Pisavadia, Harshil, Toussaint, Geneviève, Dolez, Patricia, Hogan, James D.
In this paper, a trilinear cohesive zone modeling approach available in the explicit nonlinear finite element software LS-DYNA is used to model the dynamic impact failure of an adhesive layer. This approach is an improvement over simpler cohesive zone models presented in the literature. The model...

Pisavadia, Harshil, Asad, Asad, Sameoto, Dan, Dolez, Patricia, Hogan, James D.
This work utilizes predictive modeling techniques to guide and inform metamaterial design for heat management solutions and thermal radiation control. Specifically, micro- and macro-scale polyethylene-based solutions are proposed for passive and active thermal camouflage. A micro-scale post...
