Abstract: Mechanical properties and damage evolution of short-fiber-reinforced metal matrix composites (MMC) are studied under a micromechanics model accounting for the history of cooling and thermal cycling. ...

Abstract: This article presents an overview of recent progress on magnetomechanical deformation and fracture of functional ferromagnetic materials. Following a brief introduction of the classical magnetoelasticity ...

Abstract: In this work, we carried out bulge test for quantifying the viscoelastic properties of poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) thin films with custom-developed apparatus. A viscoelastic bulge deformation (VBD) model based on the ...
