Multiscale Modeling of Fatigue and Fracture in Polycrystalline Metals, 3D Printed Metals, and Bio-inspired Materials
… at different length scales for a broad range of materials. The developed multiscale framework is utilized to study the details of fracture and fatigue for the rolling contact in rails, additively manufactured alloys, and bio-inspired hierarchical materials. Rolling contact fatigue (RCF) is a …

Multiscale Structures and Mechanics of Biomineralized Lattices in Hexactinellid sponges and Echinoderms
Biomineralized lattice materials with have high mineral contents (~ 99 wt%), usually "conceal" multiscale structural arrangements for unique mechanical or functional performance, such as the remarkable damage tolerance despite of the brittle nature of the constituents (e.g., biogenic silica and …
