Propagation of Floquet-Bloch shear waves in viscoelastic composites: analysis and comparison of interface/interphase models for imperfect bonding
Andrianov, Igor V.; Danishevskyy, Vladyslav V.; Topol, Heiko; Rogerson, Graham A. ( Springer-Verlag Wien , 2017 , Article)The phononic band structure of waves, which travel though composites, results from the geometric and mechanical properties of the materials and from the interaction of the different constituents. In this article, we study ... -
Shear wave propagation in layered composites with degraded matrices at locations of imperfect bonding.
Andrianov, Igor V.; Danishevskyy, Vladyslav V.; Topol, Heiko; Luyt, Adriaan S. ( Elsevier , 2018 , Article)Biodegradable polymers find an increasing number of applications in different fields of engineering and medicine due to their environmental-friendly degradation. The process of degradation of biodegradable polymer constituents ... -
Time-evolving collagen-like structural fibers in soft tissues: biaxial loading and spherical inflation
Topol, Heiko; Demirkoparan, Hasan; Pence, Thomas J.; Wineman, Alan ( Springer Netherlands , 2017 , Article)This work considers a previously developed constitutive theory for the time dependent mechanical response of fibrous soft tissue resulting from the time dependent remodeling of a collagen fiber network that is embedded in ...
