Characterizing and Modeling Mechanical Properties of Nanocomposites-Review and Evaluation (2010, background): “Although the applicability of continuum mechanics (including micro mechanics) to nanocomposites has been subjected to debate [59,63], many recent works directly applying continuum mechanics to nanostructures and nanomaterials have reported meaningful results and elucidated many issues [64-73].”
Filler aggregation as a reinforcement mechanism in polymer nanocomposites (2013, methodology): “Such an analysis was performed for example in Odegard et al. (2005) using a range of interphase properties derived from atomistic simulations.”
Mechanical characterization of graphite/epoxy nanocomposites by multi-scale analysis (2007, background): “The mechanical properties of the nanocomposite [ 5 ,6] and the load-transfer between the particles and matrix [7,8] were investigated with analytical and/or numerical micromechanical models.”
Stochastic analysis of the fracture toughness of polymeric nanoparticle composites using polynomial chaos expansions (2017, methodology): “However, the radial extension of the interphase zone was predicted by Odegard et al. (2005), Yu et al. (2009) through Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations and by Le et al. (2016) through a probabilistic multiscale analysis.”
