elastic response of two-dimensional honeycombs were studied systematically. Simple ...
High performance sulfonic acid doped polyaniline–polystyrene blend ammonia gas sensors
(
Springer Nature
, 2016 , Article)
In this work, we present a method of preparation and sensing measurement of four camphorsulfonic acid (CSA) doped polyaniline–polystyrene blends (PANI–PS), where PANI is obtained by dispersion polymerization and blending ...

Large eddy simulation of surge inception and active surge control in a high speed centrifugal compressor with a vaned diffuser
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, we present a numerical investigation of active surge control and performance improvement for an aero engine centrifugal compressor (NASA CC3) using self-recirculating bleed slots with different bleeding ...
Time-domain simulation of second-order irregular wave diffraction based on a hybrid water wave radiation condition
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
A time-domain second-order method is presented to simulate three-dimensional wave–body interaction. In the approach, Taylor series expansions are applied to the free surface boundary conditions, and a Stokes perturbation ...
Molecular scale cure rate dependence of thermoset matrix polymers
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
This manuscript demonstrates the molecular scale cure rate dependence of di-functional epoxide based thermoset polymers cured with amines. A series of cure heating ramp rates were used to determine the influence of ramp ...
