Abstract: A nonlinear finite element modeling (FEM) scheme to analyze the combined effect of thermal and hygroscopic deformation is presented. The scheme employs the conventional moisture diffusion, heat ...

Abstract: We propose an advanced thermal-moisture analogy scheme to cope with the inherent limitations of the existing analogy schemes. The new scheme is based on the experimentally observed unique ...

Abstract: In this work, a new experimental methodology for analyzing the drop impact response is assessed using a pair of high-speed digital cameras and 3D digital image correlation software. Two different ...
