Failure theories are used to predict when a material will fail due to static loading. They do this by comparing the stress state at a point with material properties that can be easily determined from ...

This work underscores the importance of stress/strain engineering in nanosheet FETs and provides a detailed explanation of the stress fields within a 3-stack Si and SiGe channel nanosheet FETs. The ...

An international team of researchers have observed a phenomenon called virtual melting in colloidal crystals. They studied how it helps enable changes from one crystalline structure to another ...

Some of the effects that therapeutic ultrasound has in medicine and biology may be associated with steady oscillations of gas bubbles in liquid, very close to tissue surface. The bubble oscillations ...

One of the most important nonlinear rheological phenomena in flowing polymeric materials is the stress overshoot under start-up shear at sufficiently high shear rates γ̇, i.e., γ̇ > τd–1, where τd is ...

The plastic responses (the plastic shear strain, γp γ p, and the plastic volumetric strain, εp v ε v p) are controlled by the yield surface and the flow rule. The yield surface of UBCSAND model is ...

The strain hardening behavior of an AISI 304 stainless steel at different temperatures was investigated in this work. Specimens were tensile tested up to rupture at temperatures of 25, 50, 75, 100, ...

Using molecular dynamics simulation, we study shear banding of entangled polymer melts under a steady shear. The steady shear stress vs shear rate curve exhibits a plateau spanning nearly two decades ...

BACKGROUND: Mechanical cues exerted by shear stress from blood flow remodel an initial vascular plexus into a ramifying array of large and small vessels. Hemodynamic forces trigger changes in ...

Converts CalculiX ASCII .frd-file to view and postprocess analysis results in Paraview. Generates von Mises and principal components for stress and strain tensors. Creates separate file for each ...
