The Difference

Aim. To evaluate the potential utility of fibrin matrices containing 10, 20, and 25 mg/ml of fibrinogen (fibrin-10, fibrin-20, and fibrin-30, respectively) in vascular tissue engineering (VTE). Materials and Methods. Fibrinogen was isolated using the method of ethanol cryoprecipitation and polymerized using a solution of thrombin and CaCl2. The fibrin structure was studied in a scanning electron microscope, and the physical and mechanical properties of the material were tested on a Zwick/Roell test machine. The metabolic activity of endothelial cells (EC) on the fibrin surface was evaluated by the MTT assay, and the viability of fibroblasts in the thickness of fibrin and possibility for migration by in fluorescent and light microscopy. Percent of fibrin shrinkage was determined from the difference in the sample volumes before and after removal of moisture. Results. The fiber diameter did not differ among all fibrin samples, but the pore diameter in fibrin-30 was smaller than those in fibrin-10 and fibrin-20. A possibility for migration of fibroblasts into the depth of the fibrin matrix and preservation of 97-100% viability of cells at a depth 5 mm was confirmed. The metabolic activity of EC on the surface of fibrin-20 and fibrin-30 exceeded that on collagen, fibronectin, and fibrin-10. All fibrin samples shrank in volume to 95.5-99.5%, and the highest shrinkage was seen in fibrin-10. The physical and mechanical properties of fibrin were inferior to those of human A. mammaria by a factor of 10. Conclusion. Fibrin with fibrinogen concentrations of 20 and 30 mg/ml maintains a high metabolic and proliferative activity of EC on the surface and also a high viability of fibroblasts in the matrix. Its availability, ease of preparation, and a number of other favorable properties make fibrin a promising material for VTE. However, the problem of insufficient strength requires further investigations.

The long-term property development of fly ash (FA)-based geopolymer (FA−GEO) incorporating industrial solid waste carbide slag (CS) for up to 360 d is still unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the fresh, physical, and mechanical properties and microstructures of FA−GEO composites with CS and to evaluate the effects of CS when the composites were cured for 360 d. FA−GEO composites with CS were manufactured using FA (as an aluminosilicate precursor), CS (as a calcium additive), NaOH solution (as an alkali activator), and standard sand (as a fine aggregate). The fresh property and long-term physical properties were measured, including fluidity, bulk density, porosity, and drying shrinkage. The flexural and compressive strengths at 60 d and 360 d were tested. Furthermore, the microstructures and gel products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The results show that the additional 20.0% CS reduces the fluidity and increases the conductivity of FA−GEO composites. Bulk densities were decreased, porosities were increased, and drying shrinkages were decreased as the CS content was increased from 0.0% to 20.0% at 360 d. Room temperature is a better curing condition to obtain a higher long-term mechanical strength. The addition of 20.0% CS is more beneficial to the improvement of long-term flexural strength and toughness at room temperature. The gel products in CS−FA−GEO with 20.0% CS are mainly determined as the mixtures of sodium aluminosilicate (N−A−S−H) gel and calcium silicate hydration (C−S−H) gel, besides the surficial pan-alkali. The research results provide an experimental basis for the reuse of CS in various scenarios.

During the rubber long-term storage in the open air and under the influence of certain temperatures, there is a real threat to the environment where environmental damages cannot be ignored. The objective of this paper is to study the mechanical properties of rubber during its processing by vulcanization after adding some materials to improve their properties. The used materials are: rubber from tires where the proportion of rubber varies from 70-78%, vulcanization granules of rubber, non-vulcanized natural NR rubber, and granulated sulphur. Curves of stress-strain of the recycled rubber are modelled at different diameters of the granules added to the materials for vulcanization removal. As result, the improvement of the mechanical properties are obtained by increasing the diameter of the granules but there a threshold which should not be exceeded.

AbstractA new kind of martensitic ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN heat-resistant steel has been attracted more attentions in recent years, which is mainly applied in ultra-supercritical steam turbines. The ageing property for ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN heat-resistant steel is very important because it often serves for long-time at high-temperature environment. Herein, a long-term ageing heat treatment was conducted on ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN steel at 600 °C heat for 17,000 hours. The microstructure evolution and property variation of the ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN steel were analysed before and after ageing, and also the effect of the precipitates on the mechanical properties was studied. The result showed that strength, the plastic index and impact power of the ZG1Cr10MoWVNbN steel were gradually decreased after long-term and high-temperature ageing at 600 °C due to the changes of martensite morphology and the coarsening of M23C6 carbide precipitation phase. Furthermore, fine precipitation of matrix MX carbide can also attribute to the change of mechanical properties at high temperature.

Researches of spray pure polyurea technology for hydraulic concrete protection in water conservancy facilities to ensure long term security operation has a great significance. With an emphasis upon mechanical properties and surface morphology of spray pure polyurea coatings comparing before and after aging by means of the artificial accelerated xenon arc lamp(AAXAL) and scanning electron microscope(SEM) in this paper. Besides, the dry-wet circulation resistance performance of coatings wre analyzed through experiment. It is shown that tensile strength, elongation at break and tear strength of coatings increased by 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.7% respectively after AAXAL aging 720h. By contrast, after aging 3000h the results were 22.6%, 3.8% and 17.4% respectively, the tendency of increasing at first and then reducing can be obtained. The mechanical properties reduced slightly for adding defects of coating surface after aging, however, the resistance performance of ultraviolet ray was excellent. The similar development trend of mechanical properties were gained from dry-wet circulation experiment. After aging 200 cycles, the tensile strength and tear strength descended by 4.1% and 1.7% severally but the elongation at break ascended by 5.0%. In a word, it is suggested that the aging of coatings were negligible in dry-wet circulation in short term.

Wood is loosely stored to ensure continuous production inside paper mills where it is exposed to the effect of external factors. The impact of storage leads to some changes of mechanical and physical properties of wood, but these changes are not the same in all specimens. In this paper, it has been observed that the long term storage of wood influences the impact strength in bending and the permeability of wood for fluids. During the storage, there was a decrease of impact strength in bending of poplar heartwood by 28.3% and oak by 22.1% and mature beech wood by 37.3%. Also, there was decreased a permeability of wood, poplar sapwood 18.3 % and heartwood of 53.9%; oak sapwood by 20.0% and heartwood by 20.3%; beech sapwood 45.8% and mature wood by 48.2%. By decrease of the observed properties of the stored wood, a deterioration a quality of produced pulp can be expected (a higher Kappa number, amount reject and decrease the mechanical properties of pulp).

Testing Protocols

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most important problems in biomechanical engineering, and there have been many experiments conducted in order to characterize the mechanical properties of brain tissue. However, obtaining fresh human brain tissue is difficult, if not impossible. Also, the sample preparation and testing protocols must be carried out with great delicacy because brain tissue is very soft and vulnerable to being deformed under a very small amount of load. Most importantly, according to several researchers, each sample must be tested only one time as the tissue may be damaged and its characteristics subsequently changed. This paper is intended to examine the amount of decay that can happen in material characteristics due to retesting. A stress relaxation test is conducted on the same samples of the swine brain tissue multiple times in small and large deformations. The mechanical properties of the substance are calculated before and after retesting, and the constants of the tissue, as mechanical characteristics, are determined and compared. Short- and long-term moduli, relaxation times and relaxation functions are calculated and compared to understand how much they decay after repeating the experiments. The results show that retesting does not significantly change the elastic part of the tissue characteristics, but the viscous behavior shows a relatively sizeable change. The ability to account for the material decay of the samples due to repetition of the experiments results in the need for fewer samples and less preparation time and effort.

Underground Reservoirs

Many underground reservoirs for storing water have been constructed in China’s western coal mines to protect water resources. Coal pillars which work as dams are subjected to a long-term soaking environment of concentrated salty water. Deterioration of the coal dam under the attack of the salty solution poses challenges for the long-term stability and serviceability of underground reservoirs. The evolution of the physical and mechanical properties of coal subjected to salty solutions are investigated in this paper. Coal from a western China mine is made to standard cylinder samples. The salty solution is prepared according to chemical tests of water in the mine. The coal samples soaked in the salty solution for different periods are tested by scanning electron microscope, nuclear magnetic resonance, and ultrasonic detector techniques. Further, uniaxial compression tests are carried out on the coal specimens. The evolutions of porosity, mass, microstructures of coal, solution pH values, and stress–strain curves are obtained for different soaking times. Moreover, a damage constitutive model for the coal samples is developed by introducing a chemical-stress coupling damage variable. The result shows that the corrosion effect of salty solution on coal samples becomes stronger with increasing immersion time. The degree of deterioration of the longitudinal wave velocity (vp) is positively correlated with the immersion time. With the increase in soaking times, the porosity of coal gradually increases. The relative mass firstly displays an increasing trend and then decreases with time. The peak strength and elastic modulus of coal decreases exponentially with soaking times. The developed damage constitutive model can well describe the stress–strain behavior of coal subjected to salty solution under the uniaxial compression.
