Smart materials have drawn significant attention and interest in recent years. In particular, shape memory alloys (SMAs), a class of smart materials, are gaining importance in various fields: microsystems, biomedicine, robotics, aerospace and automotive. SMAs consist of two crystallographic phases, austenite and martensite. These types of materials...
Smart materials have brought a radical scientific shift in engineering design, mostly for highly functional and lightweight intelligent systems. Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are a class of smart materials with several wide range applications as components of adaptive structures. Due to their capability of crystallographic transformation between auste...
Crashworthiness focuses on the safety and protection of occupants. In addition, not only do energy absorbing members have to absorb sufficient collision energy, but the vehicle structure must be lightweight to improve power consumption. Nevertheless, estimating vehicle crashworthiness is experimentally expensive and time-consuming. Explicit nonline...
Within this paper methods in reducing weight and optimizing the front-end structure, by specifically targeting both new materials and redesigning the cashbox, to improve crashworthiness were investigated. This was accomplished through redesigning the cross-sectional shape of the crash box, trigger location and type of trigger used, and the use of d...
Modelling and simulation techniques are now considered an essential practice for the materials industry. In order to gain insight into factors that can affect the final properties of a particular composite system, several design criteria need to be considered to create a more realistic composite behaviour. Such criteria would include the geometrica...
Considering crashworthiness applications, the purpose of this work is to determine quantitative differences between two finite element solvers: LS-DYNA® and Abaqus®.
Graphene has a diversity of properties, making it an attractive candidate as a reinforcement material. To fully exploit these properties; robust mathematical models should be designed and developed. However, considering interactions between embedded GPLs is a challenging task. These interactions have an important contribution to the behaviour of na...
Graphene has been extensively explored to enhance functional and mechanical properties of metal matrix nanocomposites for wide-range applications due to their superior mechanical, electrical and thermal properties. This article discusses recent advances of key mechanisms, synthesis, manufacture, modelling and applications of graphene metal matrix n...
The morphology and the chemical characteristics of graphene nanoplatelets are important parameters to define the potential of these particles in various applications. In this paper we firstly conducted a market analysis to identify commercial CIG (Graphite Intercalation Compounds) with different characteristics, our selection was based on physical-...

Tailor-welded blanks (TWBs) are primarily used in the automotive industry. Popular applications include: side frames, doors, pillars and rails. The TWB concept has several disadvantages. The most important disadvantage is the effect of the weld line on the formability of the TWB. This paper investigates the weldment quality by evaluating the locali...
