(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This thesis aims to examine the effect of volume fraction of solids in collagen-glycosaminoglycan (GAG) scaffolds on the compressive-strain behavior of the structure and compare these results to the open-cell foam model. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The Calaxo ® screw, developed by Smith and Nephew, is a novel biomedical composite composed of poly-DL-lactide-co-glycolide (PLLA:PGA) 85:15 and calcium carbonate particulates. Comparisons to an identical surgical anchor ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The effects of pretreatment of iron catalyst for carbon nanotube (CNT) growth was studied. CNTs were grown on Fe/A1203 (1/10 nm) thin-film catalyst deposited on silicon substrates via exposure to C2H4 in a thermal chemical ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The effects of oxygen on Fe-catalyzed carbon nanotube (CNT) growth on Ta substrates was studied. CNTs were grown on Fe thin-film catalysts deposited on silicon substrates via exposure to C₂H₄ in a thermal chemical vapor ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Introduction: As the size of electronic and magnetic devices decreases, nanoscale patterning becomes an increasingly important area of research. Two different approaches have been taken to pattern media: top-down methods ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Titanium-Tantalum shape memory materials have widespread potential in biomedical applications due to their high degree of biocompatibility, favorable mechanical properties, high corrosion resistance and the possibility of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Striped gold nanoparticles are unique in several of their characteristics and applications. Recent experiments have determined a new medium with which contain the nanoparticles is that of a chemical gel. The nanoparticles ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)The intermittent nature of renewable electricity generation has created a global need for low-cost, highly scalable energy storage. One potential solution is the low-cost air-breathing aqueous sulfur redox flow battery ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)One of the key limitations in the wide-scale adoption of mature renewable energy technologies is the lack of grid-level energy storage solutions. One important figure of merit in these battery systems is a high rate ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Carbon, tungsten, platinum, and iridium were examined as candidate anode materials for an electrolytic cell. The materials were pre-selected to endure high process temperatures and were characterized for inertness and high ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)An amorphous Ni-W alloy matrix was incorporated with W particulate through two types of electrodeposition. The plating bath for the electrodeposition contained nickel sulfate, sodium tungstate, sodium citrate, ammonium ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)An investigation was carried out of the electronic characteristics of drop-cast films comprised of phenylated ligand-capped gold nanoparticles. In homoligand-type films, the dominant mechanism of charge transfer was expected ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Alloy anodes form a promising path to the use of multi-cation electrolytes by increasing chemical stability. In this study, a lithium-magnesium alloy anode was developed such that lower cost and lower melting temperature ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)As environmental footprint considerations for companies gain greater importance, the need for quantitative impact assessment tools such as life cycle assessment (LCA) has become a higher priority. Currently, the cost and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Growing evidence supports that the unique mechanical behavior of mussel byssal threads, such as high toughness and self-healing, rely on an intricate balance of permanent covalent and reversible metal coordination bonds. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The variability of a nanostructured material's fundamental properties as compared to its bulk state has led to the rich field of nanotechnology and the quest to uncover unique properties of structures at the nanoscale. An ...
