Abstract:

The introduction of new products on the market is a time-consuming process, which typically includes both design and testing phases. Often, the experimental validation phase significantly affects the overall process time. Indeed, in many industrial sectors, the product development procedure is based on trial and error methodologies. Intermediate validation tests are performed on full-scale physical prototypes and, based on their outcome, the design is updated (in the case of a negative result) or validated (if the result is positive). The efficiency of this method in terms of time-resources is

Abstract:

Collagen is a key constituent for a large number of biological materials including bone, tendon, cartilage, skin and fish scales. Understanding the mechanical behavior of collagen's microscale structural components (fibers and fibrils) is therefore of utmost importance for fields such as biomimetics and biomedical engineering. However, the mechanics of collagen fibers and fibrils remain largely unexplored. The main research challenges are the small sample sizes (diameters less than 1 µm) and the need to maintain physiologically relevant conditions. In this work, a microscale mechanical testing

Abstract:

The effects of austenite grain size, level of undercooling, and strain and strain rate in compression on the austenite-to-ferrite transformation in a 0.1% C, 1.4% Mn steel were investigated. The influence of this transformation on the hot ductility of the steel in question was then examined. Samples were strained at rates from $ rm 3 times 10 sp{-4} s sp{-1}$ to $ rm 3 times 10 sp{-2} s sp{-1}$ after cooling to holding temperatures between the Ae$ sb3$ and the (undeformed) Ar$ sb3$ temperature.<br>Deformation was found to raise the effective Ar$ sb3$ temperature almost to the Ae$ sb3$, and to

Abstract:

The arctic is an appealing new ventures area for the oil and gas industry. However the climate is extremely demanding, and more technically challenging than any other environment. With design temperatures down to -60°C the ductile to brittle transition temperature (DBTT) is an important concern. The propagation of a brittle fracture in iron and steel requires much less energy than that associated with a ductile fracture. Once a material is cooled below the DBTT, it has a much greater tendency to shatter on impact instead of bending or deforming. The brittle-ductile behavior of BCC crystal

Abstract:

Plasticizers are ubiquitous environmental contaminants. Biodegradation of some of these chemicals, such as di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP or DOP), has been shown to lead to the accumulation of toxic metabolic breakdown products. As a result there is a desire to produce new, fully biodegradable, "green" plasticizers. With this goal in mind, a series of tests were developed to be used to measure the plasticizing efficiency of potential green plasticizers. The base resin selected for the study was poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC). The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the plasticized polymer was m

Abstract:

Finite Element modelling of bone fracture fixation systems allows computational investigation of the deformation response of the bone to load. Once validated, these models can be easily adapted to explore changes in design or configuration of a fixator. The deformation of the tissue within the fracture gap determines its healing and is often summarised as the stiffness of the construct. FE models capable of reproducing this behaviour would provide valuable insight into the healing potential of different fixation systems. Current model validation techniques lack depth in 6D load and deformation
