The Effect of Aluminum Deformation Conditions on Microhardness and Indentation Size Effect Characteristics

open access: yesCrystals
The degree and speed of deformation are factors that influence microstructure and mechanical properties. Aluminum (99.5%) was used as the test material in this experiment.

Glissile Interphase Boundaries Enable Collective Phase Switching in Epitaxial Polar Oxides

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A triple point is identified in the phase diagram of low‐symmetry epitaxial BiFeO3 thin film along with an extended regime of phase competition associated with a flattened energy landscape. The electromechanical response is shown to be governed by correlated interphase‐boundary motion, including scale‐free avalanche dynamics characteristic of systems ...

Structure‐Guided Dynamical Mechanics in Bioinspired Double Twisted Laminated Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work explores a dynamic mechanistic study of crack propagation and puncture testing via real‐time monitoring of crack initiation, propagation, and termination through nature‐inspired single and double twisted architectures fabricated from cellulose nanocrystals.

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Indentation Size Effect for the Hardness of Refractory Carbides

open access: yesMATERIALS TRANSACTIONS, 2010
This study measured the Vickers hardness of the sintered refractory carbides B4C, Mo2C, NbC, TiC, V8C7 ,W 2C, WC, WC–SiC, and ZrC over a wide range of test forces between 0.49 and 196 N. The results showed an indentation size effect (ISE), with hardness values that increased with decreasing test force for the carbides.

Load Distributing Metamaterials Via Discrete Optimization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mechanical metamaterials are computationally optimized to homogenize transmitted forces by minimizing the spread of reaction forces. The resulting architectures transform localized loading into broader, more uniform force distributions and experimentally demonstrate robust load spreading under quasi‐static and impact loading.

Approaches to remove size effect due to indenter roundness in nano-indentation

open access: yes, 2012
The results of indentation are hard to interpret because the effects of indenter roundness and material's intrinsic properties coexist, especially when the indentation depth is within one hundred nanometers.The effect of indenter roundness is inevitable ...
