How to learn VECMA VVUQ Toolkit (VECMAtk) by yourself – VECMA Interactive Tutorials and Links

The interactive tutorials aim to provide a portable training environment without requiring the installation of the VECMAtk components. Specifically, these tutorials focus on trying out our the specific VECMAtk components: FabSim3, EasyVVUQ, QCG-PilotJob and EasyVVUQ-QCGPJ using example applications. These interactive tutorials offer unique opportunities to teach and learn independently on how to perform VVUQ analysis.…

Self-assembly and dispersion of graphene oxide structures in polymers

Graphene oxide is extremely versatile, with potential applications in many engineering fields. But for its effective use, control of its structure is essential. For instance, thin films and membranes require highly ordered nanoparticle arrangements; composites require dispersed nanoparticles, and hydrogels require 3D porous arrangements. However, the structure of graphene oxide can vary significantly depending on…
