Elastomeric composites with tuned electromagnetic characteristics
This paper presents a novel elastomeric composite that exhibits a deformation-induced change in chirality. Previous efforts primarily dealt with a coil array in air without chiral tuning. Here, a composite is created that consists of an array of parallel, metallic helices of the same handedness embedded in a polymer matrix. The chiral response of the composite depends on pitch, coil diameter, w...
متن کاملProgressive Damage Analysis of Laminated Composites using Continuum Damage Mechanics
In this paper, progressive damage and global failure of composite laminates under quasi-static, monotonic loading are investigated using 3D continuum damage mechanics. For this purpose, a finite element program has been developed using an eight-node 2D layered element including layer-wise plate theory. Damage analysis of a single orthotropic layer under various uniform in-plane and transverse l...
متن کاملThe Molecular Mechanics Model of Carbon Allotropes
Carbon can form numerous allotropes because of its valency. Graphene, carbon nanotubes,capped carbon nanotubes, buckyballs, and nanocones are well-known polymorphs of carbon.Remarkable mechanical properties of these carbon atoms have made them the subject of intenseresearch. Several studies have been conducted on carbon nanotubes or graphene. In the presentstudy, the molecular mechanics method ...
متن کاملMolecular Origins of Elastomeric Friction
Frictional properties of soft elastomers have been in question for over half of a century. Early studies on natural rubber originated for the sole purpose of tabulating properties for bulk consumer applications, such as viscoelastic adhesives, tires, and windshield wipers, to name a few. Empirical tabulation of frictional properties persisted until the early 1950’s, when Roth et al. and Thirion...
متن کاملPreparation and Characterization of Shape Memory Elastomeric Composites
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are a class of smart poly-meric materials that have the ability to " memorize " a permanent shape, be manipulated to retain or " fix " a temporary shape, and later recover to its original (permanent) shape upon a stimulus such as heat, electricity, or irradiation. 1-3 A large number of SMPs have been developed and utilized for actua-tors, deployable medical devices,...
