The award, titled “CAREER: Multiscale Reduced Order Modeling and Design to Elucidate the Microstructure-Property-Performance Relationship of Hybrid Composite Materials,” will allow Zhang’s team at the ...

Computational homogenization has emerged as an indispensable tool for bridging the gap between the microscale heterogeneity of composite materials and their macroscopic behaviour. By employing ...

Aramid nanofibers (ANFs) have emerged as a pivotal class of nanomaterials, distinguished by their exceptional tensile strength, high modulus, thermal stability and chemical resilience. Derived from ...

At Belfast 30 July-4 August, there were more than 1,100 participants, with 500 oral (in up to 14 parallel sessions) and 300 poster presentations. The industry was well represented in the plenary and ...

Composite materials are engineered by fusing different materials, typically consisting of a matrix (a polymer, metal, or ceramic) and a reinforcement (such as fibers, particles, or flakes) that ...
