Equi-biaxial tension tests on magneto-rheological elastomers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A bespoke test rig has been designed to facilitate testing of magneto-rheological (MR) elastomers (MREs) under equi-biaxial tension using a standard universal test machine. Tests were performed up to 10% strain on both isotropic and anisotropic MREs with

Understanding the viscoelastic behavior of collagen matrices through relaxation time distribution spectrum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This study aims to provide understanding of the macroscopic viscoelastic behavior of collagen matrices through studying the relaxation time distribution spectrum obtained from stress relaxation tests.

Development of biaxial tensile testing for porous polymer membranes

open access: yesPolymer Testing, 2022
Porous polymer membranes are typically polymeric materials that consist of many pores and complex network structures. As a result of these features, the membranes sometimes undergo anisotropic elastoplastic deformation.

Eshelby inclusions in granular matter: theory and simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present a numerical implementation of an active inclusion in a granular material submitted to a biaxial test. We discuss the dependence of the response to this perturbation on two parameters: the intra-granular friction coefficient on one hand, the ...

Constitutive modeling of the anisotropic behavior of Mullins softened filled rubbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Original constitutive modeling is proposed for filled rubber materials in order to capture the anisotropic softened behavior induced by general non-proportional pre-loading histo-ries.

Energy dissipation and equivalent damping of RC columns subjected to biaxial bending: an investigation based in experimental results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The cyclic behaviour of reinforced concrete columns have been object of many experimental studies in the recent past years. However, the experimental studies on the biaxial response of RC columns are still limited.

Parameter Variation in Planetary Ball Milling of Titanium Aluminide Powder in XHV‐Adequate Atmosphere

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effects of milling parameters, including rotational speed, milling duration, and ball‐to‐powder ratio, on TiAl particle size and morphology in an XHV‐equivalent atmosphere. The creation of oxide‐free surfaces enhances the mechanical properties of green bodies.

Non-local energy based fatigue life calculation method under multiaxial variable amplitude loadings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Reliable design of industrial components against high cycle multiaxial fatigue requires a model capable of predicting both stress gradient and load type effects. Indeed, taking into account gradient effects is of prior importance for the applicability of

Mechanics of polycarbonate in biaxial impact loading

open access: yesInternational Journal of Solids and Structures, 2016
We investigate the deformation and failure behavior of Polycarbonate (PC) under low-velocity biaxial impact loading. For this, we have conducted experiments and numerical simulations of the falling weight impact test (FWT) for different testing configurations.

From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.
