A short overview of main repair techniques for wind turbine blades and the related problems
of computational mechanics is presented. Computational models of the leading edge …

Sintering, as a thermal process at elevated temperature below the melting point, is widely
used to bond contacting particles into engineering products such as ceramics, metals …

An alternative modelling framework is proposed for capturing the rate-dependency in the
loading and unloading (ie, with softening) deformation behaviour of a wide range of isotropic …

The focus of the present paper is the experimental investigation, the constitutive
representation and the numerical simulation of the amplitude dependence of filler-reinforced …

Progress in the design and modifications of dielectric elastomers has offered numerous
effective techniques to improve their electrically induced actuation response. The actuation …

The influence of the representative volume element (RVE) size (in terms of fiber packing and
number of fibers for a given fiber-volume fraction) on the residual stresses created during the …

A phenomenologically motivated small strain model to simulate the curing of thermosets has
been developed and discussed in a recently published paper (Hossain et al. in Comput …

In order to represent the chemical ageing behaviour of rubber under finite deformations a
three-dimensional theory is proposed. The fundamentals of this approach are different …

abstract The modeling of coupled heat generation, cure, evolution of mechanical properties,
and stress generation during the solidification of a polymer epoxy is investigated. Heat …

In this work, aiming at a UV-curing 3D printing process with liquid crystal display (LCD)
irradiation, a novel free-radical/cationic hybrid photosensitive resin was designed and …
