Epoxy-Based Biocomposites highlights the influence of fibre type, nanofillers, and ageing conditions on the performance of epoxy-based biocomposites subjected to various loading conditions.
In any rotating machinery system, the bearing has traditionally been a crit- ical member of the entire system, since it is the component that permits the relative motion between the stationary and moving parts.
Engineering Field Theory focuses on the applications of field theory in gravitation, electrostatics, magnetism, electric current flow, conductive heat transfer, fluid flow, and seepage.
Upon an exponential growth of life on earth, supported by a century of oil- based energy economy, following a century of its coal-based phase, the world we live in is facing a point of inflection!
