Techniques using membranes for the treatment of wastewater usually promote higher quality of treated water when compared to other processes. Among them, pervaporation has advantages in terms of selectivity, in addition to ...

Friction materials are fundamental components in vehicle motion control and therefore have extremely complex technical requirements. Currently it is not enough to develop a product that has friction coefficient stability, ...

Computer simulations are becoming increasingly useful for studying friction, enabling the application of controlled conditions, uncoupling mechanisms, and set-ups that are not usually achievable in physical experiments, ...

Tissue engineering aims to replace the affected tissues and organs through structures known as scaffolds. Biomaterials and tissue engineering can be applied in tissue replacement, through the use of biocompatible, bioactive ...
