Composite materials are made by combining two or more distinct materials, such as a fiber and a matrix, to exploit the best qualities of each. However, predicting the performance of a composite ...

We present a homogenization method to find the effective behavior of a periodically stratified slab which accounts for the finite size of the slab. The effective behavior is that of a homogeneous ...

Estimating composite material properties can be computationally expensive and time-consuming. Researchers from Pusan National University (Busan, South Korea) have proposed a reduced basis ...

High-pressure homogenization is a powerful technique that can rapidly break apart stubborn cells, for example, by limiting the number of passes needed to disrupt them. As a highly scalable method, ...
