An adaptive finite element approximation of a variational model of brittle fracture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The energy of the Francfort–Marigo model of brittle fracture can be approximated, in the sense of Gamma-convergence, by the Ambrosio–Tortorelli functional.

Controlling Grain Growth in Powder Bed Fusion of Yttria‐Stabilized Zirconia Using Femtosecond Lasers: Challenges and Methodological Insights

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Binder‐free laser powder bed fusion of 8YSZ with a femtosecond laser is used to map process windows linking scan strategy, heat accumulation, and grain growth. Time‐resolved thermography and simulations reveal thermal regimes that enable continuous, vitrified, and fine‐grained 8YSZ surface layers without absorptive additives and demonstrate ...

From spinodal decomposition to alternating layered structure within single crystals of biogenic magnesium calcite

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Several fields are interested in the mechanism by which organisms control crystallisation at ambient temperatures. Here, the authors evaluate the mechanism of magnesium rich nanoprecipitate layer formation in the calcite crystals of the brittle star, via

Simulation‐Based Analysis of Insert Pull‐Out in Nickel‐Polyurethane Hybrid Foams Using CT‐Derived Geometries

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
CT‐based finite element simulations combined with in situ X‐ray computed tomography are used to analyze insert pull‐out in nickel‐coated polymer foams. Despite variations in material parameters, deformation consistently concentrates within a narrow annular region around the insert.

Influence of TiC and TiN Ceramic Reinforcements on the Microstructure, Thermal Expansion Behavior, and Tensile Properties of Invar 36 Manufactured by Laser Powder Bed Fusion

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines Invar composites reinforced with titanium carbide (TiC) and titanium nitride (TiN) using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). It presents the influence of reinforcements on microstructure, tensile properties, and thermal expansion. Results show that TiC effectively strengthens Invar while maintaining low thermal expansion, whereas TiN ...

A biofilm micro-community dominated by the diatom Campylodiscus neofastuosus (Surirellales) binds detritus used as food source for rare brittle stars endemic to two Bahamian caves [PDF]

open access: yesSubterranean Biology
The rare endemic brittle star Amphicutis stygobita (Echinodermata: Ophiuroidea: Amphilepididae) is found in Bernier Cave on San Salvador Island in The Bahamas. We report here on the diatom-rich detritus on which the brittle star feeds.

Rapidly Solidified High‐Strength Invar 36 Prepared by Planar‐Flow Melt Spinning

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The Invar 36 alloy was rapidly solidified using the planar‐flow melt‐spinning technique. Ribbon samples with thicknesses ranging from 20 to 160 mm were produced. As the grain size of the ribbon decreased to sub‐micron levels, the hardness increased by more than 2 times.

The skeletal proteome of the sea star Patiria miniata and evolution of biomineralization in echinoderms

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2017
Background Proteomic studies of skeletal proteins have revealed large, complex mixtures of proteins occluded within the mineral. Many skeletal proteomes contain rapidly evolving proteins with repetitive domains, further complicating our understanding. In
