Less can be more: Insights on the role of electrode microstructure in redox flow batteries from 2D direct numerical simulations
Simone Dussi, Chris H. Rycroft
Understanding how to structure a porous electrode to facilitate fluid, mass, and charge transport is key to enhance the performance of electrochemical devices such as fuel cells, e…
Sharing the load: stress redistribution governs fracture of polymer double networks
Justin Tauber, Lorenzo Rovigatti, Simone Dussi +1
The stress response of polymer double networks depends not only on the properties of the constituent networks, but also on the interactions arising between them. Here we demonstrat…
The role of temperature in the rigidity-controlled fracture of elastic networks
Justin Tauber, Aimée R. Kok, Jasper van der Gucht +1
We study the influence of thermal fluctuations on the fracture of elastic networks, via simulations of the uniaxial extension of central-force spring networks with varying rigidity…
Microscopic insights into the failure of elastic double networks
Justin Tauber, Simone Dussi, Jasper van der Gucht
The toughness of a polymer material can increase significantly if two networks are combined into one material. This toughening effect is a consequence of a transition from a brittl…
Disorder protects collagen networks from fracture
Federica Burla, Simone Dussi, Cristina Martinez-Torres +3
Collagen forms the structural scaffold of connective tissues in all mammals. Tissues are remarkably resistant against mechanical deformations because collagen molecules hierarchica…
Athermal Fracture of Elastic Networks: How Rigidity Challenges the Unavoidable Size-Induced Brittleness
Simone Dussi, Justin Tauber, Jasper van der Gucht
By performing extensive simulations with unprecedentedly large system sizes, we unveil how rigidity influences the fracture of disordered materials. We observe the largest damage i…
