In polymer nanocomposites, other than the matrix and inclusion, a third phase so-called interphase, is commonly observed. Inter-phase properties affect the overall macroscopic mechanical behavior. It is crucial to model the interphase and obtain the effective composite properties accordingly. Homogenization theory is very useful and powerful; however, many of the homogenization-based techniques have deficiencies. The goal of the study is to combine two very well-known homogenization techniques to model the polymer nanocomposites with coated inclusions. One of the goals of the study is to demonstrate the deficiency that originated from the interphase modeling and overcome this problem by the proposed two-level homogenization method. This method aims to model load transfer between the matrix and the reinforcement element through the interphase in a correctly. For this purpose, first, an effective inclusion is formed using finite element homogenization, then the effective inclusion and the matrix are homogenized using micromechanics-based Double Inclusion method. The proposed method provides a remarkable improvement compared to the micromechanics-based method for the soft interphase case.

A two-level homogenization method for polymer nanocomposites with coated inclusions
Güzel, Dilek; Gürses, Ercan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2021-2-04)
Polymer nanocomposites are materials which have polymer matrices and nano-scalereinforcement elements. Other than the matrix and the reinforcement element, an-other phase in nanocomposite systems has been observed and some of the propertyenhancement or deficiency has been attributed to this phase. The third phase inthe composite system is known as the interphase. The local properties of polymernanocomposites are not easy to distinguish since the length scale is very small andcharacterization ...
A SPINOR MODEL FOR QUANTUM COSMOLOGY
DERELI, T; ONDER, M; TUCKER, RW (1994-03-31)
The question of the interpretation of Wheeler-DeWitt solutions in the context of cosmological models is addressed by implementing the Hamiltonian constraint as a spinor wave equation in minisuperspace. We offer a relative probability interpretation based on a non-closed vector current in this space and a prescription for a parametrisation of classical solutions in terms of classical time. Such a prescription can accommodate classically degenerate metrics describing manifolds with signature change. The relat...
A density functional theory study on the structural and electronic properties of PbxSbySez (x plus y plus z=2, 3) clusters
Pekoz, Rengin; Erkoç, Şakir (2018-01-30)
The structural and electronic properties of neutral ternary PbxSbySez clusters (x y + z = 2, 3) in their ground states have been explored by means of density functional theory calculations. The geometric structures and binding energies are systematically explored and for the most stable configurations of each cluster type vibrational frequencies, charges on atoms, energy difference between highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals, and the possible dissociations channels have been analyzed. ...

© 2021 Elsevier B.V.The equipping of nanoparticles with the peptide moiety recognizing a particular receptor, enables cell or tissue-specific targeting, therefore the optimization of the targeted nanoparticles is a key factor in the formulation design process. In this paper, we report the optimization concept of Doxorubicin encapsulating PEtOx-b-PLA polymersome formulation equipped with Peptide18, which is a breast cancer recognizing tumor homing peptide, and the unveiling of the cell-specific delivery pote...
An ab initio study on the investigation of structural, electronic, mechanical and lattice dynamical properties of the M(2)AX type MAX phases Sc2AlB0.5C0.5, Sc2AlB0.5N0.5 and Sc2AlC0.5N0.5 compounds
SÜRÜCÜ, GÖKHAN; SÜRÜCÜ, GÖKHAN (IOP Publishing, 2017-10-01)
The hypothetical Sc2AlB0.5C0.5, Sc2AlB0.5N0.5 and Sc2AlC0.5N0.5 compounds are M(2)AX type MAX phases referred to as #211 and have hexagonal crystal structure which conforms to P6(3)/mmc space group. These compounds have been investigated by using generalized gradient approximation in the Density Functional Theory and plane-wave pseudopotential method. After the optimization process of the compounds, their structural, electronic, mechanical, and lattice dynamical properties have been examined in detail. The ...
