Abstract: The deformation, failure, and low-cycle fatigue life of SCS-6/Ti-15-3 composites are predicted using a coupled deformation and damage approach in the context of the analytical generalized method of cells (GMC) micromechanics ...

Abstract: An analytical model for the thermomechanical response of metal matrix composites was developed based on the method of cells micromechanics model and classical lamination theory. The inelastic behavior of the matrix material ...

Abstract: The polymer spray-on foam insulation used on NASA’s Space Shuttle external fuel tank is analyzed via the high-fidelity generalized method of cells micromechanical model. This model has been ...
