On the benefits of a stress criterion for the simulation of cup drawing process

Experimental and numerical cup drawing process has been investigated on 0.65 mm zinc sheets. The cup exhibits anisotropic earrings due to the material microstructure. The material formability is studied through elliptical bulge tests in the rolling, diagon ...

Screw dislocation structure and mobility in body centered cubic Fe predicted by a Gaussian Approximation Potential

William Curtin, Nicola Marzari, Francesco Maresca, Daniele Dragoni

The plastic flow behavior of bcc transition metals up to moderate temperatures is dominated by the thermally activated glide of screw dislocations, which in turn is determined by the atomic-scale screw dislocation core structure and the associated kink-pai ...

Reconsidering traditional timber joinery for sustainable structures

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

Timber construction plays an important role in architectural history, in modern construction methods and in sustainable design, for which wood-only joinery techniques have been used for centuries. Traditional joinery typologies are the product of successiv ...

In vitro and in vivo investigation of bisphosphonate-loaded hydroxyapatite particles for peri-implant bone augmentation

Dominique Pioletti, Ulrike Kettenberger

Locally applied bisphosphonates, such as Zoledronate, have been shown in several studies to inhibit peri-implant bone resorption and recently to enhance peri-implant bone formation. Studies have also demonstrated positive effects of hydroxyapatite particle ...
