Tensegrity structures and data-driven analysis for 3d cell mechanics
Ziran Zhou, Jacinto Ulloa, Guruswami Ravichandran +1
The cytoskeleton (CSK) plays an important role in many cell functions. Given the similarities between the mechanical behavior of tensegrity structures and the CSK, many studies hav…
An Internal Digital Image Correlation Technique for High-Strain Rate Dynamic Experiments
Barry P Lawlor, Vatsa Gandhi, Guruswami Ravichandran
Background: Full-field, quantitative visualization techniques, such as digital image correlation (DIC), have unlocked vast opportunities for experimental mechanics. However, DIC ha…
Full-Field Quantitative Visualization of Shock-Driven Pore Collapse and Failure Modes in PMMA
Barry P Lawlor, Vatsa Gandhi, Guruswami Ravichandran
The dynamic collapse of pores under shock loading is thought to be directly related to hot spot generation and material failure, which is critical to the performance of porous ener…
Toughening and asymmetry in peeling of heterogeneous adhesives
Shuman Xia, Laurent Ponson, Guruswami Ravichandran +1
The effective adhesive properties of heterogeneous thin films are characterized through a combined experimental and theoretical investigation. By bridging scales, we show how varia…
