The present study analyzed free vibration of the three-layered micro annular/circular plate which its core and face sheets are made of saturated porous materials and FG-CNTRCs, respectively. The structure is subjected to magneto-electric fields and magneto-electro-mechanical pre loads. Mechanical properties of the porous core and also FG-CNTRC face sheets are varied through the thickness direction. Using dynamic Hamilton's principle, the motion equations based on MCS and FSD theories are derived and solved via GDQ as an efficient numerical method. Effect of different parameters such as pores distributions, porosity coefficient, pores compressibility, CNTs distribution, elastic foundation, multi-physical pre loads, small scale parameter and aspect ratio of the plate are investigated. The findings of this study can be useful for designing smart structures such as sensor and actuator.

For landfill monitoring and aftercare, long-term prognoses of emission and deformation behaviour are required. Landfills may be considered as heterogeneous porous soil-like structures, in which flow and transport processes of gases and liquids interact with local material degradation and mechanical deformation of the solid skeleton. Therefore, in the framework of continuous porous media mechanics a model is developed that permits the investigation of coupled mechanical, hydraulical and biochemical processes in municipal solid waste landfills.

The properties of porous silicon, such as substrate properties, porosity, thickness, refractive index, surface area, and optical properties of porous silicon were reviewed. Some properties, such as porosity, refractive index, thickness, pore diameter, multi-structures, and optical properties, are strongly dependent on the anodization process parameters. These parameters include HF concentration, current density, anodization time, and silicon wafer type and resistivity.

DBR/Host dual porous silicons containing DBR and host structure were prepared and their optical properties were characterized using Ocean Optics spectrometer. In this dual porous silicon, single porous silicon layer was used as host layer for possible biomolecule and drug materials and DBR porous silicon layer was used for signal transduction due to the recognition of molecules. Optical reflection spectrum of dual porous silicon displayed only DBR reflection but Fabry-Perot fringe pattern. DBR reflection band of dual porous silicon shifted to the shorter wavelength as the etching time of host layer increased. Cross-sectional FE-SEM image of dual porous silicon displayed a thickness of about 20 micrometer for DBR porous silicon layer. Developed etching technology could be useful to prepare DBR porous silicon which exhibited specific reflection resonance at the required wavelength and to provide an label-free biosensors and drug delivery materials.

Porous materials play a significant role in energy storage and conversion applications such as catalyst support for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell. In particular, hierarchical porous materials with both micropores (poresize, ${\delta}$ < 2 nm) and regularly arranged mesopores (2 nm < ${\delta}$ < 50 nm) are known to greatly enhance the efficiency of catalytic reactions by providing enormous surface area as well as fast mass transport channels for both reactants and products from/to active sites. Although it is generally agreed that the microscopic structure of the porous materials directly affects the performance of these catalytic reactions, neither detailed mechanisms nor fundamental understanding are available at hand. In this study, we propose an atomistic model of hierarchical nanostructured porous carbons (HNPCs) in molecular dynamics simulations. By performing a systematic study, we found that structural features of the HNPC can be independently altered by tuning specific synthesis parameters, while remaining other structures unchanged. In addition, we show some structure-property relations including mechanical and gas transport properties.

In this work the flow through a hollow porous 5:1 rectangular cylinder made of perforated plates is numerically investigated by means of 2D URANS based simulations. Two approaches are adopted to account for the porous surfaces: in the first one the pores are explicitly modeled, so providing a detailed representation of the flow. In the second one, the porous surfaces are modeled by means of pressure jumps, which allow to take into account the presence of pores without reproducing the flow details. Results obtained by using the two aforementioned techniques are compared aiming at evaluating differences and similarities, as well as identifying the main flow features which might cause discrepancies. Results show that, even in the case of pores remarkably smaller than the immersed body, their arrangement can lead to local mechanisms able to affect the global flow arrangement, so limiting the accuracy of pressure jumps based simulations. Despite that, time-averaged fields often show a reasonable agreement between the two approaches.

본 연구에서는 embossing 공정과 진공여과법에 의해서 제조된 다공성 그래핀 필름을 슈퍼캐패시터의 전극활물질로 사용하여 우수한 전기화학적 특성을 증명하였다. 그래핀 시트사이에서 Polystyrene 입자들의 삽입/제거 공정을 이용하여 기공 구조들을 제공함으로써 그래핀의 재적층(restacking)을 효과적으로 제어할 수 있었다. 상기 제조된 다공성 그래핀 필름은 넓은 표면적, 상호 연결된 기공 구조, 높은 전기전도도 및 우수한 기계적 물성을 나타내었다. 본 다공성 그래핀 필름을 슈퍼캐패시터의 전극물질로 사용하여 황산 수용액과 이온성 액체 전해질 기반의 3상 전극 시스템에서 전기화학적 특성을 살펴보았다. 다공성 그래핀 필름은 높은 비축전용량(284.5 F/g)을 나타내었으며, 이는 적층 그래핀 필름(138.9 F/g) 보다 두 배 정도 높았다. 또한, 그래핀 필름내의 이온 이동속도 향상 효과로 다공성 그래핀 필름의 충방전 속도(98.7% retention)와 충방전 수명(97.2% retention)이 크게 향상되었다.

The present paper examines the natural frequency responses of the bi-directional (n_x-n_y, n_y-n_z and n_z-n_x) and multidirectional (n_x-n_y-n_z) functionally graded (FG) plate and curved structures with and without porosity. The even and uneven kind of porosity pattern are considered to observe the influence of porosity type and porosity index. The numerical findings have been obtained using a higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) based isometric finite element (FE) approach generated in a MATLAB platform. According to the convergence and validation investigation, the proposed HSDT based FE model is adequate to predict free vibrational responses of multidirectional porous FG plates and curved structures. Further a parametric analysis is carried out by taking various design parameters into account. The free vibrational behavior of bidirectional (2D) and multidirectional (3D) perfect-imperfect FGM structure is examined against various power law index, support conditions, aspect, and thickness ratio, and for the curvature of curved structures. The results indicate that the maximum non-dimensional fundamental frequency (NFF) value is observed in perfect FGM plates and curved structures compared to porous FGM plates and curved structures and it is maximum for FGM plates and curved structures with uneven kind of porosity than even porosity.

Various solid structures were prepared by electrospray technique. In this process, liquid flows out from a capillary nozzle under a high electrical potential and is subjected to an electric field, which causes elongation of the meniscus to form a jet. In our study, by controlling the amount of polyvinyl pyrrolydone in precursor solution, the jet either disrupted into droplets for the formation of spherical particles or was stretched in the electric field for the formation of fibers. During the electrospray process, the ethanol solvent was evaporated and induced the solidification of precursors, forming solid particles. The evaporation of ethanol solvent also enhanced the mass transport of solutes from the inner core to the solid shell, which facilitated fabrication of porous and hollow structure. The network structures were also prepared by heating the collector.

In this study, the elemental mercury removal behaviors of silver-plated porous carbons materials were investigated. The pore structures and total pore volumes of the hybrid materials were analyzed by $N_2$ adsorption/desorption analysis at 77 K. The pore structures and surface morphologies of the hybrid materials were characterized by XRD and SEM, respectively. The elemental mercury adsorption capacities of all silver-plated porous carbons hybrid materials were higher than those of the as-received samples, despite the fact that the specific surface areas and total pore volumes decreased with increasing metal loading time. It was found that silver nanoparticles showed excellent elemental mercury removal behaviors in carbonaceous hybrid materials.
