Integrated mechanics for the passive damping of polymer-matrix composites and composite structures [PDF]
Some recent developments on integrated damping mechanics for unidirectional composites, laminates, and composite structures are reviewed. Simplified damping micromechanics relate the damping of on-axis and off-axis composites to constituent properties ...

Microstructure-based modeling of elastic functionally graded materials: One dimensional case
, 2008 Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are two-phase composites with continuously changing microstructure adapted to performance requirements. Traditionally, the overall behavior of FGMs has been determined using local averaging techniques or a given ...

Generalized Finite-volume Micromechanics Theory for Heterogeneous Materials [PDF]
, 2017 In the last decades, new generations of advanced materials have been designed and manufactured for specific applications. Micromechanics of heterogeneous materials plays an important role in the development of these materials, enabling efficient analyses of composite materials with complex geometries, circumventing the traditional trial-and-error ...

Work fluctuations in a nonlinear micromechanical oscillator driven far from thermal equilibrium
, 2015 We explore fluctuation relations in a periodically driven micromechanical torsional oscillator. In the linear regime where the modulation is weak, we verify that the ratio of the work variance to the mean work is constant, consistent with conventional ...

Influence of Temperature on the Reliability of Graphene‐Based Ozone Sensors
Small, EarlyView.The reliability and stability of inkjet‐printed graphene flake sensors are evaluated. Stress assessments take place in ozone‐rich environments and at elevated temperatures, with the observation of a change in resistance. Surface‐sensitive techniques serve to investigate the failure and degradation mechanisms of printed graphene.
