Hierarchical Material Optimization using Neural Networks
01 Aug 2019 | Presentation Materials | 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
27 Aug 2018 | Presentation Materials | 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)
27 Aug 2018 | Presentation Materials | 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...
