The properties of porous silicon make it a promising material for a host of applications including drug delivery, molecular and cell-based biosensing, and tissue engineering. Porous Silicon has previously shown its ...

The objective of BOJCAS was to develop advanced design methods for bolted joints in composite aircraft structures. This is a critical technology supporting the introduction of composites into the primary structure of ...

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is growing in pace, not only in design and construction stages, but also in the analysis of facilities throughout their life cycle. With this continued growth and utilisation of the ...

Development and optimisation of therapeutic applications using biological scaffolds composed of naturally occurring extracellular matrix (ECM) have received significant attention in the field of tissue engineering. ...

Stress- and strain-controlled tests of heat treated high-strength rail steel (Australian Standard AS1085.1) have been performed in order to improve the characterisation of the said material׳s ratcheting and fatigue wear ...

The large-scale production of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is commonly carried out using NS0 cells, which are a cholesterol deficient mouse myeloma cell line. The non-ionic surfactant Pluronic F-68 is routinely ...

Some of the largest heat fluxes that can be found in contemporary engineering applications (O ∼ 10^3 W/cm2) are generated by laser-bar arrays within Photonics Integrated Circuits (PICs) – the backbone of optical telecommunication ...

The residual stresses in heat-treated 7075 aluminum alloy blocks have been characterized using neutron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, and incremental center-hole drilling. Specimens were quenched to induce high-magnitude ...

This work presents details of manufacturing and testing of a carbon fibre polyetheretherketone (CFPEEK) induction welded hat-stiffened panel. Mechanical testing is carried out to evaluate the performance of the welded ...

Introduction Existing synthetic vascular grafts have unacceptably high failure rates when replacing small diameter infrapopliteal vessels [1]. The lack of a confluent endothelial lining is repeatedly cited as the most ...
