Enduring mechanical memory from the constitutive response of elastically recoverable nanostructured materials
Abhishek Gupta, Bhanugoban Maheswaran, Nicholas Jaegersberg +2
Mechanical memory and computing are gaining significant traction as means to augment traditional electronics for robust and energy efficient performance in extreme environments. Ho…
Intelligent Manufacturing Support: Specialized LLMs for Composite Material Processing and Equipment Operation
Gunnika Kapoor, Komal Chawla, Tirthankar Ghosal +6
Engineering educational curriculum and standards cover many material and manufacturing options. However, engineers and designers are often unfamiliar with certain composite materia…
Implicit Geometric Descriptor-Enabled ANN Framework for a Unified Structure-Property Relationship in Architected Nanofibrous Materials
Bhanugoban Maheswaran, Komal Chawla, Abhishek Gupta +1
Hierarchically architected nanofibrous materials, such as the vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) foams, draw their exceptional mechanical properties from the interplay of n…
Embracing Nonlinearity and Geometry: A dimensional analysis guided design of shock absorbing materials
Abhishek Gupta, Komal Chawla, Ramathasan Thevamaran
Protective applications require energy-absorbing materials that are soft and compressible enough to absorb kinetic energy from impacts, yet stiff enough to bear crushing loads. Ach…
