Universal inverse-cube thickness scaling of projectile penetration energy in ultrathin films
Alessio Zaccone, Tim W. Sirk
Ultrathin films of widely different materials exhibit a dramatic enhancement of projectile penetration resistance under high--velocity impact. Despite extensive simulations and exp…

Identifying non-affine softening modes in glassy polymer networks: A pathway to chemical design
Robert M. Elder, Alessio Zaccone, Timothy W. Sirk
Using molecular simulations and theory, we develop an explicit mapping of the contribution of molecular relaxation modes in glassy thermosets to the shear modulus, where the relaxa…
