Hi all,
We've recently published a paper on
It deals with nanoindentation and numerical simulation of the interface zone in concrete repair systems.
Greetings
The attached notes are written for a course on plasticity. I will update new posts on my twitter account: https://twitter.com/zhigangsuo. Rheology is the science of deformation. This science poses a question for every material: given a history of stress, how do we find the history of strain?

3D computational model of graphene reinforced polymer composites is developed and applied to the analysis of damage and fracture mechanisms in the composites. The graphene/polymer interface properties are determined using the inverse modeling approach. The effect of composite structure, in particular, of the aspect ratio, shape, clustering, orientation and volume fraction of graphene platelets on the
mechanical behavior and damage mechanisms of nanocomposites are studied in computational experiments.
We've recently published an open access journal paper that looks at the mechanics of sutures used to repair severed tendons. A homogenization strategy is used to derive effective elastic properties for tendon fibrils and intracellular matrix. We have found that regions of high stress correlate with the regions of cell death (necrosis) that are sometimes observed in patients.
If this is of interest, please feel free to view the paper here.
