Strain-controlled criticality governs the nonlinear mechanics of fibre networks

, 2015
Disordered fibrous networks are ubiquitous in nature as major structural components of living cells and tissues. The mechanical stability of networks generally depends on the degree of connectivity: only when the average number of connections between ...

Determining stiffness modulus by means of different mechanical testing

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Abstract Many research on mechanistic testing have come to likely conclusion that different test setup results in different performance. The aim of this paper is to analyse the stiffness modulus resulting from three different test setups, namely; Monotonic Uniaxial Tension Test (MUTT), Monotonic Uniaxial Compression Test (MUCT), and ...

Phase Field Failure Modeling: Brittle‐Ductile Dual‐Phase Microstructures under Compressive Loading

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The approach by Amor and the approach by Miehe and Zhang for asymmetric damage behavior in the phase field method for fracture are compared regarding their fitness for microcrack‐based failure modeling. The comparison is performed for the case of a dual‐phase microstructure with a brittle and a ductile constituent.

Fatigue Crack Initiation and Growth in Nanocrystalline Ni at Multiple Length‐Scales

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Overview of miniaturized in situ SEM fatigue setup and resultant fatigue crack growth data for nanocrystalline Ni. The presented study focuses on the analysis of fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) in focused ion beam‐notched microcantilevers prepared from nanocrystalline (NC) Ni as a model material.

Shear-wave elastography for assessment of trapezius muscle stiffness: Reliability and association with low-level muscle activity.

PLoS ONE, 2020
PurposeShear-wave elastography has been recognized a useful tool for quantifying muscle stiffness, commonly reported as shear modulus, however the reports on reliability are often limited to test-retest correlations.

Stiffness modulus properties of hot mix asphalt containing waste engine oil [PDF]

, 2014
This study presents the effect of waste engine oil (WEO) on the mechanical properties of hot mix asphalt mixtures containing waste lubricating WEO. It was added into mixture at 0%, 3%, 5%, 7%, 10% and 15% by weight of binder. The mechanical properties of

High‐Temperature Nanoindentation of Metals: Assessing Thermal Drift, Frame Compliance, and Chemical Composition Effects on the Reported Mechanical Properties

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...
