Topological Interlocking Structures (TIS) are assemblies of interlocking building blocks that hold together solely through contact and friction at the blocks' interfaces, and thus do not require any connective elements. This salient feature…
Topologically interlocked structures are architectured by fitting together blocks that are constrained geometrically through contact and friction by their neighboring blocks. As long as the frictional strength is nowhere exceeded, the…
Topologically Interlocked Structures (TIS) are structural assemblies that achieve stability and carrying capacity through the geometric arrangement of interlocking blocks, relying solely on normal and friction forces for load transfer.…
Topologically interlocked structures are assemblies of interlocking blocks that hold together solely through contact. Such structures have been shown to exhibit high strength, energy dissipation, and crack arrest properties. Recent studies…
Additively manufactured structures often exhibit a correlation between their mechanical properties, such as stiffness, strength, and porosity, and their wall thickness. This correlation stems from the interplay between the manufacturing…
Topologically interlocked material systems are two-dimensional assemblies of unit elements from which no element can be removed from the assembly without disassembly of the entire system. Consequently, such tile assemblies are able to carry…
Topologically interlocked materials and structures, which are assemblies of unbonded interlocking building blocks, are promising concepts for versatile structural applications. They have been shown to exhibit exceptional mechanical…
Topological interlocking assemblies (TIA) are arrangements of blocks such that rigid-body motions of the blocks are fully constrained by their neighbours and a fixed frame. In this work, we investigate tubular interlocking structures…
Topological Interlocking assemblies are arrangements of blocks kinematically constrained by a fixed frame, such that all rigid body motions of each block are constrained only by its permanent contact with other blocks and the frame. In the…
This study presents an extension of multiscale topology optimization by integrating both yield stress and local/global buckling considerations into the design process. Building upon established multiscale methodologies, we develop a new…
In this work, we report on the mechanical responses and fracture behavior of pristine and defected monolayer 1T-Titanium Disulfide using classical molecular dynamics simulation. We investigated the effect of temperature, strain rate and…
Covering elastic substrates with stiff biomimetic scales significantly alters the bending behavior via scales engagement. This engagement is the dominant source of nonlinearity in small deflection regime. As deformation proceeds, an…
Much work has been done in topology optimization of multiscale structures for maximum stiffness or minimum compliance design. Such approaches date back to the original homogenization-based work by Bends{\o}e and Kikuchi from 1988, which…
This work presents a rigorous mathematical formulation for topology optimization of a macrostructure undergoing ductile failure. The prediction of ductile solid materials which exhibit dominant plastic deformation is an intriguingly…
The mean square size of topologically interlocked molecules (TIMs) is presented as a linear combination of contributions from the backbone and subcomponents. Using scaling analyses and extensive molecular dynamics simulations of…
The estimation of the degree of risk of steel storage tanks from an industrial or nuclear power plant during an earthquake event is a very difficult task since the dynamic behaviour of the tank-liquid system is highly complex. The seismic…
A detailed reexamination of the (110) surface structure of rutile TiO2 has been carried out using first-principles total-energy methods. This investigation is in response to a recent high-precision LEED-IV measurement revealing certain…
We report on microscopic tight-binding modeling of surface states in Bi$_2$Se$_3$ three-dimensional topological insulator, based on a sp$^3$ Slater-Koster Hamiltonian, with parameters calculated from density functional theory. The effect of…
Introducing uniform magnetic order in two-dimensional topological insulators (2D TIs) by constructing heterostructures of TI and magnet is a promising way to realize the high-temperature Quantum Anomalous Hall effect. However, the…
Topology optimization (TO) is a well-established methodology for structural design under user-defined constraints, e.g. minimum volume and maximum stiffness. However, such methods have traditionally been applied to static, deterministic…
