This study addresses the role of the “thickness effect” on damage propagation and cracks
growth inside the plain-woven carbon fiber composites under Iosipescu shear loading …

The mechanical behavior of coarse-and ultrafine-grained (CG/UFG) Zr–1Nb alloy
specimens under quasi-static tensile testing, the distribution of ε xx, ε yy, ε xy strains and the …

Microstructure and compression mechanical properties of a ternary TaTiZr alloy, after hot
isostatic pressing (HIP) at 1400° C, are reported. In the slow cooled condition, the alloy had …

ABSTRACT Thermomechanical behaviour of Gum Metal (Ti–23Nb–0.7 Ta–2.0 Zr–1.2 O,
at.%) under cyclic tension was experimentally investigated using infrared thermography and …

Multifunctional β-titanium alloy Gum Metal, characterized by a relatively low elastic modulus,
superelastic-like behavior and high strength, was subjected to cyclic tensile loadings. The …

The development of prosthesis implantation as a means to treat bone defects in the field of
orthopedic surgery is booming. Some materials with excellent biocompatibility are available …

The microstructural investigation, mechanical properties, and accumulation and dissipation
of energies of the magnesium alloy Mg-2.9 Y-1.3 Nd in the recrystallized state and after …

Bioinert metals are used for medical implants and in some industrial applications. This study
was performed to detect and analyze peculiarities that appear in the temperature …

A hyperelastic-viscoplastic model of Gum Metal is presented. The model is formulated in the
large strain framework. The free energy function is postulated consisting of the hyperelastic …

In recent decades, several novel Ti alloys have been developed in order to produce
improved alternatives to the conventional alloys used in the biomedical industry such as …
