Modelling thermal effects in machining of carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites [PDF]
Machining-induced damage is commonly observed when manufacturing components based on carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites. Despite the importance of thermal effects in machining CFRPs, this problem has been poorly analyzed in the literature.

The role of cracks in the nonlinear interaction of a P-wave with an S-wave [PDF]
Cracks play a key role in our ability to produce oil and gas, from micro-scalecracks that enable permeability in tight formations to faults and fractures that compartmentalize reservoirs; our ability to sense and understand them remotely is thus of key ...

Strain‐based modeling and analysis for rock blasting and geomechanics applications
This paper introduces a novel strain‐based modeling approach for blasting and geomechanical applications, using measurable variables like particle velocity, strain, and displacement. By bypassing complex constitutive relations, strain‐based models capture critical blasting trends and full‐blast design parameters with minimal calibration.
