On the effect of substrate viscoelasticity on the evaporation kinetics and deposition patterns of nanosuspension drops
This study investigates the evaporation of sessile pure water and nanosuspension drops on viscoelastic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films. We varied the viscoelasticity of the PDMS films by controlling the curing ratio and...

Numerical modelling of structures adjacent to retaining walls subjected to earthquake loading
X Guan, GSP Madabhushi
Dec 05, 2020
In an urban environment, it is often necessary to locate structures close to existing retaining walls due to congestion in space. When such structures are in seismically active zones, the dynamic loading attracted by the...
