Explores plasticity in single crystals, including mechanisms of plastic flow and strain hardening, with a focus on dislocation behavior and geometrically necessary dislocations.
Delves into the mechanical properties and strengthening mechanisms of alloys, including dislocations, slip systems, and various strengthening mechanisms.
Explores assembly techniques in mechanical systems, covering bolted joints, brazing, welding, and gluing, as well as the principles of tightening nuts and self-locking in screw-nut assemblies.
Explores the multiscale mechanics of metal plasticity, covering dislocations, crystal plasticity, and atomistic plasticity, with a focus on dynamic strain aging in aluminum alloys.
Explores slope stability analysis using the limit equilibrium method and the Kerisel Chart for determining critical slip surfaces and factors of safety.
