Shockwave energy dissipation by mechanoresponsive materials
… are demanded since conventional impact absorbing materials do not provide sufficient shockwave attenuation. This research seeks to develop new approaches for efficient SWED in materials designed based on the availability of shock responsive chemical and physical reactions. A laser-induced …

Design and synthesis of mechanoresponsive materials and multivalent polymer-peptide conjugates
… their versatility and ability to yield diverse materials with desirable properties. Polymers that are functionalized intrinsically are made using several strategies including specially designed monomers and post polymerization functionalization. This thesis focuses on two examples of intrinsic …

Multiscale characterization of mechanochemical reactions in mechanophore-crosslinked polymers under shear loading
… productive mechanochemical response to polymeric materials. These mechanoresponsive materials possess the ability to respond to an applied global force through a local chemical reaction. In synthetic polymers, mechanochemical response is achieved through the use of a mechanophore, a single …
