Summary on Grant Application Form
To investigate the relative contributions of structural relaxation processes and scattering to the variation of ultrasonic attenuation and wave propagation velocity as functions of frequency; the effects of filler particle size and volume fraction, temperature, stress and state of cure on the above; the implications of these results for adhesive property determination, nondestructive testing, adhered structure performance and polymer design.
