TL;DR: In this paper, the average inclusion strain in the matrix of a two-phase polymer is evaluated using elementary cubes, where the bulk sample is partitioned in small elementary cubes and the size of the elementary cubes of the partition is chosen to allow for the accurate representation of the material properties.

Compressive Creep of Dental Composites
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the combined Voight-Maxwell linear viscoelastic model to describe the compliance curves for P-10, Adaptic, and Silar composite materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic mechanical properties of highly loaded ferrite‐filled thermoplastic elastomer
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of surface treatment on the relaxation spectra has been clearly elucidated and quantitative values indicating the extent of polymer-filler interactions have been given, and various models have been tested for describing the viscoelastic behavior of such highly filled systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical response of 3D Insert® PCL to compression.
TL;DR: This study links the geometry, architecture and mechanical response to compression of 3D PCL scaffolds and shows the importance of controlling such parameters in the manufacturing process to obtain scaffolds that can be used in vitro or in vivo under reproducible conditions.

The Determination of the Elastic Field of an Ellipsoidal Inclusion, and Related Problems
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that to answer several questions of physical or engineering interest, it is necessary to know only the relatively simple elastic field inside the ellipsoid.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Phenomena of Rupture and Flow in Solids
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of surface scratches on the mechanical strength of solids, and some general conclusions were reached which appear to have a direct bearing on the problem of rupture, from an engineering standpoint, and also on the larger question of the nature of intermolecular cohesion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Yielding of steel sheets containing slits
TL;DR: In this article, a relation between extent of plastic yielding and external load applied was investigated, and panels containing internal and edge slits were loaded in tension and lengths of plastic zones were measured.
