Alkali-silica reaction products and cracks: X-ray micro-tomography-based analysis of their spatial-temporal evolution at a mesoscale

Mahdieh Shakoorioskooie, Michele Griffa, Andreas Leemann +2

In this study, we propose a laboratory-scale methodology, based on X-ray micro-tomography and caesium (Cs) as a contrast agent, to advance the understanding of cracking due to alka…

Unstable cracks trigger asymptotic rupture modes in bimaterial friction

H. Shlomai, D. S. Kammer, M. Adda-Bedia +2

The rupture of the interface joining two materials under frictional contact controls their macroscopic sliding. Interface rupture dynamics depend markedly on the mechanical propert…

Inverse Design of Discrete Mechanical Metamaterials

Henrik Ronellenfitsch, Norbert Stoop, Josephine Yu +2

Mechanical and phononic metamaterials exhibiting negative elastic moduli, gapped vibrational spectra, or topologically protected modes enable precise control of structural and acou…

Second order kinetic Kohn-Sham lattice model

Sergio Solorzano, Miller Mendoza, Hans Herrmann

In this work we introduce a new semi-implicit second order correction scheme to the kinetic Kohn-Sham lattice model. The new approach is validated by performing realistic exchange-…

Conformal Invariance of Graphene Sheets

I. Giordanelli, N. Posé, M. Mendoza +1

Suspended graphene sheets exhibit correlated random deformations that can be studied under the framework of rough surfaces with a Hurst (roughness) exponent . Here,…

The role of water in the behavior of wood

Dominique Derome, Ahmad Rafsanjani, Stefan Hering +7

Wood, due to its biological origin, has the capacity to interact with water. Sorption/desorption of moisture is accompanied with swelling/shrinkage and softening/hardening of its s…

Multiscale Modeling of Polymer Gels-Chemo-Electric Model versus Discrete Element Model

Thomas Wallmersperger, Falk K. Wittel, Michele D'Ottavio +1

Polyelectrolyte gels are a very attractive class of actuation materials with remarkable electronic and mechanical properties with a great similarity to biological contractile tissu…
