Abstract Due to excellent physical performance and potential application in the nanoscale fluid channel, 2D transition-metal dioxides and dichalcogenides with 1H phase are of great interest. Their mechanical property attracts much attention but the accurate evaluation still faces challenges because of the ultrasoft and ultrathin structure. In this work, we establish an analytical atom-based molecular mechanics model to predict the elastic modulus, Poisson’s ratio and shear modulus of the single-layer 2D transition-metal dioxides and dichalcogenides. The proposed method is validated through the calculation of the mechanical property of Molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂). The results indicate that the elastic… More >

Abstract The bamboo scrimber is an anisotropic material. The elastic constant values of the bamboo scrimber specimens measured by the dynamic and static methods are consistent, and the dynamic test method has the advantages of rapidity, simplicity, good repeatability, and high precision. Bamboo scrimber has strong potential as a building material, and its elastic constant is an important index to measure its mechanical properties. To quickly, simply, non-destructively, and accurately detect the elastic constant of the bamboo scrimber, they were dynamically tested by the free plate transient excitation method and cantilever plate torsional vibration method. The More >

Abstract A methodology for achieving the maximum bulk or shear modulus in an elastic composite composed of two isotropic phases with distinct Poisson’s ratios is proposed. A topology optimization algorithm is developed which is capable of nding microstructures with extreme properties very close to theoretical upper bounds. The effective mechanical properties of the designed composite are determined by a numerical homogenization technique. The sensitivities with respect to design variables are derived by simultaneously interpolating Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio using different parameters. The so-called solid isotropic material with penalization method is developed to establish the optimization… More >

Abstract In this paper, some remarks for more efficient analysis of two-dimensional elastostatic problems using the method of fundamental solutions are made. First, the effects of the distance between pseudo and main boundaries on the solution are investigated and by a numerical study a lower bound for the distance of each source point to the main boundary is suggested. In some cases, the resulting system of equations becomes ill-conditioned for which, the truncated singular value decomposition with a criterion based on the accuracy of the imposition of boundary conditions is used. Moreover, a procedure for normalizing More >
