In the field of nanoconfined fluids, there are striking examples of deformation/transport coupling in which mechanical solicitation of the confining host and dynamics of the confined fluid impact each other. While this intriguing behavior…
Quantifying the relationship between geometric descriptors of microstructure and effective properties like permeability is essential for understanding and improving the behavior of porous materials. In this paper, we employ a previously…
The mechanical characteristics of a monolithic (non-porous) crystalline or amorphous material are described by a well-defined set of quantities. It is possible to change the mechanical properties by introducing porosity into this material:…
This study explores the role that the microstructure plays in determining the macroscopic static response of porous elastic continua and exposes the occurrence of position-dependent nonlocal effects that are strictly correlated to the…
Homogenization is a technique for the analysis of complex materials by replacing them with equivalent homogeneous materials that exhibit similar properties. By constructing a three-dimensional (3D) porous material model and employing…
Many emerging applications in microscale engineering rely on the fabrication of three-dimensional architectures in inorganic materials. Small-scale additive manufacturing (AM) aspires to provide flexible and facile access to these…
Media and membranes composed of micrometric-diameter pores are well known in academia and industry to be capable of efficacious nanofiltration of fluids once the pore inner surfaces are coated with nanostructures. Given the large mismatch…
Size effects have been predicted at the micro- or nano-scale for porous ductile materials from Molecular Dynamics, Discrete Dislocation Dynamics and Continuum Mechanics numerical simulations, as a consequence of Geometrically Necessary…
The influence of the microstructural geometry on the behavior of porous media is widely recognized, particularly in geomaterials, but also in biomaterials and engineered materials. Recent advances in imaging techniques, such as X-ray…
Liquid adsorption in nanoporous materials induces their deformation due to strong capillary forces. The linear relationship between the liquid pressure and the solid strain (pore-load modulus) provides an experimental technique to determine…
We use molecular simulations to explore how sample dimensions and interfacial properties impact some generic aspects of the mechanical and structural behavior of nanoconfined materials. Specifically, we calculate the strain-dependent…
The mechanical behavior of porous materials depends strongly on porosity and pore geometry, but also on morphological parameters characterizing the spatial arrangement of pores. Here we use bond-based peridynamics to study effects of…
Nanoscopic pores are used in various systems to attract nanoparticles. In general the behaviour is a result of two types of interactions: the material specific affinity and the solvent-mediated influence also called the depletion force. The…
We present a theoretical and computational model for the behavior of a porous solid undergoing two interdependent processes, the finite deformation of a solid and species migration through the solid, which are distinct in bulk and on…
We attempt to formalise the relationship between the poroelasticity theory and the effective medium theory of micromechanics. The assumptions of these two approaches vary, but both can be linked by considering the undrained response of a…
Liquid-metal infiltrated Cu30Mo70 (weigth percentage) is subjected to severe plastic deformation using high pressure torsion. The initially equiaxed dual phase structure is gradually transformed into a lamellar structure composed of…
To model and quantify the variability in plasticity and failure of additively manufactured metals due to imperfections in their microstructure, we have developed uncertainty quantification methodology based on pseudo marginal likelihood and…
Some of the synthesis methods and physical properties of iron-oxide based magnetic nanoparticles such as Fe3-xO4 and CoxFe3-xO4 are reviewed because of their interest in health, environmental applications, and ultra-high-density magnetic…
Understanding how pore structure influences flow and transport behaviour in granular materials is essential for addressing a wide range of geotechnical, hydraulic, and environmental challenges. These processes are largely shaped by the…
The conformational behavior of a polymer in a critical binary solvent confined in a porous medium is studied. The size of the polymer in bulk, which is mainly governed by the correlation length of the solvent density fluctuations, depends…
