Synergistic Toughening of Epoxy through Layered Poly(ether imide) with Dual-Scale Morphologies

Toughness of epoxies is commonly improved by adding thermoplastic phases, which is achieved through dissolution and phase separation at the microscale. However, little is known about the synergistic effects of toughening phases on multiple scales. Therefore, here, we study the toughening of epoxies with layered poly(ether imide) (PEI) structures...

Teaching Aerospace Structures and Materials to the World: Analysis of the edX MOOC Introduction to Aerospace Structures and Materials

Although aerospace traditionally has always had a multidisciplinary approach to engineering and design, the increasing complexity of aircraft and spacecraft and the rapid digitization within the aerospace industry has led to a large number of related engineering and scientific disciplines such as electrical engineers, computer scientist to work...
