Abstract:
https://doi.org/10.1088/1402-4896/aab4e2 In the 50 years that succeeded Richard Feynman’s exposition of the idea that there is "plenty of room at the bottom" for manipulating individual atoms for the synthesis and manufacturing processing of materials, the materials-by-design paradigm is being developed gradually through synergistic integration of experimental material synthesis and characterization with predictive computational modeling and optimization.
Our group has recently published a paper describing a new method for micromechanical testing of cement paste. The paper was published in "Engineering Fracture Mechanics". Full paper can be accessed at:https://www.researchgate.net/publication/324510125_Combined_experimenta…
