This study addresses the modelling of elastic bodies, particularly when the relaxed configuration is unknown or non-existent. We adopt the theory of initially stressed materials, incorporating the deformation gradient and stress state of…
We combine welding process modelling with deformation-diffusion-fracture (embrittlement) simulations to predict failures in hydrogen transport pipelines. The focus is on the structural integrity of seam welds, as these are often the…
Deformation of crystalline materials is an interesting example of complex system behaviour. Small samples typically exhibit a stochastic-like, irregular response to externally applied stresses, manifested as significant sample-to-sample…
A new empirical analytical approach is developed for predicting the stress concentration profile around an in-situ tow break in filament-wound composites. A shear-lag analysis is firstly performed to solve for the perturbational axial…
Entangled matter displays unusual and attractive properties and mechanisms: tensile strength, capabilities for assembly and disassembly, damage tolerance. While some of the attributes and mechanisms share some traits with traditional…
We propose an approach for exploiting machine learning to approximate electronic fields in crystalline solids subjected to deformation. Strain engineering is emerging as a widely used method for tuning the properties of materials, and this…
Fracture toughness $K_{IC}$ plays an important role in materials design. Along with numerous experimental methods to measure fracture toughness of materials, its understanding and theoretical prediction is very important. However,…
Recently, two-dimensional monolayer MoSi2N4 with hexagonal structure was successfully synthesized in experiment (Hong et al 2020 Science 369, 670). The fabricated monolayer MoSi2N4 is predicted to have excellent mechanical properties.…
We perform a first-principles computational tensile test on PuO$_{2}$ based on density-functional theory within local density approximation (LDA)+\emph{U} formalism to investigate its structural, mechanical, magnetic, and intrinsic bonding…

The strain-energy formulation of nonlinear elasticity can be extended to the case of significant compression by modulating suitable strain energy terms by a function of relative volume. For isotropic materials this can be accomplished by…
The experimental observations of many interaction-driven electronic phases in moir\'e superlattices have stimulated intense theoretical and experimental efforts to understand and engineer these correlated physics. Strain is a powerful tool…
Indentation tests are largely exploited in experiments to characterize the mechanical and fracture properties of the materials from the resulting crack patterns. This work proposes an efficient theoretical and computational framework, whose…
Anisotropic ideal strength is a fundamental and important plasticity parameter in scaling the intrinsic strength of strong crystalline materials, and is a potential descriptor in searching and designing novel hard/superhard materials.…

Density-functional theory forces, stresses and energies comprise a database from which the optimal parameters of a spline-based empirical potential combining Stillinger-Weber and modified embedded-atom forms are determined. Accuracy of the…
Numerically simulating deformations in thin elastic sheets is a challenging problem in computational mechanics due to destabilizing compressive stresses that result in wrinkling. Determining the location, structure, and evolution of…
