Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of filler loading, geometry, dispersion and temperature on thermal conductivity of polymer nanocomposites
Addis Tessema,Dan Zhao,Joseph Moll,Shansan Xu,Ronggui Yang,Chen Li,Sanat K. Kumar,Addis Kidane +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the roles of nanoparticle geometry, loading, dispersion and temperature on the thermal conductivity of poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP) matrices are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of the dynamic stress–strain response of compressible polymeric foam using a non-parametric analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, high-tough polyurethane foam specimens were subjected to direct impact with different projectile velocities and quantified their deformation response with high speed stereo-photography together with 3D digital image correlation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design optimization of continuously and discretely graded foam materials for efficient energy absorption
Behrad Koohbor,Addis Kidane +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of density gradation on the load bearing and energy absorption characteristics of continuous graded and discretely layered foams is investigated by using stress-strain curves.
Journal ArticleDOI
A DIC-based study of in-plane mechanical response and fracture of orthotropic carbon fiber reinforced composite
TL;DR: In this article, the in-plane elastic properties and quasi-static fracture response of an orthotropic woven carbon fiber reinforced composite were investigated using 3D digital image correlation, and the effect of fiber angles on the crack extension direction was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the dynamically stored energy of cold work in pure single crystal and polycrystalline copper
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the thermo-mechanical response of single crystal and polycrystalline high purity copper at low and high strain rates, and found that the stored energy of cold work is relatively independent of the strain rate, with polycrystal storing more energy than the single crystal.
