An ultrahigh-carbon steel was heat-treated to form an in situ composite consisting of a fine-
grained ferritic matrix with 34vol.% submicron spheroidized cementite particles. Volume …

An advanced numerical method is proposed to generate more realistic 3D meso-scale
models for concrete-like particle-reinforced composites with high volume fraction of particles …

Modelling the deformation and failure processes occurring in polymer bonded explosives
(PBX) and other energetic materials is of great importance for processing methods and …

A method and a program for the automatic reconstruction and generation of 3D
microstructures of composites on the basis of voxel array data have been developed and …

This study presents a surface sensing approach for detection of bottom-up cracking in
asphalt concrete (AC) pavements. The proposed method was based on the interpretation of …
