Sensitivity of cohesive zone models in CFRP delamination modeling

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics
[EN] Composite laminates such as carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are highly susceptible to delamination damage, which is considered one of the most important failure mechanisms in this type of material. In this work, a parametric study of one of the most used numerical methods to simulate this type of fracture is developed: the cohesive zone ...

High‐Throughput Digital Decoding of Vascular Heterogeneity in Patient‐Specific Tumor Microenvironments

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quantitative characterization of vascular heterogeneity in complex microphysiological systems (MPS), particularly within patient‐derived tumor microenvironments, remains a major challenge for scalable disease modeling and therapeutic evaluation.

Numerical implementation of a cohesive zone model for time and history dependent materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.A cohesive zone model approach is used in order to study the behaviour of cracks in elasto-plastic materials. The cohesive zone model being studied is time-

Structural cohesive element for the modelling of delamination in composite laminates without the cohesive zone limit

open access: yesEngineering Fracture Mechanics
Delamination is a critical mode of failure that occurs between plies in a composite laminate. The cohesive element, developed based on the cohesive zone model, is widely used for modeling delamination. However, standard cohesive elements suffer from a well-known limit on the mesh density-the element size must be much smaller than the cohesive zone size.

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Measuring and understanding biogenic influences upon cohesive sediment stability in intertidal systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Intertidal cohesive sediment systems are found throughout the world in areas of low hydrodynamic energy. These systems are ecologically and economically important but are under pressure from global warming, sea level rise and other anthropogenic ...

Gellan Gum Fluid Gel System for Controlled‐Delivery of Cytokine‐Licensed MSC‐EVs to Enhance Corneal Repair in Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gellan gum fluid gel (FG) enables controlled ocular delivery of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)‐derived extracellular vesicles (EV). Its shear‐thinning, solid‐liquid‐solid rheology ensures prolonged ocular retention. Sustained MSC‐EV release (∼18% in 6 hrs) supports effective EV ocular delivery.

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Numerical simulation of stable fatigue crack growth rate using a cohesive zone model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Predicting the remaining fatigue life of a structure with crack(s) is generally conducted by the fracture mechanics method. This method is aimed at predicting the crack growth and final fracture due to fluctuating loads.
