Hierarchical Material Optimization using Neural Networks
Presentation Materials | 01 Aug 2019 | Contributor(s): Miguel Arcilla Cuaycong, Valeria Grillo, Kristiaan William Hector, Pablo Daniel Zavattieri
Material structures that occur in nature are commonly made up of complex architectures arranged in a hierarchy. These hierarchical architectures are made up of different structural levels consisting of a unique arrangement of simple constituents, acting as building blocks, that satisfy a local...
Phase Transforming Cellular Material Simulator
Presentation Materials | 27 Aug 2018 | Contributor(s): Gavin Carter, Yunlan Zhang, Kristiaan William Hector, Pablo Daniel Zavattieri
Cellular material that exhibits phase transformations provide a variety of applications from the construction of medical casts to car bumpers. Materials with multiple phases are able to experience a multitude of loading and unloading forces. How the materials reacts is in part due to its...
Phase Transforming Cellular Materials (Spherical Shells)
Presentation Materials | 27 Aug 2018 | Contributor(s): Valeria Grillo, ASHLEY MIN, Gavin Carter, Yunlan Zhang, Kristiaan William Hector, David Restrepo Arango, Chidubem Nuela Enebechi, Pablo Daniel Zavattieri, Nilesh Mankame
“Phase transforming cellular materials (PXCMs) are a class of materials whose unit cells exhibit multiple configurations (metastable or bistable) [1]. The geometrical structure of the PXCM can change to increase the energy absorbed. The hysteretic nature of the PXCM makes the potential...
Development of a NanoHUB Tool: Mechanical Features of Crystalline Nano Cellulose
Presentation Materials | 07 Aug 2017 | Contributor(s): Joshua Leonardo, Mehdi Shishehbor, Pablo Daniel Zavattieri
In the past decade, many researchers have studied mechanical properties of polymer reinforced nanocomposites to understand and improve the performance of materials. In this research, we would develop a tool that would conduct a mechanical test on structures of a nanocomposite called Crystalline...
Modelling of Phase Transforming Cellular Material (PXCM)
Online Presentations | 28 Aug 2017 | Contributor(s): Chidubem Nuela Enebechi, Yunlan Zhang, David Restrepo Arango, Pablo Daniel Zavattieri, Nilesh Mankame
Phase transforming cellular materials (PXCMs) are a new class of materials that can go through large deformation and return to their original configuration. Currently, there are reliable cellular materials that can resist large deformation, for example, honey comb; however, when these materials...
