Deformation Transitions and their Effects on the Long-term Performance of Polyethylene and its Pressure Pipe
DownloadFall 2021
Ductile-to-brittle (DB) transition is of tremendous importance for lifetime prediction of polyethylene (PE). Majority of current methods for determining critical stress for the DB transition of PE products use notched coupon specimens in order to shorten the test timeframe. However, those work...

The Kim and Chan experiment in 2004 gave the first experimental evidence of a possible supersolid state. Even though the origin of this state is not clear yet, several experimental and theoretical investigations suggest defects are responsible for this curious phase. We have used heat pulses and...
