Abstract We provide a fundamental contact mechanics background to the interpretation of spherical indentation experiments performed in polycrystalline aggregates, single crystalline units, thin films, and minute material scales comprising an atomistic ensemble. A central issue under examination is the extraction

University of Zaragoza Abstract Standard simulation in classical mechanics is based on the use of two very different types of equations. The first one, of axiomatic character, is related to balance laws (momentum, mass, energy, …), whereas the second one

Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden Abstract: In material science modeling, phase field is the method of choice when morphology of the observed system is to be modeled. This full field approach is able to capture the microstructure of

Abstract:  Diamond-like Carbon (DLC) coatings have been recognized as one of the most valuable engineering materials for various industrial applications including manufacturing, transportation, biomedical and microelectronics. Among its many properties, DLC stands out for good frictional behaviour combined with high

Abstract: Univalent Na- and multivalent (Ca, Mg, Al)- ion batteries have recently emerged as potential candidates to replace Li-ion batteries in some applications. Their elemental natural abundance, homogeneous geographic distribution and high volumetric capacities in some cases, could be useful for this purpose.

Abstract: The next evolution for commercial nuclear reactors include the design of fast nuclear reactors as a sustainable nuclear energy production system. The operating conditions for this Gen IV reactors are much more aggressive than the ones for operating light

Ti-based materials are one of the most important materials used in biomedical engineering. Recently, commercially pure (CP) Ti has attracted significant attention of research community due to its full biocompatibility with human body, and there is an ongoing demand to

Traditional hard metals based on WC/Co system are currently the most important hard metals due to their high hardness, mechanical impact strength and wear resistance, which always take the largest share of the global cutting market. Interest in the field
