Applications of Holographic Optical Tweezers: Multiplexed Fluorescence Spectroscopy and the Micromechanics of Type-I Collagen

Creator:: Cibula, Matthew A.
Abstract:: The development and some applications of holographic optical tweezers (HOT) are presented. Our HOT system uses a spatial light modulator (SLM) to control the location and properties of the optical trap. We have developed a method for optimizing the diffraction efficiency of a SLM that can be applied in situ...

Dynamic mechanical analysis of wood and wood-based composites

Creator:: Gao, Hong
Abstract:: Wood and wood-based composites are being used in either new or more demanding applications. A means is needed to successfully analyze new materials and to predict their long-term performance. Two techniques, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and time-temperature superposition (TTS) offer a means to accomplish this objective. The outcome of this...

Developing New Routes for Mechanical Characterization of Metal-Organic Frameworks

Creator:: Maack, Bryan A.
Abstract:: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) represent an exciting, new class of porous materials. Their hybrid organic-inorganic structure opens up near infinite possibilities to tune and design their structure for specific properties and applications. A new generation of flexible MOFs, following a generation of stiff MOFs, has created additional design space and complexity....

Cellulose nanocrystals filled carboxymethyl cellulose composites

Creator:: Choi, YongJae
Abstract:: Hydrogel polymers are a novel class of hydrophilic materials that have large application areas in both the industrial and medical fields. Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) has received attention as a hydrogel polymer. Methods to modify the mechanical properties of gels and films made from CMC are of interest in our lab...

The effects of extractives and compatibilizers on the flexural properties of natural fiber-thermoplastic composites

Creator:: Saputra, Hartono A.
Abstract:: Natural fibers such as wood, flax, and hemp are frequently used as fillers in natural fiber-plastic composites (NFPCs). At present, wood fiber is the most commonly used filler in the production of wood-plastic composites (WPCs). The advantages of these fibers compared to conventional inorganic fibers such as glass fiber is...

The effects of growth rate and cambial age on wood properties of red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) and Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana Dougl.)

Creator:: Lei, Hua
Abstract:: This study was to investigate effects of growth rate and cambial age on properties of wood from two increasingly used hardwood species, red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) and Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana Dougl.), for better understanding factors affecting wood quality in hardwoods. Thirty 7-year-old trees grown at widely varying...

Influence of silt size and content on static liquefaction potential of sand

Creator:: Monkul, M. Murat
Abstract:: Different specimen preparation methods such as moist tamping, dry funnel deposition, slurry deposition, dry air pluviation have been reported in the literature to investigate the undrained behavior of silty sands. Similarly, different means have been used to densify the soils prepared with such methods. However, the influence of the densification...

An experimental study on tensile properties of cellulose nanocrystal reinforced epoxy nanocomposite material

Creator:: Zeng, Jin
Abstract:: Epoxy resin is a thermosetting resin that is commonly used as composite matrix. Epoxy composite materials are well utilized in industries, such as aerospace, due to their good mechanical properties. Nano-scale filler reinforced polymer composite materials have been intensively researched in recent decades. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNXLs) are a type of...
