Abstract: Models of creep rupture data for CF8C-Plus Austenitic steel are presented and compared to recently published models of the same data. Metrics for the accuracy of these models are compared and the reliability of extrapolations ...

Abstract: Topologically interlocked materials (TIMs) are a class of 2D mechanical crystals made by a structured assembly of an array of polyhedral elements. The monolayer assembly can resist transverse forces in the absence of ...

Abstract: High-frequency mechanical excitation has been shown to generate heat within composite energetic materials and even induce reactions in single energetic crystals embedded within an elastic binder. To further the understanding ...
