Belt Layer Effects on Non-pneumatic Tire Performance by Finite Element Analysis
One of the most advantageous tires recently receives attention for development is the non-pneumatic tire (NPT). It is developed for dangerous... -
Isotropic Elasticity
Balance laws are equally applicable to all materials. No specification of material has been done yet. Thus, physics requires the development of... -
Model-based modular hydrogel design
Hydrogels — water-insoluble, three-dimensional networks of polymer chains — are used as biomaterials in various biomedical and clinical applications....

Effects on Spoke Structure of Non-Pneumatic Tires by Finite Element Analysis
Cause of the non-pneumatic tires (NPTs) which are recent manufacturing have a higher weight that increases energy consumption for driving vehicles...

Large deflection of a bilayer soft strip due to incompatibility of isotropic volumic expansion
Since the traditional bending theory of bilayers was mainly for linear elastic materials with the assumption of infinitesimal deformation, here we...

The potential of rubber materials as an inhibitor to suppress jet formation of the shaped charge warhead
In this paper, as a measure to protect shaped charge, NBR whch is a hyperelastic material, was considered as a target material into which a shaped...

Constitutive Modeling of the Dynamic Behavior of Cork Material
In this work, compression tests have been carried out at different strain rate, from 10−3 to approximately 103 s−1, on agglomerated cork material.... -
Invariance Aspects of F = FeFi Representations in Coupled-Field Problems
In multi-field problems, the free energy contributions of different fields are coupled. For the kinematic of deformation, explicit assumptions on the... -
Prediction of Nonlinear Stress-strain Behaviors with Artificial Neural Networks and Its Application for Automotive Rubber Parts
This study presents a new method to predict the stress-strain curves of rubber materials using artificial neural networks in order to reduce the...

Combination of Shape-Memory Polymers and Metal Alloys
Stimuli-responsive metal alloys and polymers considerably varied their properties like mechanical, optical, electrical properties, and shape upon... -
Optical and Nanomechanical Characteristics of Multilayer Structure Derived from Color-changing Beetle Popillia Indgigonacea Motsch
The architecture of multilayer acting in colorful appearance has been widely reported. In spite of this, it is interesting that dense multilayer in...
