  Impact of fillers (short glass fibers and rubber) on the hydrolysis-induced embrittlement of polyamide 6.6 

  LE GAC, Pierre-Yves; FAYOLLE, BRUNO (elsevier, 2018)

  This study deals with the durability of composites based on polyamide 6.6 (PA6.6) in a humid environment, and more especially, with the loss of fracture properties. It is known that PA6.6 undergoes plasticization in the ...

  How to model orthotropic materials by the Discrete Element Method (DEM): random sphere packing or regular cubic arrangement? 

  CURTI, Rémi; LORONG, Philippe; POT, Guillaume; GIRARDON, Stéphane (Springer, 2018)

  The discrete element method (DEM) is used for continuous material modeling. The method is based on discretizing mass material into small elements, usually spheres, which are linked to their neighbours through bonds. If DEM ...
