Characterizing material 3D deformation and damage is a key challenge in mechanical research. Digital volume correlation (DVC), as a tool for quantifying the internal mechanical …
Whether it be the mechanical response of biomaterials or the crack propagation pathways within metal alloys, observing how damage occurs (both spatially and temporally) is critical …
The dynamic multi-scale deformation mechanism of polymer bonded energetic material is investigated. Samples made of polymer bonded sugar (a known simulate for polymer …
The microstructure of plastic bonded explosives (PBXs) is known to influence behavior during mechanical deformation, but characterizing the microstructure can be challenging …
Ultra-high-speed and high spatial resolution digital image correlation based experiments are performed to understand the sub grain level local failure mechanisms in polymer …
Thermomechanical, physical, and chemical processes in energetic materials (EMs) during manufacturing and processing or under external stimuli such as shock compression, involve …
Abstract Background The quality of Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) full-field displacement measurements depends directly on the characteristics of the X-ray Computed Tomography …
