Yield stress materials fail when the imposed stress crosses a critical threshold. A well-known dynamical response to the applied stress is the phenomenon of creep where the cumulative deformation grows sublinearly with time, prior to…
Additive manufacture and rapid prototyping are versatile methods for the generation of lattice materials for applications in the creep regime. However, these techniques introduce defects that can degrade the macro-scopic creep strength. In…
Yield stress fluids display complex dynamics, in particular when driven into the transient regime between the solid and the flowing state. Inspired by creep experiments on dense amorphous materials, we implement mesocale elasto-plastic…
Hyperelastic materials models are well established to describe the non-linear stress-strain relations of elastomers. In this paper, a polyurethane adhesive is considered as an exemplary material and subjected to tensile, compressive and…
In this work we investigate creep flow of aqueous suspension of Laponite, a model soft glassy material, at different aging times and stresses. We observe that this system shows time - aging time - stress superposition over a range of aging…
This contribution studies a well-known failure criterion and its application to the life-time prediction of adhesive anchor systems under sustained load. The Monkman-Grant relation, which has previously been applied to a wide range of…
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) comprise a compositionally complex class of materials that in certain cases exhibit outstanding mechanical properties. While substantial progress has been made in understanding their phase stability,…
The creep behaviour of a creep-resistant AE42 magnesium alloy reinforced with Saffil short fibres and SiC particulates in various combinations has been examined in the longitudinal direction, i.e., the plane containing random fibre…
The creep behaviour and microstructural evolution of a Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu wt.% sample with a columnar microstructure have been investigated through in-situ creep testing under constant stress of 30 MPa at 298 K. This is important, as 298 K is…
For the adhesive contact of elastomers, we propose expressions to quantify the impact of viscoelastic response on effective adhesion energy as a function of contact edge velocity. The expressions we propose are simple analytical functionals…
A micromechanical model at the microscale within a crystal plasticity self-consistent model, is used to analyse loading histories in Type 316H stainless steel, common to structural components in high-temperature power plants. The study…
By adding minute concentrations of a high molecular weight polymer, liquid jets or bridges collapsing under the action of surface tension develop a characteristic shape of uniform threads connecting spherical fluid drops. In this paper,…
With the aim of understanding failure modes in the peeling of silicone-based adhesive joints and, in particular, the occurrence of adhesive or cohesive failure, an experimental campaign has been conducted by considering plastic substrates…
Applying constant tensile stress to a piece of amorphous solid results in a slow extension, followed by an eventual rapid mechanical collapse. This "creep" process is of paramount engineering concern, and as such was the subject of study in…
We present an experimental and theoretical study of the mechanics of an \emph{adhesive tape loop}, formed by bending a straight rectangular strip with adhesive properties, and prescribing an overlap between the two ends. For a given…
This paper presents an experimental investigation on pattern formation and evolution in bilayered tubular organs using swelling deformation of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and aims at supplying a thorough comparison with theoretical and…
Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) studies in poly[2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV) with varying conjugation, and polyethylene dioxythiophene complexed with polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT-PSS) in different…
We numerically investigate the athermal creep deformation of amorphous materials having a wide range of stability. The imposed shear stress serves as the control parameter, allowing us to examine the time-dependent transient response…
The analysis and understanding of creep damage of Grade 91 steel welded joints is an important topic in the energy industry. Creep tests on welded joints were carried out at 600$^{\circ}$C, 100MPa and then interrupted at 0%, 10%, 30%, 50%,…
Cohesive zone models do not consider the lateral contraction of adhesive layers under tensile loads. The constraint of the lateral contraction by the adherents which depends on the geometry of the adhesive layer has a major influence on the…
