Micromechanics Investigation of Impact Loading on Ceramic/Composite Materials Supported by Non-Rigid Reinforcement
Abstract
Project Summary Project is to develop microscale mechanics of ceramics and composites undergoing shock loading. The focus is on microsecond processes and mechanics in materials during the propagation of stress. Effort will focus on computational methods, analyses to increase understanding of the micro-mechanics of stress strain interactions that develop between fiber and matrix, analyses to increase understanding of material interface coupling and the application of micromechanical computational simulations to gain insights into dynamic response of ceramic and composite materials.
