Introduction to modern computational methods for calculating thermodynamic, transport, and structural properties of materials. Computational chemistry, molecular simulation, and mesoscopic methods, ...
By combining the benefits of molecular shape change and intermolecular bonding forces with complex micromechanics, natual muscles can produce up to 33 N/cm 2 of force while contracting by about 30%.
We employ micromechanics to determine the properties of individual layers (laminae or plies) and then use only these layer properties to describe the (macroscopic) composite. These models apply to ...
The book features up-to-date coverage of hybrids of fibres and particles and explanation of failure criteria, and includes a comprehensive discussion on choice of fibres, matrices, manufacturing ...
It allows a glimpse inside the minds of those making the decisions, he says, laying bare the "ideological and administrative micromechanics" of the camps. Row 598 contains the case of a 38-year ...
