The tensile ductility of cellular solids: the role of imperfections
(Elsevier, 2016-10-11)Metallic and polymeric foams typically possess a low tensile failure strain of a few percent despite the fact that the parent solid can have high ductility (10% or more). This is remarkable as foams are bending-dominated ... -
Thermally induced osteocyte damage initiates a remodelling signaling cascade
(Public Library of Science, 2015-03-18)Thermal elevations experienced by bone during orthopaedic procedures, such as cutting and drilling, exothermal reactions from bone cement, and thermal therapies such as tumor ablation, can result in thermal damage leading ... -
A thermodynamically motivated model for stress-fiber reorganization
(Springer Verlag, 2015-09-04)We present a model for stress-fiber reorganization and the associated contractility that includes both the kinetics of stress-fiber formation and dissociation as well as the kinetics of stress-fiber remodeling. These ... -
A three-scale finite element investigation into the effects of tissue mineralisation and lamellar organisation in human cortical and trabecular bone
(Elsevier, 2012-03-20)Bone is an exceptional material that is lightweight for efficient movement but also exhibits excellent strength and stiffness imparted by a composite material of organic proteins and mineral crystals that are intricately ... -
A through-process, thermomechanical model for predicting welding-induced microstructure evolution and post-weld high-temperature fatigue response
(Elsevier, 2018-02-11)This paper is concerned with the development of a modelling framework to predict the effects of welding and post-weld heat treatment on thereto-mechanical performance of welded material, as a step towards a design tool for ... -
Value of an RA qualification in continuous professional development and career progression
(Regulatory Affairs Professionals Society, 2021-04-26)Continuous professional development (CPD) is important for employee personal development and is of strategic value for organizations. Having qualified and knowledgeable personnel can help deploy strategy and yield competitive ...
