Thermal transformations on microalloyed steels can produce multiphase microstructures with different amounts of ferrite, martensite, bainite and retained austenite. These different phases, with distinct morphologies, are ...

Thermal transformations on microalloyed steels can produce multiphase microstructures with different amounts of ferrite, martensite, bainite and retained austenite. These different phases, with distinct morphologies, are ...

This paper is focused on the analysis of the sensitivity of the thermomechanical response of a macroscopic elastic body to changes that occur at the microstructure. This problem is a key issue in material design. The ...

Driven by consumers' expectations and new knowledge, a paradigmatic shift is occurring in food engineering from the prior emphasis in processes and unit operations to the design of products that provide convenience, health ...

Natural (or biological) materials usually achieve outstanding mechanical performances. In particular, cancellous bone presents a high stiffness/strength to weight ratio, so its structure inspires the development of novel ...

Cancellous bone is a highly porous, heterogeneous, and anisotropic material which can be found at the epiphyses of long bones and in the vertebral bodies. The hierarchical architecture makes cancellous bone a prime example ...
