Mechanics of Adhered, Pressurized Graphene Blisters
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We study the mechanics of pressurized graphene membranes using an experimental configuration that allows the determination of the elasticity of graphene and the adhesion energy between a substrate and a graphene (or other ...
A Computational Model for Surface Welding in Covalent Adaptable Networks Using Finite Element Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Covalent adaptable network (CAN) polymers can rearrange their macromolecular network by bond exchange reactions (BERs), where an active unit attaches to and then replaces a unit in an existing bond and forms a new bond. ...
Level Set Topology Optimization of Printed Active Composites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Multimaterial polymer printers allow the placement of different material phases within a composite, where some or all of the materials may exhibit an active response. Utilizing the shape memory (SM) behavior of at least ...
Combined Level-Set-XFEM-Density Topology Optimization of Four-Dimensional Printed Structures Undergoing Large Deformation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Advancement of additive manufacturing is driving a need for design tools that exploit the increasing fabrication freedom. Multimaterial, three-dimensional (3D) printing allows for the fabrication of components from multiple ...
