Deep Indentation of Soft Solids: A Limit State
Mohammad Shojaeifard, Zhenwei Ma, K Jimmy Hsia +2
Indentation is a practical technique for probing the mechanical properties of soft materials such as elastomers and gels when standard tests are difficult, destructive, or simply c…
The mechanical and electrochemical properties of polyaniline-coated carbon nanotube mat
Wei Tan, Joe C. Stallard, Changshin Jo +2
The measured capacitance, modulus and strength of carbon nanotube-polyaniline (CNT-PANI) composite electrodes render them promising candidates for structural energy storage devices…
The influence of strut waviness on the tensile response of lattice materials
P. E. Seiler, K. Li, V. S. Deshpande +1
Recent advances in additive manufacturing methods make it possible, for the first time, to manufacture complex micro-architectured solids that achieve desired stress versus strain…
Regulation of notch sensitivity of lattice materials by strut topology
K. Li, P. E. Seiler, V. S. Deshpande +1
We propose a local reinforcement technique for lattices in the vicinity of a stress-raiser such as a notch, in order to elevate the macroscopic strength and ductility. A spatially…
Mode II fracture of an MMA adhesive layer: theory versus experiment
Sina Askarinejad, Emilio Martínez-Pañeda, I. Ivan Cuesta +1
Thick adhesive layers have potential structural application in ship construction for the joining of a composite superstructure to a steel hull. The purpose of this study is to deve…
An assessment of the J-integral test for a metallic foam
H. C. Tankasala, T. Li, P. E. Seiler +2
An assessment is made of the J-integral test procedure for initial crack growth in an open-cell aluminium alloy foam by combining finite element (FE) simulations with experiment. I…
