Abstract One of the most pressing concerns for the consumer market is the detection of adulteration in meat products due to their preciousness. The rapid and accurate identification mechanism for lard adulteration in meat products is highly necessary, for developing a mechanism trusted by consumers and that can be used to make a definitive diagnosis. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) is used in this work to identify lard adulteration in cow, lamb, and chicken samples. A simplified extraction method was implied to obtain the lipids from pure and adulterated meat. Adulterated samples were obtained by mixing lard with chicken, lamb, and… More >

Abstract Molecular dynamics method incorporating with parallel computing technique was employed to study the mechanical properties of textured polycrystalline nanofilms with fixed out-of-plane normal direction. The grain size and film thickness effects on both the elastic and plastic properties of the copper nanofilm were examined. It is shown from the simulation that the elastic and plastic properties (i.e., Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, biaxial yield stress, etc) of textured polycrystalline nanofilms depend on the grain size and the film thickness. As the grain size of the nanofilm become larger, the Young’s modulus and biaxial yield stress increase but the Poisson’s ratio decreases.… More >
