Web Workshop - Introduction to Simpleware Software, Oct 3 2018
Join us for this interactive web workshop where we will demonstrate the ease of 3D image processing with Simpleware Software. We will walk you through the workflow of how to build high fidelity models from 3D data for a variety of applications.This web workshop features a live demonstration in Simpleware Software where you will experience first-hand how quick and easy it is to visualize and process your 3D image data and generate high quality models for CAD, FE/CFD and 3D printing.
Effects of CNT size on the desalination performance of an outer-wall CNT slit membrane
https://doi.org/10.1039/C8CP01191E We investigate the effect of varying carbon nanotube (CNT) size on the desalination performance through slit confinements formed by horizontally aligned CNTs stacked on top of one another. By increasing the CNT size, the results obtained from this study indicate a corresponding increase in the water flow rate, accompanied by a slight reduction in salt rejection performance.

A design principle for actuation of nematic glass sheets
(in Journal of Elasticity)
A continuum mechanical framework is developed for determining a) the class of stress-free deformed shapes and corresponding director distributions on the undeformed configuration of a nematic glass membrane that has a prescribed spontaneous stretch field and b) the class of undeformed configurations and corresponding director distributions on it resulting in a stress-free given deformed shape of a nematic glass sheet with a prescribed spontaneous stretch field. The proposed solution rests on an understanding of how the Lagrangian dyad of a deformation of a membrane maps into the Euleriandyad in three dimensional ambient space. Interesting connections between these practical questions of design and the mathematical theory of isometric embeddings of manifolds, deformations between two prescribed Riemannian manifolds, and the slip-line theory of plasticity are pointed out.
