Since the 1960s, it has been a common practice worldwide to pursue a homogeneous
distribution of reinforcements within a matrix material, discontinuous metal matrix …

Fatigue damage is a concern in the engineering applications particularly for metal
structures. The design phase of a structure considers factors that can prevent or delay the …

An experimental approach based on Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is successfully applied
to predict the uniaxial stress-strain response of 304 stainless steel specimens subjected to …

To improve its anti-penetration performance under high-velocity impact loads, a simple and
efficient method according to the acoustic impedance matching principle is established to …

A novel laminated Ti–TiBw/Ti composites composed of Ti layers and TiB whisker reinforced
Ti (TiBw/Ti) composite layers were successfully fabricated by reaction hot-pressing. Herein …

Full-field deformation response of a copper bar impacted in a three point bending setup is
studied. Ultra-high speed photography (frame rate: 5× 10 6 fps) in conjunction with digital …

In this study, an experimental investigation is performed to observe the electromechanical
response of CB (carbon black)/Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) additive manufactured …

The dynamic fracture behavior of a prestressed orthogonally woven glass fiber-reinforced
composite material was experimentally investigated. A shock tube apparatus was used in …

In this paper, a Zr–5W alloy was fabricated via casting. In order to obtain the mechanical
properties of the material, quasi-static compression tests at room temperature and split …

A novel laminated Ti–TiBw/Ti composite containing Ti layers and TiBw/Ti composite layers
were successfully fabricated by the reaction hot-pressing technique. The TiB whiskers and …
