The efforts of MAdMatLab Group is currently focused in following areas:
Mechanics of interface/ interphase in carbon nanotube based composites.Application of micromechanical testing and numerical modelling to characterize the complex interfacial mechanics in CNT coated carbon fiber polymer multiscale and CNT based nano-composites.
|
Application of strain gradient crystal plasticity, discrete dislocation dynamics and molecular dynamics simulations to establish the structure property relationship in irradiated materials.
|
Size effects in plasticity.Application of strain gradient crystal plasticity and discrete dislocation dynamics to shed further light on experimentally observed plasticity size effects..
