Multi-scale progressive failure mechanism and mechanical properties of nanofibrous polyurea aerogels

Abstract

The nonlinear mechanical properties, deformation and failure mechanisms of polyurea aerogels (PUAs) were investigated using a multi-scale approach that combines nanoindentation, analytical and computational modeling.
