Abstract 

Designing copper–zirconium based nanowires for improving yield strength and plasticity via configuring surface atoms

Submitted by Vijay Kumar Sutrakar on

Following our previous work on Cu-Zr nanowire system, in this paper we have shown improvement in various thermo-mechanical properties of nanowire via manipulating the surface atoms. The paper titled "Designing copper–zirconium based nanowires for improving yield strength and plasticity via configuring surface atoms" by Vijay Kumar Sutrakarand D Roy Mahapatra has been published in Journal of Nanoparticle Research.

Image-Based Simulation Workshop

Submitted by Simpleware on

WORKSHOP: Image-based Simulation for Biomechanics, Materials Applications, and Reverse Engineering



This workshop is aimed at those interested in 3D reconstruction from radiology images, and in using 3D image data (as obtained from CT, Micro-CT, MRI and Ultrasound) to generate Rapid Prototyping, CAD, and Finite Element models.



Participants will learn:

•    how to generate computer models from your 3D image data

•    how to import and position CAD files in the image data
