Nanocrystalline metals have been an area of great interest in recent years due to their enhanced characteristics. One of the most striking is implied by the Hall-Petch relation: with decreasing grain size the material becomes stronger. This promise is fulf ...
Aeroelastic tailoring requires structural compliance and thus often conflicts with stiffness requirements to carry prescribed aerodynamic loads. Recently however, the application of cellular structural concepts has suggested the potential to achieve compli ...
The deformation of copper with grain size less than 10 nm is investigated using a 2D continuum model incorporating atomistically-based constitutive relations. The local constitutive response of a series of symmetric and asymmetric tilt grain boundaries is ...
Optical and transmission electron microscopy have been used to investigate the microdeformation mechanisms in thin films of amorphous semi-aromatic polyamides with different chemical structures and chain lengths. In the chosen range of test temperatures (b ...
The following work deals with the characterisation of the behaviour of road bases granular material, made of tunnel excavation material and loaded by passing vehicle axles. This granular media, don't correspond generally to the standards demanded for the c ...
Constant strain-rate and creep tests have been performed on poly-quasicrystalline specimens of the icosahedral Al-Cu-Fe system. Three temperatures (870, 960 and 1000 K) have been investigated by creep for samples predeformed at constant strain-rate before ...
By means of a Gleeble machine, the flow stress at steady-state creep in an AA3103 aluminium alloy has been measured for temperatures and strain rates relevant for thermally induced deformations in DC casting. The strain rate has been determined by measurin ...
Transient creep experiments have been performed on poly-quasicrystalline specimens of the icosahedral Al-Cu-Fe phase. Three temperatures (870, 960 and 1000 K) have been selected in the ductile regime for creep stresses that range between 30 and 320 MPa. In ...
Synchrotron x-ray imaging and stress measurements of diamond-anvil cell gaskets revealed large elastic strains at the diamond tip at a pressure of 300 gigapascals. The diamond, generally considered a rigid body, bent 16 degrees over a distance of 300 micro ...
Traction tests on soft tissues show that the shape of the stress strain curves depends on the strain rate at which the tests are performed. Many of the constitutive models that have been proposed fail to properly consider the effect of the strain rate when ...
