• Constitutive response and damage in solid propellants 

      Aravas, N.; Xu, F.; Sofronis, P.; Namazifard, A.; Fiedler, R. (2005)
      Solid propellants are composite materials with complex microstructure. In a generic form, the material consists of polymeric binder, ceramic oxidizer, and fuel particles (e.g. aluminum). Damage induced by severe stress and ...
    • Mechanics models for hydrogen embrittlement mechanisms 

      Liang, Y.; Sofronis, P.; Dodds Jr, R. H.; Aravas, N. (2005)
      Of the many suggestions of hydrogen-induced degradation of engineering materials, two mechanisms appear to be viable in non-hydride forming systems: hydrogen-enhanced localized plasticity (HELP) and hydrogeninduced decohesion. ...
