Solid mechanics is the study of how continuous bodies—ranging from crystals and alloys to composites and biological tissues—respond to applied forces, temperature changes and evolving internal ...

In the field of experimental solid mechanics – a discipline that focuses on understanding and measuring the physical properties of different materials – researchers have traditionally relied on ...

Two RIKEN physicists have established new theoretical limits for experimentally measurable quantities by viewing solids through a lens of quantum geometry. Their results shed light both on the physics ...

In the not too distant future, an integrated multiscale analysis system for the design of a reliable engineering structure to sustain harsh environmental conditions within a predetermined lifetime may ...
