Building on their work on the first-ever supranano magnesium alloy, a research team led by City University of Hong Kong ...

Dynamic instabilities and necking in ductile materials are critical phenomena that occur under high strain rates, often leading to failure in structural applications. These processes are ...

brittle (material that cracks or fractures easily without much stretching, such as glass) and ductile (material that can be drawn, stretched, or compressed into a deformed shape without breaking ...

They have less elastic strain than martensite and the carbide phase is more dispersed giving a more ductile material. Pearlite and bainite can also have their cementite morphology changed to this ...

UNM Engineers just patented a bendable, 3D-printable concrete material, that could change the game for construction 3D ...

The top photograph shows the fracture surface at the center region of the fracture surface and the lower macroscopic pictures show the "cup" section of the ductile cup-cone fracture surface. In this ...

Bendable, self-reinforced concrete for 3D printing has been patented by researchers from The University of New Mexico (UNM).

Professor Lu's research on stronger and more ductile alloys has been published in Science. Building on their groundbreaking ...

One theory that is used for the prediction of failure in a ductile material is the maximum shear stress theory (MSS). The basis of this theory is that failure will occur when the maximum shear stress ...
