The role of plastic deformation and fracture during small-scale, low-rate contact scenarios in gypsum is investigated. Results indicate that the hardness decreases with increasing load, on all axes, ranging from 216 kg/mm2 at 0.25 N to 91 kg/mm2 at 4.91 N on the (010) plane and from 122 kg/mm2 at...

Microbial biodeterioration of human skeletal material from Tell Leilan, Syria (2900 – 1900 BCE)
DownloadSpring 2011
Human bone is considered one of the most direct and insightful sources of information on peoples of the past. As a result, curation protocols have been developed to ensure that the integrity of human skeletal collections is maintained. Although collections are generally considered safe when these...

In this thesis, a cellulose nanofibril (CNF) preparation method in the biorefinery platform is described, and the product is characterized and compared to commercially available varieties. CNF is a bundle of cellulose microfibrils with diameter in 5-100 nanometer range and length reaching to...
