Journal ArticleDOI

Tensile behavior and structural characterization of pig dermis.

TL;DR: This study reveals a new aspect of the dermis: it is comprised of a tridimensional woven structure of collagen fibers, which evolves with deformation, and is intended to serve as a basis for structurally-based models of skin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and mechanical properties of Saxidomus purpuratus biological shells.

TL;DR: The distributions of strengths, cracking paths, and fracture surfaces indicate that the mechanical properties of the shell are anisotropic with a hierarchical nature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deformation and failure in extreme regimes by high-energy pulsed lasers: A review

TL;DR: The use of high-power pulsed lasers to probe the response of materials at pressures of hundreds of GPa up to several TPa, time durations of nanoseconds, and strain rates of 10 6 −10 1 ° ǫ s −1 is revealing novel mechanisms of plastic deformation, phase transformations, and even amorphization as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of stress state and microstructural parameters on impact damage of alumina-based ceramics

TL;DR: In this paper, a planar normal impact in a gas gun at a nominal pressure of 4.6GPa was performed on two grain sizes (4 and 24μm) and three compositions (99.4% purity, 85% purity and partially stabilized zirconia).
