The reduced activation tempered martensitic steel Eurofer97 is a reference steel for a structural applica-tions in fusion reactors. The first-wall and blanket materials will be subjected to high thermal and neutron fluxes and will experience very complex, ...
The low-temperature properties of amorphous solids are widely believed to be controlled by the low-frequency quasilocalized modes. However, what governs their spatial structure and density is unclear. We study these questions numerically in very large syst ...
Porous cohesive materials can fail and collapse under compressive stresses. This mechanical behavior is generally referred to as anticrack and in snow, it is at the origin of catastrophic avalanches. In this study, we investigate how the microstructure of ...
In this work, a level-set based finite element method was used to numerically evaluate the mechanical behavior in a small deformation range of semi-solid materials with different microstructure configurations. For this purpose, a finite element model of th ...
Dolly ropes (DR) are used in beamtrawling and other types of fishing to protect the nets from being ripped by the sea bottom. They constitute an important source of plastic pollution in the regions where this type of fishing prevails. The aim of this proje ...
Lithium-ion batteries provide the power for portable electronics and found many other interesting applications. It is desirable to design batteries with high energy density and long cycle life. Silicon is among the highest Li-storing anode materials in bat ...
A growing number of studies focusing on microplastics (plastic particles smaller than 5 mm) show this issue affects all environmental matrices and compartments, and suspicions grow as to their toxicity. In this context, the Commission Internationale pour l ...

Circular economies produce virtually no waste, as materials are re-used and recycled continuously. It’s a dramatic shift from the current linear economy in which we take, make, consume and dispose – drawing regularly on natural resources to create products ...
The influence of partial crystallization on the evolution of the characteristic temperatures, i.e. of the glass transition and the onset of crystallization, the density, and the mechanical properties of the bulk metallic glass Pt(49.95)Si(6)AB(24)Ge(3)Cu(1 ...
The plastic flow of amorphous materials displays non-local effects, characterized by a cooperativity length scale xi. We argue that these effects enter in the more general description of surface phenomena near critical points. Using this approach, we obtai ...
