Electroactive Polymers for Robotic Application: Artificial Muscles and Sensors

Electroactive polymers (EAPs) reply to electric stimulation with huge deformations. they're dynamic actuators that have attracted cognizance from an interdisciplinary viewers of engineers and scientists. An allowing EAP know-how is rising which makes an attempt to mimic the houses of usual muscle and which, for that reason, can practice a distinct functionality in various biologically-inspired robotics functions.

Self-Organized Surfactant Structures

Highlighting fresh advancements in addition to destiny demanding situations, this sequence of volumes covers such themes as emulsions, nano-emulsions, nano-dispersions and novel strategies for his or her research. It additionally considers the basic procedure in components equivalent to managed unlock, drug supply and numerous purposes of nanotechnology.

Thermal Methods of Polymer Analysis

This e-book reports some of the thermal equipment used for the characterisation of polymer homes and composition. a majority of these tools learn the homes of polymers as they modify with temperature. The equipment mentioned during this publication are: differential photocalorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry, dielectric thermal research, differential thermal research, dynamic mechanical research, advanced gasoline research, gasoline chromatography, gasoline chromatography mixed with mass spectrometry, mass spectrometry, microthermal research, thermal volatilisation, thermogravimetric research and thermomechanical research.

Example text

The coke reaching the base of the stack burns, causing smelting reactions that release iron from the ore (the ore is reduced and the carbon in the coke is oxidized). Carbon monoxide formed during burning of the coke is a reducing gas that flows upward, burning and reducing the iron oxide to iron. 5 m (4-5 ft) deep, with the slag floating on top. The slag is drained off through the slag notch to a ladle, and the molten iron is removed at the tap hole to a hot metal car for transport to steelmaking facilities such as the open hearth or basic oxygen furnace.
