Crashworthiness analysis of structures made from polymers
The numerical simulation of structural parts made from polymers is becoming increasingly important. Although highly sophisticated material laws are available in commercial finite element programs, there are still open questions, especially for crashworthiness analysis. In this paper, we restrict our attention to the explicit solver of LS-DYNA, see [1] and [2]. However, the results are transfera...
متن کاملQuinary lattice model of secondary structures of polymers
In the standard approach to lattice proteins the models based on nearest neighbor interaction are used. In this kind of models it is difficult to explain the existence of secondary structures — special preferred conformations of protein chains. In the present paper a new lattice model of proteins is proposed which is based on non-local cooperative interactions. In this model the energy of a con...
متن کاملStiff polymers, foams, and fiber networks.
We study the elasticity of fibrous materials composed of generalized stiff polymers. It is shown that, in contrast to cellular foam-like structures, affine strain fields are generically unstable. Instead, a subtle interplay between the architecture of the network and the elastic properties of its building blocks leads to intriguing mechanical properties with intermediate asymptotic scaling regi...
متن کاملIndeterminate Architecture : Scissor Pair Transformable Structures
Most traditional architectural theories and practices aim at designing unique, fixed and ideal solutions. The general belief is that the final shape of a building can be achieved by analyzing present situations, such as clients’ stated needs, demands and desires. Likewise, this approach is based on descriptions and assumptions, which consider future situations as certain, invariable and in a pa...
متن کاملWrithing Geometry of Stiff Polymers and Scattered Light
The geometry of a smooth line is characterized locally by its curvature and torsion, or globally by its writhe. In many situations of physical interest the line is, however, not smooth so that the classical Frenet description of the geometry breaks down everywhere. One example is a thermalized stiff polymer such as DNA, where the shape of the molecule is the integral of a Brownian process. In s...
