Porous NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) with ideal porosity and high compressive strength
as an implant material was fabricated by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) …

Localization of plastic strain, also known as necking, is an important failure mechanism of
metals. Although metals are widely used in engineering, it remains unclear how the necking …

We derive model equations for optical pulse propagation in a medium described by a two-
level Hamiltonian, without the use of the slowly varying envelope approximation. Assuming …

In this review, a critical look at the research progress of experimental solid mechanics in
China for the past years is presented. Issues are discussed of the discovery and …

The effect of strain rate on the tension behavior of filled silicone rubber was investigated
over a wide range of strain rates. A non-contact optical measurement technique was used to …

Moiré interferometry has been a valuable experimental technique for the understanding of
the mechanical behavior of materials and structures. Over the last decade less emphasis …

An experimental investigation of the compressive behavior of 64% porosity NiTi alloy was
undertaken in this study. Both quasi-static and low-frequency fatigue compressive tests were …

This work deals with the study of the local onset of microplasticity in a steel specimen under
tensile test through the use of a full-field strain measurement method at the micrometric …

The local microscopic deformation of polycrystalline low carbon steel under uniaxial tension
is measured through SEM moiré method. In order to produce high frequency gratings …

Ce travail de thèse présente la mise au point d'une méthodologie de mesure de champs de
déformations planes à l'échelle micrométrique. La mesure cinématique est faite par une …
