On the Thermomechanical Behavior of Laminated Composite Plates using different Micromechanical-based Models for Coefficients of Thermal Expansion (CTE) [PDF]
Journal of Applied and Computational MechanicsIn this paper, the influence of the Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) on the thermal stress analysis of laminated composite plates is explored. By introducing the undetermined integral terms in the displacement field, a new simple and efficient ...

Effects of noise on the internal resonance of a nonlinear oscillator [PDF]
, 2018 We numerically analyze the response to noise of a system formed by two coupled mechanical oscillators, one of them having Duffing and van der Pol nonlinearities, and being excited by a self-sustaining force proportional to its own velocity.

Micromechanics and dislocation theory in anisotropic elasticity [PDF]
Journal of Micromechanics and Molecular Physics, 2016 In this work, dislocation master-equations valid for anisotropic materials are derived in terms of kernel functions using the framework of micromechanics. The second derivative of the anisotropic Green tensor is calculated in the sense of generalized functions and decomposed into a sum of a [Formula: see text]-term plus a Dirac [Formula: see text ...

Micromechanical study of elastic moduli of loose granular materials [PDF]
, 2010 In micromechanics of the elastic behaviour of granular materials, the macro-scale continuum elastic moduli are expressed in terms of micro-scale parameters, such as coordination number (the average number of contacts per particle) and interparticle ...

Investigation of CNT Defects on Mechanical Behavior of Cross linked Epoxy based Nanocomposites by Molecular Dynamics [PDF]
International Journal of Advanced Design and Manufacturing Technology, 2016 Although carbon nanotubes (CNT) have been employed as reinforcements in nanocomposites, presence of nano scale defects such as Stone-Wales and vacancy defects in carbon nanotubes (CNT) weakens the mechanical properties of these materials.

Interfacial strength in thermoplastic composites - at last an industry friendly measurement method? [PDF]
, 2001 Many elegant techniques have been developed for the quantification of composite micro-mechanical parameters in recent years. Unfortunately, most of these techniques have found little enthusiastic support in the industrial product development environment,
