The resistance as well as strain hardening and softening properties of UHPFRC depend on the type of matrix and mainly on the initial fibre dosage and final fibre distribution and orientation in the cast element. According to the final fibre distribution an ...
The constant improvement of polymer composite materials has allowed their integration in many industrial fields where their mechanical and chemical properties are apparently attractive. Mixed metal-composite insulators are now increasingly used for high vo ...
Effects of non-uniform strains on tensile fracture of fiber-reinforced ceramic–matrix composites have not been satisfactorily explained by existing mechanics-based models. In this paper, we use an exact model of fiber fragmentation under global load sharin ...
The mechanical behavior of partially solidified Al-Cu alloys is investigated to assess the influence of mushy zone deformation on hot tearing. For this purpose, the results of a semi-solid tensile test conducted in situ using X-ray microtomography are comp ...
We propose a minimal model for the response of seedlings to pullout constraints. Central to our approach is the idea of capturing not only average mechanical properties but also the stochastic component of the uprooting process. Our model accounts on one h ...
Drying shrinkage is modeled at a microscale as a two-stage process of deformation and evacuation of a two-tube vessel system, based on porosimetry evolution. In the first stage water flow is driven by an external evaporation flux. Flow is associated with a ...
The optimization of the forming of ODS tubes is linked to the choice of an appropriated constitutive model for modeling the metal forming process. In the framework of a unified plastic constitutive theory, the strain-controlled cyclic characteristics of a ...
The resistance as well as strain hardening and softening properties of UHPFRC depend on the type of matrix and mainly on the fibre dosage and final distribution and orientation in the element. The strength and deformability distribution in a thin UHPFRC pa ...

Silicone rubber films with graded and localized mechanical properties are prepared using two-part polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomer, photoinhibitor compounds and conventional photolithography. First the un-cross-linked PDMS is mixed with benzophenone. ...
The first reported tensile semi-solid stress/strain data for as-cast magnesium alloy Mg Al3 Zn1 are provided. The results show that the maximum tensile stress at the solidus temperature (460 degrees C) was 13 MPa. Furthermore, this alloy has no ductility a ...
