Three-dimensional characterization of particle size, shape, and internal porosity for Apollo 11 and Apollo 14 lunar regolith and JSC-1A lunar regolith soil simulant

June 8, 2024

Jay Goguen, Andrew Sharits, Ann Chiaramonti Debay, Thomas V. Lafarge, Edward Garboczi
Samples of soils collected by the Apollo 11 mission (10084) and the Apollo 14 mission (14163) were obtained from the NASA CAPTEM program. The particle size, shape, and internal porosity were characterized in three dimensions (3D) using a combination of X

In situ observation of the multistep process of cold sintering

The ceramic cold sintering process (CSP) offers an eco-friendly approach to producing fully dense ceramics at low temperatures. However, an incomplete mechanistic understanding hinders its optimization and widespread adoption. In this study, we analyze the

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Study of Carbonated Hydroxyapatite Synthesized through Calcium Phosphate Cements

Alline F. Myers, Shozo Takagi, Stanislav Frukhtbeyn, Laurence Chow, Veronika Szalai, Lonnie Cumberland, Ileana Pazos, Eaman Karim
Ionizing radiation-induced paramagnetic defects in calcified tissues like tooth enamel are indicators of irradiation dose. Hydroxyapatite (HA), the principal constituent in these materials, incorporates a variety of anions (CO32, F, Cl, SiO44 ) and

Analytical and Numerical Analyses for Two-Dimensional Stress Transfer

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
C H. Hsueh, P Becher, Lin-Sien H. Lum, Stephen A. Langer, W Carter
Both analytical modeling and numerical simulations were performed to analyze the stress transfer in platelet-reinforced composites in a two-dimensional sense. In the two-dimensional model, an embedded elongate plate bonded to a matrix along its length
