With increasing number of loading cycles, stress-strain hysteresis loops of pseudoelasticity of a shape memory alloy vary continuously in experiments. To account for such characteristic variance observed during phase transformations, the effect of residual martensite is taken into account in a thermomechanical model b…

Low-stress creep measurements on a nematic liquid crystal polymer indicate that it is a viscoelastic solid, with a modulus of 100 dynes / cm 2 and a yield stress of 50 dynes / cm 2 . Both smectics and nematics are viscoelastic solids at very low stress levels, with a modulus that is related to their defect texture. At…

A self-consistent model for the constitutive behavior of polycrystalline barium titanate is presented. More generally, the model is valid for any ferroelectric material that changes its remanent polarization state primarily due to 180° switching, i.e. switching with no change in the remanent strain state. We will assu…

A novel mechanism for debonding at a weak interphase in an all‐oxide composite is introduced. This methodology involves the use of alumina platelets that have a diameter of 10–15 or 5–10 μm and a thickness of 1 μm. The platelets induce constrained sintering of the ceramic powder, which results in permanent porosity. F…
