Effects of the Longitudinal Surface Roughness on Fiber Pull Out Behavior in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Resin Composites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface modifications are known as efficient technologies for advanced carbon fibers to achieve significant improvement of interface adhesion in composites, one of which is to increase the surface roughness in the fiber's ...
Elastic Theory of Nanomaterials Based on Surface Energy Density
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent investigations into surfaceenergy density of nanomaterials lead to a ripe chance to propose, within the framework of continuum mechanics, a new theory for nanomaterials based on surfaceenergy density. In contrast ...
Flaw Tolerance in a Viscoelastic Strip
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Loadbearing biological materials such as bone, teeth, and nacre have acquired some interesting mechanical properties through evolution, one of which is the tolerance of cracklike flaws incurred during tissue function, ...
Size-Dependent Elasticity of Nanoporous Materials Predicted by Surface Energy Density-Based Theory
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The size effect of nanoporous materials is generally believed to be caused by the large ratio of surface area to volume, so that it is also called surface effect. Based on a recently developed elastic theory, in which the ...
Dominant Influence of ENSO-Like and Global Sea Surface Temperature Patterns on Changes in Prevailing Boreal Summer Tropical Cyclone Tracks over the Western North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A conventional empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis is performed on summertime (May–October) western North Pacific (WNP) tropical cyclone (TC) track density anomalies during 1970–2012. The first leading EOF mode ...
A New Elastic Theory of Nanocomposites With Incoherent Interface Effect Based on Interface Energy Density
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A continuum theory of elasticity based on the concept of interface free energy density is proposed to account for the effect of incoherent interfaces in nano-phase reinforced composites. With the help of the lattice model, ...
Tunable Adhesion of a Bio-Inspired Micropillar Arrayed Surface Actuated by a Magnetic Field
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bio-inspired functional surfaces attract many research interests due to the promising applications. In this paper, tunable adhesion of a bio-inspired micropillar arrayed surface actuated by a magnetic field is investigated ...
Modulation of North Pacific and North Atlantic Tropical Cyclones by Tropical Transbasin Variability and ENSO during May–October
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
A Surface Energy Density-Based Theory of Nanoelastic Dynamics and Its Application in the Scattering of P-Wave by a Cylindrical Nanocavity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The scattering of elastic waves in nanoporous materials is inevitably influenced by the surface effect of nanopores. In order to investigate such a dynamic problem with surface effect of nanomaterials, a new theory of ...
Surface Effect in Nano-Scale Fretting Contact Problems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The fretting contact behavior of nanostructured materials is significantly influenced by the surface effect. A model of fretting contact between a nano-sized rigid cylindrical indenter and an elastic half-plane is established ...
