We use Shear Transformation Zone (STZ) theory to develop a deformation map for amorphous solids as a function of the imposed shear rate and initial material preparation. The STZ formulation incorporates recent simulation results [Haxton and…
We study the effects of the uniaxial tensile strain and shear deformation as well as their combinations on the electronic properties of single-layer black phosphorene. The evolutions of the strain-dependent band gap are obtained using the…
A novel approach for modeling Dark Count Rate (DCR) drift in Single-Photon Avalanche Diodes (SPADs) is proposed based on Hot-Carrier Degradation (HCD) inducing silicon-hydrogen bond dissociation at the Si/SiO2 interface. The energy and the…
The random process theory (RPT) has been widely applied to predict the joint probability distribution functions (PDFs) of asperity heights and curvatures of rough surfaces. A check of the predictions of RPT against the actual statistics of…
Superelastic NiTi 1 shape memory alloy (SMA) wire was subjected to thermomechanical loading tests in tension to evaluate stress and temperature conditions under which the wire deforms plastically. Although the alloy demonstrated a very high…
Rubber wear results from the removal of small (micrometer-sized) rubber particles through crack propagation. In this study, we investigate the wear behavior of Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR) and Natural Rubber (NR) sliding on two different…
In this paper, we present a comprehensive analysis of the contact mechanics associated with a micron-sized sliding asperity, which plays a crucial role in the abrasive wear processes. Utilising nanoscratch testing, we experimentally…
High-pressure torsion (HPT) can facilitate phase transformations in titanium dioxide (TiO2) and stabilize its high-pressure columbite phase, as an active photocatalyst, by shear straining under high pressure. This study aims to understand…
The shear-transformation-zone (STZ) theory of plastic deformation predicts that sufficiently soft, non-crystalline solids are linearly unstable against forming periodic arrays of microstructural shear bands. A limited nonlinear analysis…
Understanding the contact between rough surfaces undergoing plastic deformation is crucial in many applications. We study the effect of plastic deformation on the surface separation between two solids with random roughness. Assuming a…

Strain engineering is a versatile method to boost the carrier mobility of two-dimensional materials-based electronics and optoelectronic devices. In addition, strain is ubiquitous during device fabrication via material deposition on a…
We compare the dispersion relations for spinodally dewetting thin liquid films for increasing magnitude of interfacial slip length in the lubrication limit. While the shape of the dispersion relation, in particular the position of the…
Plastic work partitioning was investigated in extruded AZ31B magnesium alloy under loading orientations promoting slip- or twinning-dominated deformation. Slip-dominated deformation exhibits stable plastic flow with approximately 50$\%$ of…
Superfunctional materials are defined as materials with specific properties being superior to the functions of engineering materials. Numerous studies introduced severe plastic deformation (SPD) as an effective process to improve the…
Bicontinuous nanoporous materials possess remarkable mechanical properties, such as higher specific strength and lower specific modulus compared to fully dense materials combined with low densities and high specific surface areas.…
Strain in a material induces shifts in vibrational frequencies, which is a probe of the nature of the vibrations and interatomic potentials, and can be used to map local stress/strain distributions via Raman microscopy. This method is…
We determine the band structure of graphene under strain using density functional calculations. The ab-initio band strucure is then used to extract the best fit to the tight-binding hopping parameters used in a recent microscopic model of…
The modelling of the adherence energy during peeling of Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSA) has received much attention since the 1950's, uncovering several factors that aim at explaining their high adherence on most substrates, such as the…
Nanoindentation is a widely used method for sensitive exploration of the mechanical properties of micromechanical systems. We derived an empirical analysis technique to extract stress-strain field gradient and divergence representations…
