Continuous-fiber ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are of interest as hot-section components in gas turbine engines due to their refractoriness and low density relative to metallic alloys. In service, CMCs will be subjected to spatially inhomogeneous temper ...
The aim of the present thesis is to provide a numerical tool for the mechanical modeling of dynamic failure in concrete. This widely used construction material is characterized by a non-linear failure behavior, which is consequently difficult to describe w ...
Existing phenomenological constitutive models are unable to capture the full range of behaviors of ceramic composite laminates. To ameliorate this deficiency, we propose a new model based on the deformation theory of plasticity. The predictive capabilities ...
The effect of deformation temperature and strain rate on the dynamic recrystallisation (DRX) behaviour of X70 pipeline steel was investigated. DRX parameters such as the critical and peak stresses and strains as well as the deformation activation energy we ...
Transparent polymer interlayers are usually adopted to laminate glass members dealing with structural roles. Currently, they are also used to realize laminated adhesive connec-tions joining structural glass components (e.g. steel-to-glass connections). Res ...
We investigate the deployment of a thin elastic rod onto a rigid substrate and study the resulting coiling patterns. In our approach, we combine precision model experiments, scaling analyses, and computer simulations toward developing predictive understand ...
In the present research, the uniaxial compression behaviour of concrete under different strain rates is investigated. The investigation emphasises the influence of the strain rate on the development of inelastic deformations due to nonlinear creep for high ...

This contribution draws practical implications of a recently published estimation of the tensile ductility in laminated composites made of two ductile materials, typically metals or alloys, which harden as both the strain and the strain-rate increase. To t ...
We use the long-wavelength model of Hutchinson and Neale (1977) and Ghosh (1977) to estimate the uniform tensile elongation of two-phase composites deforming quasistatically according to the equistrain rule of mixtures, in which one phase is ductile while ...
The temperature-dependent flow behavior in nominally binary Al-Mg alloys measured recently (Jobba etal., 2015; Niewczas et al., 2015) is interpreted in the context of a parameter-free solute strengthening model. The recent measurements show consistently hi ...
