DISCLAIMER: The Graph Chatbot is not programmed to provide explicit or categorical answers to your questions. Rather, it transforms your questions into API requests that are distributed across the various IT services officially administered by EPFL. Its purpose is solely to collect and recommend relevant references to content that you can explore to help you answer your questions.
Explores relative deformation in 3D through strain matrix and displacement gradient, emphasizing constraints, stress-strain relations, and equilibrium equations.
Delves into the mechanical properties and strengthening mechanisms of alloys, including dislocations, slip systems, and various strengthening mechanisms.
Explores metal plasticity mechanisms, including hardening by solid solution and precipitation, dislocation forests, and polymer behavior in relation to temperature and deformation speed.
Explores deformation and rupture of materials at low temperature, focusing on crystallographic relationships, mechanical twins, and twinning mechanisms.
Explores models for plastic deformation in glassy and semi-crystalline polymers, including the Eyring model and the influence of secondary transitions.
Covers advanced high strength steels, focusing on TRIP/TWIP effects, Mn content influence, transformation behavior, stacking fault energy, mechanical properties, and applications in car body structures.
