Various biotic and abiotic agents affect the performance of wood products. Chemicals, thermal energy, radiation, as well as different organisms have the potential to alter the optical, haptic and functional performance of ...

We compare the thermomechanical stresses in solar cell interconnections based on electrically conductive adhesives (ECA) with soldered joints by using bending experiments and finite element analysis (FEA). Additionally, ...

The conventional development of a coating system for cutting tools includes a variety of test series with elaborate experimental parameter studies. In particular, experimental investigations of the cutting behavior cause ...
