Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and mechanical properties of naturally occurring lightweight foam-filled cylinder - The peacock's tail coverts shaft and its components
TL;DR: It is revealed that the properties of feather shaft and its components have been optimized through various structural adaptations, and accordingly, provide useful inspiration for the development of high-performance synthetic foams and foam-filled materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser-induced shock compression of copper: Orientation and pressure decay effects
M. S. Schneider,Bimal K. Kad,Marc A. Meyers,Fabienne Grégori,Daniel H. Kalantar,Bruce Remington +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified mechanical threshold stress (MTS) model is applied to the two orientations, incorporating both slip and twinning, and the threshold pressure for twinning is calculated, considering the effect of shock heating.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alligator osteoderms: mechanical behavior and hierarchical structure.
TL;DR: Compression results indicate that the axial direction is the strongest (UTS ~67 MPa) and toughest (11 MJ/m(3)); this is the orientation in which they undergo the largest external compression forces from predator teeth.
Journal ArticleDOI
The development of residual stresses in Ti6Al4V-Al3Ti metal-intermetallic laminate (MIL) composites
TL;DR: In this article, two stress release mechanisms, creep and crack propagation, are proposed to explain the development of residual stress during cooling process in metal (Ti6Al4V)-intermetallic (Al3Ti) laminate composite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shock synthesis of silicides—I. experimentation and microstructural evolution
TL;DR: In this paper, Niobium and molybdenum silicides were synthesized by the passage of high-amplitude shock waves through elemental powder mixtures, which were generated by planar parallel impact of explosively-accelerated flyer plates on momentum-trapped capsules containing the powders.
