Measurement of bitumen viscosity in the room-temperature drop experiment: student education, public outreach and modern science in one
Widdicombe, AT; Ravindrarajah, P; Sapelkin, A; Phillips, AE; Dunstan, D; Dove, MT; Brazhkin, VV; Trachenko, KSlow flow of the viscous liquid is a thought-provoking experiment that challenges students, academics and public to think about some fundamental questions in modern science. In the Queensland demonstration, the world-longest ... -
Micromechanics of Ti3C2Tx MXene reinforced poly(vinyl alcohol) nanocomposites
Dong, M; Hu, Y; Zhang, H; Bilotti, E; Pugno, N; Dunstan, D; Papageorgiou, DG (Elsevier BV, 2023-12)The key to effective mechanical reinforcement in polymer nancomposites lies within the stress transfer mechanisms and the distribution of the nanofillers within a polymer matrix. In this work, the micromechanics of Ti3C2Tx ... -
On energetic and dissipative gradient effects within higher-order strain gradient plasticity: Size effect, passivation effect, and Bauschinger effect
Hua, F; Li, Y; He, Y; Dunstan, D (Elsevier, 2021-04)The size effect, the passivation effect, and the plastic behavior under non-proportional loading in the context of bending and tension of thin foils, and a combination of compression and shear of constrained layers, are ... -
Softening of the Euler buckling criterion under discretization of compliance
Carter, D; Dunstan, D; Just, W; Bandtlow, O; San-Miguel, A -
Unexpected softness of bilayer graphene and softening of A-A stacked graphene layers
Fenwick, O; Sun, Y; Holec, D; Gehringer, D; Dunstan, D; Humphreys, C (American Physical Society, 2020-03-20)Density functional theory has been used to investigate the behavior of the π electrons in bilayer graphene and graphite under compression along the c axis. We have studied both conventional Bernal (A-B) and A-A stackings ...
